Fee Rate

AGENCY: National Indian Gaming Commission, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given, pursuant to 25 CFR 514.2, that the 
National Indian Gaming Commission has adopted its 2013 preliminary 
annual fee rates of 0.00% for tier 1 and 0.074% (.00074) for tier 2. 
These rates shall apply to all assessable gross revenues from each 
gaming operation under the jurisdiction of the Commission. If a tribe 
has a certificate of self-regulation under 25 CFR part 518, the 2013 
preliminary fee rate on Class II revenues shall be one-half of the 
annual fee rate, which is 0.037% (.00037).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Yvonne Lee, National Indian Gaming 
Commission, 1441 L Street NW., Suite 9100, Washington, DC 20005; 
telephone (202) 632-7003; fax (202) 632-7066.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) 
established the National Indian Gaming Commission which is charged 
with, among other things, regulating gaming on Indian lands.
    The regulations of the Commission (25 CFR part 514), as amended, 
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; 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.
    The preliminary rate being adopted here is effective March 1st, 
2013 and will remain in effect until a new fee rate is adopted. 
Therefore, 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.

    Dated: March 4, 3013.
Tracie Stevens,
Chairwoman.

Associate Commissioner.
