EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR MULLALLY: Mr. Chairman and Commissioners, we also have two final orders of rulemaking. These have been previously adopted by the Commission, have been published by the Secretary of State and subjected to a public hearing and written comments and Clarence Greeno is here to explain the final orders.
MR. CLARENCE GREENO: Mr. Chairman and Commissioners, before you under Tab B you have final orders of rulemaking for 11 CSR 45-1.090 creating a definition for critical program storage media. The proposed rulemaking contains the text published in the Missouri Register. A public hearing was held in which no one appeared. We did, however, receive one letter of comment on the proposed rule. Based upon the comment from that rule, one minor adjustment was made realizing that there might be executables which we verify that are not sealed, we added wording to the effect “which may as determined by the Commission have security seals attached.” That was the only amendment made to the proposed rule. I would be happy to entertain any questions you might have.
CHAIRMAN BARTCH: Any questions?
COMMISSIONER HINRICHS: I move we approve order of rulemaking 11 CSR 45-1.090.
COMMISSIONER GANT: Second.
CHAIRMAN BARTCH: Any other discussion? If not, Angie please call the roll.

MR. GREENO: Also behind Tab B you have final order of rulemaking 11 CSR 45-5.200 Progressive Slot Machines. Again, a public hearing was held on that proposed rule, which no one appeared. One letter was received, one letter of comment from International Game Technology. Based on questions posed in that letter of comment some items were amended to better clarify those substantive changes made to the rule. You have them before you in your packet. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have on those amendments.
CHAIRMAN BARTCH: Any questions on 200?

We will have a much more time consuming agenda for that meeting, I believe, a number of hearing officer recommendations I know for sure. Unless you have any questions of us, that’s all we have.
COMMISSIONER GANT: Kevin, could you tell Mike, I got the fax on the lawsuit and the question is whether to object to St. Louis as an Entry of Appearance and . . .
