N.J. Admin. Code § 13:69J-1.2C

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

Section 13:69J-1.2C - Licensing of vendors doing non-gaming business

(a) Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 5:12-92.c(2), the Division may require any vendor to apply for either a casino service industry enterprise license or an ancillary casino service industry enterprise license if such application is deemed to be consistent with the public interest and policies of the Act. The Division, in its discretion, may also require any ancillary casino service industry enterprise licensee to be licensed as a casino service industry enterprise.

(b) The Division shall give written notice of the requirement to file for a casino service industry enterprise license or ancillary casino service industry enterprise license. Receipt of this written notice shall immediately trigger the requirements of N.J.S.A. 5:12-92.a and b, including the need for the issuance of transactional waivers to continue to conduct any further business.

(c) An application filed pursuant to (a) above, and any subsequent licensure that may result after investigation by the Division, shall conform to the standards of N.J.S.A. 5:12-92.a, b and c(4), as appropriate, including issuance of transactional waivers, if necessary, and shall include the applicable filing fee for the filing of such application. Any ancillary casino service industry enterprise license applicant shall receive a credit for any licensing fees already paid in the event it is ordered to file for a casino service industry enterprise license.

(d) Any vendor required to apply for a casino service industry enterprise license or ancillary casino service industry enterprise license pursuant to (a) above shall have the affirmative burden to establish its qualification by clear and convincing evidence.

(e) The Division retains jurisdiction to determine suitability for licensure even if the applicant terminates its relationship(s) with a casino licensee or applicant.

(f) Any vendor or licensee required by the Division to file an application shall do so no later than 60 days after receipt of the Division's notice; provided, however, that the Division may, upon written request from the vendor and for good cause shown, grant an additional 30 days within which to file the required application. Failure to file a completed application within this time period shall be grounds for prohibiting a vendor or licensee from conducting any business with a casino licensee and will result in the issuance of a prohibitory order which will be served on the vendor or licensee and the casino licensee.

(g) No waiver of all or any portion of the application filing time period mandated by (f) above shall be granted by the Division on the ground of economic hardship or loss to the unlicensed casino service industry in question.

(h) Any vendor prohibited from providing goods or services or conducting business on the basis of its failure to properly file an application may resume providing goods or services or conducting business 30 days following the proper filing of a casino service industry license application or ancillary casino service industry enterprise license, provided that the vendor has:

1. Been issued a transactional waiver by the Division, if required to file a casino service industry enterprise license by the Director;

2. Paid the appropriate license filing fee; and

3. Paid an additional late filing fee of $ 500.00.
