Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board--General and Operative Provisions; Board Procedures
Regulation No. 125-45 (#2561)

   On August 28, 2006, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this proposed regulation from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (Board). This rulemaking adds 58 Pa. Code Chapters 401a, 403a, 405a and 407a. The proposed regulation was published in the September 9, 2006, Pennsylvania Bulletin with a 30-day public comment period. The final-form regulation was submitted to the Commission on April 10, 2007. On May 1, 2007, the Board simultaneously tolled and resubmitted the final-form regulation to revise a definition.

   This final-form rulemaking establishes four chapters of the Board's regulations. These chapters relate to preliminary provisions, the operations and organization of the Board, the Bureau of Investigations and Enforcement and organization and access to the Board's case files.

   We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the Board (4 Pa.C.S.A. §§ 1201(f), 1202(a), 1202(b)(25) and (30) and 1206) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.

By Order of the Commission:

   This regulation is approved.

Notice of proposed rulemaking was omitted for this regulation; it will become effective upon publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   This final-omitted regulation establishes eligibility and administrative procedures for the Address Confidentiality Program under Act 188 of 2004.

   We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the OVA (23 Pa.C.S. § 6712) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.

By Order of the Commission:

   This regulation is approved.
