(A) Security and
surveillance plan. Each video lottery sales agent shall submit to the lottery,
for approval by the lottery's security director, a description of its proposed
security and surveillance plan(s). The security and surveillance plan may be
submitted as one combined plan or as a separate security plan and a separate
surveillance plan.
(1) The security and
surveillance plan shall be submitted prior to commencement
of video lottery at the video lottery sales agent's facility, and shall be updated annually.
(2) The security and surveillance plan(s)
shall address all aspects of security and surveillance, whether physical and
otherwise, as required by the director, which includes, but
may not be limited to, facility security, data security, financial
security, and disaster recovery. At a minimum,
the security and surveillance plan(s) shall include a plan to address the
following:
(a) Any areas within a video
lottery sales agent's facility, which involve or
relate to video lottery, shall be continuously monitored through the use of
closed circuit television system, or other system approved by the director, by
means which are capable of identifying conduct related to or involving video
lottery, including,
but not limited to, video lottery participants
and video lottery terminal screens. Unless the director informs a video lottery
sales agent that a video tape or other recording medium is required to be
retained for evidentiary purposes for a longer period than fourteen days, all
video tapes or other recording medium shall be retained for a period of at
least fourteen days and be available for viewing by an authorized
representative of the commission. In the event that a claim is made alleging a
violation of rules under division 3770:2 of the Administrative Code or under
Ohio or federal law, the video lottery sales agent shall retain the video tape
or other recording medium until such time that the director advises that the
video lottery sales agent is no longer required to retain the video tape or
other recording medium. The lottery reserves the right
to review all video tapes or other recordings and may require adjustments to
the monitoring system or its configuration. The cost of monitoring shall
be the responsibility of the video lottery sales agent;
(b) The commission's office of security
personnel shall have unrestricted access to all areas of video lottery sales
agent's facilities, which involve or pertain to

wagering area; and
(d) The security
and surveillance plan(s) shall include emergency procedures,

recovery procedures, and an active shooter
plan.
(3) The
security and surveillance plan(s) may be deemed an infrastructure record and/or
security record as set forth in section
149.433 of the Revised Code and
therefore may not be subject to disclosure under section
149.43 of the Revised
Code.
(4) Any updates or changes to
an approved security and surveillance plan(s),
including camera coverage, placement, and views, require prior approval
of the director unless otherwise waived by the director.
