PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose and effect of the proposed rules will be to implement Florida Statutes pertaining to the regulation of slot machine operations at pari-mutuel racing facilities and the implementation of wide area progressive (WAP) systems.
SUMMARY: The amendment to Rule 61D-14.006, F.A.C., adds wide area progressive providers to those business entities requiring a slot machine business occupational license under Section 551.107(2), F.S. The amendment to Rule 61D-14.007, F.A.C., adds wide area progressive providers to those business entities in which an independent testing laboratory is prohibited from having an interest. The amendment to Rule 61D-14.022, F.A.C., provides updates to the technical standards for slot machines, slot machine operations, and slot machine capabilities, as well as addresses wide area progressive system (WAP) slot machine games where two or more slot machine terminals are linked to substantially increase potential jackpot payouts. The updated rule also describes in additional detail the required procedures for jackpot payment. The rule has been substantially reworded to conform to plain language requirements and improve clarity of specifications in a number of technical requirement areas. Rule 61D-14.024, F.A.C., provides technical standards for access to logic compartments and interior compartments housing components that could affect the outcome of a slot machine game, including progressive systems, and requires procedures to limit access to compartment keys. The rule also provides procedures for sealing the compartments and providing access only to authorized personnel, and has been substantially reworded to conform to plain language requirements and improve clarity of specifications for technical requirement areas. Rule 61D-14.032, F.A.C., provides system and operational requirements for slot machines configured to accept and participate in both wide area and local area progressive jackpot slot machine play. Rule 61D-14.033, F.A.C., provides system and operational requirements for progressive gaming system displays and controllers used in progressive jackpot slot machine play. Rule 61D-14.034, F.A.C., addresses progressive system jackpots, the recording of information related thereto by progressive slot machines, and the modification thereof. The amendment to Rule 61D-14.037, F.A.C., adds wide area progressive slot machines to the requirements governing slot machine games with bonus features. The amendment to Rule 61D-14.038, F.A.C., relaxes the reporting requirement to semi-annual and encompasses WAP systems. The amendment to Rule 61D-14.047, F.A.C., adds progressive slot machines to the requirement that slot machines not be enabled to play following receipt of an error until its control program is authenticated. The amendment to Rule 61D-14.048, F.A.C., adds daily progressive meter reports to the reports required under the rule and specifies what must be included in a daily progressive meter report. The amendment to Rule 61D-14.073, F.A.C., adds progressive meter readings to the meter readings accounting department employees must make under the rule and specifies the requirements therefor.
OTHER RULES INCORPORATING THIS RULE: Rules 61D-14.009, 14.011, and 14.012 incorporate Rule 61D-14.006. Rule 61D-14.097 incorporates Rule 61D-14.022. Rule 61D-14.016 incorporates Rule 61D-14.024. Rule 61D-14.018 incorporates Rule 61D-14.048.
