§ 437a.10. Emergency gaming service provider.

 (a)  A slot machine licensee may utilize a gaming service provider that is not registered, certified or authorized to conduct business in accordance with §  437a.8 (relating to authorized gaming service providers list; prohibited gaming service providers) when a threat to public health, welfare or safety of the building or its occupants exists or circumstances outside the control of the slot machine licensee create an urgency of need which does not permit the delay involved in using the formal method of gaming service provider certification or registration. A slot machine licensee may not use a gaming service provider on the prohibited list.

 (b)  When using a gaming service provider that is not registered, certified or authorized to conduct business to respond to an emergency, the slot machine licensee shall:

   (1)  Immediately notify the onsite casino compliance representatives in the licensed facility of the emergency and the gaming service provider that was selected to provide emergency services.

   (2)  File a Gaming Service Provider Emergency Notification Form with the Bureau of Licensing within 72 hours after commencement of the gaming ser-vice provider’s services and a written explanation of the basis for the procurement of the emergency gaming service provider.

 (c)  An employee of the emergency gaming service provider who is providing emergency services in the licensed facility shall obtain a temporary access credential in accordance with §  435a.9a(d) (relating to gaming service provider employee temporary access credentials) prior to performing any work.

 (d)  If the slot machine licensee continues to utilize the gaming service provider after the emergency circumstances have passed or if the Bureau of Licensing determines that the circumstances did not necessitate the use of an emergency gaming service provider that was not registered, certified or on the authorized list, the slot machine license and gaming service provider shall comply with the requirements in this chapter.
