An emergency rule is an adopted rule which becomes immediately effective upon first filing with the Secretary of State and automatically expires after 150 days.

Proposed Rules are rules that are authorized and submitted to Secretary of State and Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR). Each of these rulemakings has been filed with the Secretary of State on First Notice but has not yet been finally adopted. For each rulemaking, there is a link to the edition of the Illinois Register where the rulemaking appears and a specific page citation within that edition. Under the Illinois Administrative Code, there is a maximum of one year between the date a proposed permanent rule is filed in the Illinois Register and the date it is adopted.

Minimum Internal Control Standards (MICS) are guidelines issued by the Board, which are used by each Owners Licensee and Organization Gaming Licensee to establish their own set of Internal Controls as required by the Board's Rules. As used in these MICS, the phrase Owners Licensees also refers to Organization Gaming Licensees.

Adopted Rule Section 3000.115 requires holders of Owners Licenses and Supplier Licenses to maintain records in accordance with a Records Retention Schedule.
