61D-14.041: Randomness Requirements and Game Play Auditing

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT on October 6, 2008, the Division of Pari-Mutuel Wagering, Department of Business and Professional Regulation, received a petition for waiver from IGT, Inc., Petitioner, in DBPR Case No. 2008055385 (VW 2008-275). Petitioner is a slot machine manufacturer licensed pursuant to Chapter 551, Florida Statutes, whose address is 9295 Prototype Drive, Reno, Nevada 89521. Petitioner seeks a waiver of the requirements of subsection 61D-14.041(1), Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), that requires each slot machine in Florida to “utilize an internal random number generator (RNG).” Petitioner desires to market its Multi-Player Series Line slot machine in Florida, the player terminals of which utilize a common external RNG rather than an internal RNG in each terminal. The requested waiver would permit use of the external RNG for Petitioner’s Multi-Player Series Line slot machine, which in all other respects complies with or exceeds the requirements of Rule 61D-14.041, F.A.C. Any person whose substantial interests may be affected by a waiver on the subject matter of the Petition may file a petition to intervene within 14 days of the publication of this notice.

A copy of the Petition for Variance or Waiver may be obtained by contacting: Agency Clerk, Department of Business and Professional Regulation, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2202, [phone].
