Totalizator system general provisions

1. Pari-mutuel wagering utilizes a totalizator to pool wagers. The totalizator system may be located at a site, or may, subject to compliance with applicable law and rules, reside at another location other than within the state of North Dakota. 2. Wagering, subject to commission approval and compliance with applicable law and rules, may be accepted by separate totalizator systems in this or other jurisdictions and combined via communication between totalizator systems. 3. The commission may, without specific reference in these rules, utilize a designee for the purposes of certification, verification, inspection, testing, and investigation. A commission designee may be another commission or equivalent regulatory authority, a multijurisdictional group of regulatory authorities, association of regulatory authorities, or auditing, consulting, security, investigation, legal services, or other qualified entities or persons. 4. The commission may enter into multijurisdictional agreements with other regulatory authorities to facilitate certification of compliance with requirements by, and licensing of, service providers and totalizator companies. Such agreements shall, at a minimum, ensure certification and licensing requirements comparable to this jurisdiction. 5. In the event that any daily electronic files or other totalizator data provided to the commission or a third-party auditor designated by the commission for receipt of such information is found to be inaccurate, the totalizator shall provide to the commission or its third-party auditor any data files or other date in whatever form that is requested. 6. A totalizator company shall provide access by the commission or its designated representative to its facility, records, and any other information as required by the commission or its representative.
