• Record Source Categories has been
updated to include three new categories:
fingerprint cards; criminal records
history information; and, NIGC—tribal
correspondence relating to tribal
applicant decisions.
• Routine Uses of Records has been
updated to include two new uses that
will allow agency to share information
with, and coordinate a response to, a
suspected or confirmed information
breach.

Records has been updated to account for
the agency’s transition from paper to
electronic recordkeeping.
• Policies and Practices for Retention

updated to include relevant records
retention and disposition schedules that

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Congress established the NIGC under the

results of background checks for primary management officials and key
employees of Indian gaming enterprises and the issuance of tribal
licenses to them (25 U.S.C. 2710(b)(2)(F)(I) and (III)). Further, under
the IGRA, the Commission has 30 days to object to issuance of a license
by a tribe (25 U.S.C. 2710(c)(1)). Commission rules implement these
legislative provisions by (1) requiring tribes to obtain certain
information from applicants for key employee and primary management
official positions in gaming operations; (2) requiring tribes to
forward to the Commission the required information for each key
employee and primary management official; (3) reviewing and verifying
the submitted information; and (4) conducting supplementary background
investigations to the extent the Commission deems necessary. The
Commission stores this information in the current system of records.

new categories: fingerprint cards; criminal records history
information; and, NIGC--tribal correspondence relating to tribal
applicant decisions.
Routine Uses of Records has been updated to include two
new uses that will allow agency to share information with, and
coordinate a response to, a suspected or confirmed information breach.
Policies and Practices for Storage of Records has been
updated to account for the agency's transition from paper to electronic
recordkeeping.
Policies and Practices for Retention and Disposal of
Records has been updated to include relevant records retention and
disposition schedules that have been approved since the last public
