SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) 25 
U.S.C. 2701 et seq., established the National Indian Gaming Commission

approved Class III tribal gaming ordinances and the approvals thereof.
    IGRA requires all tribal gaming ordinances to contain the same 
requirements concerning Tribes' sole proprietary interest and 
responsibility for the gaming activity, use of net revenues, annual 
audits, health and safety, background investigations and licensing of

Class III tribal gaming ordinances in the Federal Register, is 
sufficient to meet the requirements of 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(2)(B). Every 
ordinance and approval thereof is posted on the Commission's website
