The executive secretary may request that a licensee remove all or designated cards from play or storage for the purpose of inspection. The executive secretary may conduct the inspection or may request an employee of the licensee to conduct the inspection. If the executive secretary requests an employee of the licensee to conduct the inspection, the employee must follow the procedures required by the executive secretary which must include at a minimum:
(1) Complete a work order setting forth the procedures performed and listing the tables from and time at which the cards were removed;(2) Sort the cards sequentially by suit and inspect the sides of the cards for crimps, bends, cuts, and shaving; and(3) Immediately contact the executive secretary by telephone or in person telling the executive secretary of any evidence of tampering, alteration, missing or additional cards, or anything that might indicate unfair play. The employee must thereafter complete a written report and deliver the report, copies of the completed work order, and any cards discovered to be damaged, altered, or otherwise reported pursuant to this rule to the executive secretary.S.D.
