Sec. 5.

(a) A casino licensee may attain its established goals of expending a certain minimum percentage of the value of its purchases for goods and services by one (1) of the following:

(1) Purchasing directly from minority and women's business enterprises. The value of the purchase shall be considered for the purpose of determining attainment of the established goal.

(2) Purchasing from a nonminority or nonwomen's business enterprise under terms and conditions that establish a participation plan. If a participation plan is established, the value of the expenditures with minority or women's business enterprises, directly or through the use of participation plans, shall be attributed to the casino licensee for the purpose of determining attainment of the established goal.

(3) Purchasing directly from minority and women's business enterprises that are brokers or contracting representatives, in which case only the amount of the fees retained by the minority or women's business enterprise shall be considered for the purpose of attaining the established goal.

(b) A casino licensee may not attain more than seventy percent (70%) of each of its established goals through the use of participation plans. For purposes of this rule, and upon request by a casino licensee, all expenditures made by a construction project manager on behalf of, or as an agent of, the casino licensee, which are directly related to a construction project, shall be attributed to the casino licensee and not to a participation plan.

(c) A casino licensee may not attain more than fifty percent (50%) of each of its established goals through contracting with minority or women's business enterprises who are brokers or contracting representatives.

(d) Credit towards attainment of the established goals may be given for purchases from a certified minority or women's business enterprise whose certification is revoked or expired only if the minority or women's business enterprise is recertified before the end of the quarter following the quarter in which certification expired or was revoked. If the minority or women's business enterprise is not recertified by the end of the quarter following the quarter in which the certification expired or was revoked, no expenditures made to that minority or women's business enterprise following the expiration or revocation shall be credited toward attainment of its established goals.

(e) Until January 1, 2010, credit toward attainment of the established goals may be given for purchases from an out-of-state minority or women's business enterprise whose Indiana certification has expired, provided the minority or women's business enterprise maintains certification in its home state.
