SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA)
established the National Indian Gaming
Commission, which is charged with
regulating gaming on Indian lands.
Commission regulations (25 CFR 514)
provide for a system of fee assessment
and payment that is self-administered
by gaming operations.
Pursuant to those regulations, the
Commission is required to adopt and
communicate assessment rates and the
gaming operations are required to apply
those rates to their revenues, compute
the fees to be paid, report the revenues,
and remit the fees to the Commission.
All gaming operations within the
jurisdiction of the Commission are
required to self-administer the
provisions of these regulations, and
report and pay any fees that are due to
the Commission. Even though the
industry’s Gross Gaming Revenues
showed a significant increase in FY21
(basis for FY23’s fee calculation), it is
necessary for the Commission to
maintain the fee rate to ensure that the
agency has sufficient funding to fully
meet its statutory and regulatory
responsibilities as the gaming industry
continues to emerge from the pandemic.
In addition, it is critical for the
Commission to maintain constantly an
adequate transition carryover balance to
cover any cash flow variations.
Pursuant to 25 CFR 514, the
Commission must also review annually
the costs involved in processing
fingerprint cards and set a fee based on
fees charged by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation and costs incurred by the
Commission. Commission costs include
Commission personnel, supplies,
equipment & infrastructure costs, and
postage to submit the results to the
requesting tribe. The number of
fingerprint cards submitted to the NIGC
for processing has decreased
significantly during the pandemic. The
fingerprint processing fee increase is a
result of spreading the fixed costs
allocated to fingerprint processing over
less number of cards processed. In
addition, FY23 costs reflects the
Commission’s continued commitment to
take necessary measures to comply with
the Federal Bureau of Investigation

(FBI CJIS) requirements. These measures
are not only required, but critical to
ensure the NIGC and participating tribes
can continue to use the FBI criminal
history report information (CHRI) to
determine a key employee or primary
management official’s eligibility for a
gaming license.
