11 CSR 30-4.030 Police Agency Procedures for Furnishing Descriptions of Persons and Their Charges to MCRR and Prosecuting or Circuit Attorneys each police agency to follow when furnishing a description of a person and his/her charges to Missouri Criminal Records Repository and to prosecuting or circuit attorneys. {#sec-11-csr-30-4.030 omnilex-key=us-mo-regs-official--title-11--11 CSR 30-4.030}
(1) A police agency shall be responsible for completing a fingerprint card/form set supplied by Missouri Criminal Records Repository (MCRR) on reportable offenses as instructed in the following sections. The form set consists of a card having blocks to be filled in on both sides, and two (2) carbon copies having blocks to be filled in only on their front side. Normally the parts of the form set will not be separated until the front side has been filled in, including a complete set of fingerprints. In any event the officer or clerk making the entries on the front of the card shall verify that the same information is readable on the carbon copies. Listed as follows are procedures for police agencies to follow when taking a person into custody:
(A) Two (2) or more agencies/same offense—If peace officers from two (2) or more police agencies arrest a person for the same offense(s), the agency that will forward the information to the prosecutor or make application for warrant shall be responsible for completing the fingerprint card/form set and forward the appropriate forms to the prosecuting or circuit attorney;
(B) Single agency/prosecution—When an arresting officer releases a person s/he has arrested to a receiving officer who routinely reports to the same prosecuting or circuit attorney, the arresting officer should complete the fingerprint card/form set and forward the forms to the prosecuting or circuit attorney;
(C) Agency turned subject over to different jurisdiction—A police agency arresting a person, with or without a warrant, and releasing the person to a police agency in a different prosecutory jurisdiction for prosecution shall be responsible for completing the fingerprint card/form set and indicating in the final disposition block #19 as turned over to (TOT) or posted bond, name and address of police agency, date and warrant number if available.
The forms should be destroyed;
(D) Agency receiving subject from different jurisdiction—A police agency taking custody of a person arrested by an officer who routinely reports to a different prosecuting or circuit attorney shall also be responsible for completing a fingerprint card/form set and forwarding the disposition forms to the prosecuting or circuit attorney;
(E) Municipality/multiple counties—When peace officers arrest a person in reference to one (1) of their cases, regardless of the county of prosecution, they are responsible for completing the fingerprint card/form set and forwarding the forms to the prosecuting or circuit attorney. The agency who takes custody of the offender will not refingerprint the person. Example: Kansas City Police Department arrests a person in Jackson County in reference to a Kansas City case in Clay County. Kansas City Police Department would be responsible for completing the fingerprint card/form set and then submitting the disposition form set to the prosecuting attorney of Clay County. When Clay County authorities take the offender into custody, no additional fingerprints should be taken;
(F) Probation violation subject printed on original charge—When a peace officer arrests an individual for a probation violation and the person has been fingerprinted on the original charge, no additional fingerprints will be required. The court has agreed to include the offense cycle number (OCN) on the warrant.
If it is unknown whether the person has been fingerprinted or if additional charges are listed in conjunction with the probation violation, the fingerprint card/form set is required and forms should be forwarded to the prosecuting or circuit attorney; and (G) Arrest without warrant—If a peace officer makes an arrest in his/her jurisdiction without a warrant, s/he will fingerprint the individual and submit the forms to the prosecuting or circuit attorney for his/her action. If a warrant is issued for the person, the OCN number will be listed on the warrant. If the person is released pending issuance of the warrant, s/he need not be figerprinted when the arrest warrant is served unless additional charges are included.
(2) A police agency shall be ordered by the court to fingerprint and be responsible for completing a fingerprint card/form set on persons for which the court has pronounced sentence, if it determines that the person has not been previously fingerprinted for the same case. The police agency shall forward the fingerprint card to MCRR.
(3) The form set should be forwarded to the appropriate personnel by the arresting officer under the following conditions:
(A) A peace officer reports a reportable offense to a prosecuting or circuit attorney; and (B) When peace officers arrest a person in reference to one (1) of their cases, regardless of the county of prosecution, the arresting officer should complete the fingerprint card/form set and submit the form set to the prosecuting or circuit attorney.
(4) The form set shall be destroyed under the following conditions:
(A) Arrested subject released, information not referred to prosecuting or circuit attorney; or (B) If the person arrested is turned over to a peace officer or posted bond for prosecution in a different jurisdiction, with the exception of subsection (3)(B).

Agencies will need to account for each dissemination in a log so that the audit can be performed. The log should contain the name of the subject on whom the record is disseminated, the name of the recipient of the information, the agency he represents, whether the agency is criminal justice or not, the purpose for which the information is to be used, address of the agency, date and time.
(C) Criminal justice agencies may choose a manual or automated dissemination logging system. Agencies which are not automated and rely on other systems, such as the central repository for automated dissemination logging, must log all secondary dissemination.
Secondary dissemination is defined as “The dissemination of any CHRI response to another criminal justice agency or to an individual within another criminal justice agency or to anyone legally entitled to receive such information who is outside the original receiving agency.” These logs shall be maintained for thirteen (13) months from the date of dissemination.
(D) The reporting of a criminal justice transaction to a state, local or federal repository is not a dissemination of information.
Also agencies are not required to account for no record responses.
(5) Security of CHRI.

(B) Employees who process access and review inquiries must be cautious when a person asks to see his/her CHRI. Positive identification is required. A driver’s license with a photo may be sufficient; however if identification is questionable, fingerprints may be required.
(C) If a person has accessed and reviewed his/her CHRI and disagrees with the information, a challenge can follow. The challenge may be oral or written indicating that the record is inaccurate or incomplete and be accompanied by a corrected version.
(D) If it is determined that there is an error in the record, the agency must make the necessary correction. At the individual’s request, the agency must give him/her the names of all noncriminal justice agencies to whom the data has been disseminated. Disseminations to criminal justice agencies will not be disclosed.
(E) The correcting agency shall notify all criminal justice recipients of the corrected information.
(F) The individual is not entitled to data contained in intelligence, investigatory or other related files and shall not be construed to include any other information than that defined as CHRI.
(G) When an error in a CHRI record has been detected and the correction has been made, the correcting agency shall forward corrected copies to the central repository including a copy for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

PURPOSE: This rule establishes the requirement of county, municipal and state law enforcement agencies to submit to a Uniform Crime Reporting Quality Assurance Review to ensure the reliable reporting of crime data, to ensure compliance with the national Uniform Crime Reporting requirements, to identify strengths/weaknesses in reporting methods, to improve the accuracy in crime reporting practices, to assure the validity of crime statistics, to increase awareness of national and state procedures and guidelines and to assist agencies with customized Uniform Crime Reporting training.
(1) Each law enforcement agency in the state shall submit to a Uniform Crime Reporting Quality Assurance Review at least once every five (5) years.
(2) All records relevant to a determination of compliance with section 43.505, RSMo, or these rules shall be open to inspection by the auditors without a subpoena. Records reviewed shall not predate the review by more than one (1) year, and shall include calls for service, complaint cards, investigative reports, arrest and booking records, or any other records required to determine agency compliance with 43.505, RSMo.
(3) For overall unsatisfactory findings, the Uniform Crime Reporting program manager may send a letter to the chief executive officer at the agency, specifying areas of noncompliance. The letter will request a response in writing within thirty (30) days detailing the corrective action the agency will take and a projected date of compliance. A follow-up review will then be scheduled to ensure noncompliant topic areas have been corrected. If an agency fails to take corrective action, a report shall be delivered to the director of public safety at the end of the review cycle to notify the director the data from this agency is not compliant with state or national program standards. Data received during a specific time frame may also be identified as questionable within the state data repository until it is corrected by the agency.

Chapter 18 Crime Victim's Compensation
11 CSR 30-18.010 Rules Governing Crime Victims’ Compensation {#sec-11-csr-30-18.010 omnilex-key=us-mo-regs-official--title-11--11 CSR 30-18.010}
PURPOSE: This rule sets forth requirements for filing and pursuing claims under Chapter 595, RSMo.
(1) Definitions.
(A) All terms in this rule shall have the same meaning as in Chapter 595, RSMo.
(B) A “compensable crime” is the crime that is the subject of a claim for compensation.
(2) Filing of Documents.
(A) Unless otherwise specified in this rule, any document filed with the Crime Victims’ Compensation Program of the Department of Public Safety, Office of the Director (program) is considered filed on the date the document is received by the program.
(B) Documents received by mail are considered filed on the postmark date.
(C) Any document requiring a signature may be signed electronically.
(3) Review of Claims. It is the responsibility of the claimant to prove to the satisfaction of the program that it is more likely than not that the physical, emotional, or mental harm or trauma giving rise to the application, and the expense for which compensation is sought, is caused by a compensable crime under section 595.010.1(5), RSMo, that is the subject of the application.
(4) Supporting Documents.
(A) No compensation may be paid without proper documentation.
(B) Claimants are to produce any document or information requested by the program as necessary to support the claim.
(C) Following the initial filing of a claim, if a claimant fails to provide requested information, the claim may be denied.
(D) In cases involving the death of the victim, the claimant shall submit a death certificate.
(E) Claimants shall promptly provide, in writing, their current contact information, including mailing address, phone number and/or email address to the program. The claimant is responsible for informing the program of any change in contact information.
Failure to do so may result in denial of the claim.
(5) Cooperation. All claimants are to cooperate with the program and its representatives.
Lack of cooperation is grounds for claim denial.
(6) Reduction.
(A) Contributory conduct.
-
If, through consent, provocation, incitement, or negligence, the victim contributed to the infliction of the victim’s injury or death, the claim shall be denied.
-
In order to ensure consistency in awards, no partial reduction in the amount of compensation may be made due to contributory conduct by the victim.
-
Factors to be considered when determining whether a victim contributed to the conduct include, but are not limited to:
A. Whether the victim’s actions directly and substantially caused the offender’s actions;
B. Whether the victim’s misconduct was willfully part of a continuous flow of events leading to the crime and the victim’s involvement was reasonably avoidable;
C. Whether it was reasonably foreseeable that the victim’s actions would cause the offender to inflict an injury on the victim; and D. Whether the victim’s participation in the commission of a potential crime was the result of threat, force, coercion, or control.
- Determinations regarding contributory conduct shall be made on basis of facts and substantial evidence.
(B) Fundraising and crowdsourcing.
-
Payments made to claimants shall be reduced by any amount received as a result of fundraising on behalf of the victim. Such sources include, but are not limited to, memorial funds, in-person fundraisers, and fundraising from websites such as GoFundMe.
-
In order to determine whether fundraising has been used to pay for otherwise compensable expenses, and thus constitutes a collateral source, the program may request any documentation necessary to determine the extent to which a claimant has received funding from such efforts. If the program cannot establish that the fundraising has paid for otherwise compensable expenses, then no reduction in payments may occur.
(C) Unrelated services. If expenses for services unrelated to a compensable crime are submitted by a claimant, those expenses shall not be reimbursed.
(7) Maximum Award Amounts. Maximum award amounts are set in Chapter 595, RSMo. The following are the current maximum award amounts:
(A) Reasonable and necessary expenses actually incurred for preparation and burial in the event of death, including funeral expenses: five thousand dollars ($5,000);
(B) Actual loss of earnings or support from gainful employment: four hundred dollars ($400) per week;
(C) Attorney fees related to filing of Crime Victims’ Compensation (CVC) application: up to fifteen percent (15%) of total award; and (D) Total for any claim, including funeral expenses, lost earnings, out-of-pocket losses, attorney fees, and all other categories of expenses: twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000).
(8) Determination of Lost Earnings or Support.
(A) In determining whether to award lost earnings or support to a victim or a dependent of a victim, the program shall consider whether the victim was gainfully employed at the time of the crime.
(B) In order to make this determination, the program may request and consider the following documentation:
-
Documentation of wages, including pay stubs;
-
Federal or state income tax returns, including any forms showing estimated taxes;
-
A document releasing the victim to return to work, signed by a medical provider or a psychiatric treatment or counseling service provider, who treated or examined the victim for injuries caused by a compensable crime; or 4. Any other document that would demonstrate gainful employment.
(C) Lost earnings or support may include compensation in instances where a victim is unable to maintain employment as a result of the crime.
(D) Lost earnings or support may include earnings lost by a claimant as a result of participating in the criminal justice process, such as earnings lost due to meeting with officers or attending or participating in court proceedings.
(9) Determination of Out-of-Pocket Loss.
(A) An “out-of-pocket loss” is an unreimbursed or otherwise unreimbursable expense or indebtedness reasonably incurred. Out-ofpocket loss does not include loss of earnings or support.
(B) The following items are eligible for reimbursement as out-of-pocket loss if incurred as a result of a compensable crime:
- Temporary lodging.
A. Temporary lodging may be reimbursed when a reasonable claimant would feel fear or apprehension if the claimant were to return to the claimant’s place of residence, and such fear or apprehension is related to a compensable crime.
B. Reimbursement may only be made for actual expenses of up to fourteen (14) days of temporary lodging, incurred at locations open to the general public that generally charge for accommodation. Examples of such locations are hotels; motels; bunkhouses; dormitories; campgrounds; and shortterm rentals in private residences offered through electronic platforms such as Airbnb, HomeAway, or VRBO.
C. No reimbursement may be made for lodging expenses exceeding the rate adopted by the State of Missouri, Office of Administration for state employee travel expenses or the General Services Association’s Continental United States (CONUS) per diem rates, whichever is lower;
-
Replacement costs for clothing and bedding held as evidence;
-
Replacement or repair of locks at the victim’s residence or other involved residence; and 4. Dependent care to allow victims to participate in criminal justice activities or secure medical treatment and rehabilitation services, when such care would not have been incurred but for the compensable crime. The care shall be provided by providers licensed by or registered with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, the Missouri Department of Social Services, or a provider licensed by a similar entity to provide such care in the state in which the service is provided.
(C) The program shall develop a schedule of the amounts that are eligible for reimbursement pursuant to this section. This schedule shall be reviewed and updated at least once per state fiscal year.
(D) The following expenses shall not be allowed as out-of-pocket losses:
-
Pain and suffering;
-
Any expense not reasonably resulting from a compensable crime;
-
Any expense eligible for payment from another payer, such as insurance or other benefit programs, or fundraising or crowdsourcing; and 4. Any expense not listed in subsection (A) of this section.
(E) This section shall apply to any claim regarding a crime committed on or after the effective date of these rules. Claims arising from crimes committed prior to the effective date of this section are ineligible for reimbursement of losses under this section.
(10) Offer of Compensation and Award.
(A) Offer of compensation.
-
An “offer of compensation” or “offer” is notification of a determination as to the claimant’s eligibility for compensation and the anticipated amount of such compensation, if any.
-
Once the program issues an offer, the offer is final.
-
The program may rescind an offer at any time for ineligibility.
-
Acceptance of an offer does not establish a contract between the claimant and the program.
-
The program shall adopt procedures to provide claimants adequate notification of offers and document such notification. Such procedures shall be made publicly available upon request.
(B) Disbursement of award.
- When disbursing an award, proceeds are applied in the following order:
A. Compensation paid to claimants, in the following order:
(I) Loss of income or support; and (II) Other expenses paid by the claimant; and B. Outstanding crime-related expenses to be paid directly to providers.
(I) The program may prorate the remaining amount of the award among providers after other compensation awarded has been deducted.
(II) If no response is received by the program within thirty (30) days of issuing an offer of compensation, the program may pay expenses compensable under this paragraph. Such expenses shall be debited against the maximum award amount. Once the maximum award amount is reached, no further payment will be made.
- The program is not bound by any agreements between providers and claimants regarding priority of expenses.
(C) If the victim is legally incompetent, the program may require that a conservatorship be established and the award be delivered to the conservator.
(11) Attorneys.
(A) Claimants may be represented before the program by a licensed attorney. The attorney is to file a notice of appearance.
(B) Completion of the attorney information
section on the Application for Crime Victims’ Compensation form is considered the same as filing a notice of appearance.
(C) If an award of attorney fees is made pursuant to section 595.025.4, RSMo, such fees are considered awarded concurrently with other compensation awarded in the order of priority set in section (9) of this rule. For administrative convenience, the program may choose to pay such compensation in a lump sum at any time prior to closing a claim.
(12) Death of Victim During Claims Process.
If a person eligible for compensation pursuant to section 595.020.1(1) or (2), RSMo, files a claim for compensation and subsequently dies from causes unrelated to the crime, the program shall terminate proceedings on the claim, and no further compensation shall be paid.
(13) Expenses for Victims of Domestic Violence. The program shall consider compensation for victims of domestic violence, as such term is defined in section 455.010, RSMo, with a concern for their safety. No reduction in compensation may occur due to a potential collateral source of payment for expenses when— (A) A claimant has insurance or other similar benefits provided as a result of the claimant’s relationship with the offender (a “shared benefits plan”); and (B) The claimant fears harm if the claimant requests payment of expenses through the shared benefits plan.
(14) Reporting of Crimes. The following terms contained in section 595.030, RSMo, are defined as follows:
(A) “Proper authorities” for reporting purposes are the following:

PURPOSE: This rule describes the organization and methods of operation of the office of the State Fire Marshal.
(1) The Office of the State Fire Marshal was created in 1972 by the 76th General Assembly. With the enactment of the Omnibus State Reorganization Act of 1974, the office was transferred to the Department of Public Safety on July 1, 1974.
(2) The state fire marshal is appointed by the governor, with the advice and consent of the senate. Responsible to the director of public safety, the state fire marshal is charged with the administration and enforcement of sections 320.200–320.270, RSMo.
(3) One function of the office of the Division of Fire Safety is to investigate suspicious fires and explosions and to develop information which will lead to prosecution for criminal fires. This active investigation and prosecution of incendiary fires is aimed at the apprehension of arsonists and the deterrence of other fires.
(4) The office of the Division of Fire Safety is also responsible for maintaining a state fire loss reporting system. This system is based upon reports submitted by each fire department in the state on every incident for which fire department equipment is used. The compiled data is disseminated in an annual report and is valuable in identifying Missouri’s fire prevention programs.
(5) On October 10, 1973, the Bureau of Safety and Fire Prevention was transferred from the Department of Public Health and Welfare to the office of the Division of Fire Safety. The transfer made the state fire marshal responsible for assisting institutional fire and safety supervisors in the review of building plans for fire prevention features and for providing technical assistance in the preparation of rules pertaining to fire prevention.
(6) The Division of Fire Safety is also responsible for fire safety inspections for the Divisions of Family Services and Mental Health and it serves in an advisory capacity for the Division of Aging. This data also appears in the annual report.
(7) The division, charged on September 28, 1985, with the regulation of fireworks manufacturing and sales in Missouri, now regulates all licensing and enforcement of the fireworks industry.
(8) On November 12, 1986, enforcement of Boilers & Pressure Vessels Act began. The Division of Fire Safety conducts safety inspections and certification of boiler and pressure vessels.
(9) On August 28, 1993, the division was authorized by sections 292.600–292.625, RSMo to administer the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act. This act which also creates the Missouri Emergency Response Commission (MERC) sets up a framework for local government to better prepare for hazardous chemical emergencies.
(10) Any person desiring information or assistance on any matter falling within the scope of the office of the Division of Fire Safety should contact the Division of Fire Safety, P.O. Box 844, 301 W. High, Harry S Truman State Office Building, Jefferson City, MO 65102, (314) 751-2930.

(3) A Class B licensee may implement any of the following options at a Blackjack table provided that the casino licensee complies with the notice requirements contained in 11 CSR 45-5.060:
(A) Persons who have not made a wager on the first round of play may not enter the game on a subsequent round of play until a reshuffle of the cards has occurred;
(B) Persons who have not made a wager on the first round of play may be permitted to enter the game, but may be limited to wagering only the minimum limit posted at the table until a reshuffle of the cards has occurred;
(C) Persons who, after making a wager on a given round of play, decline to wager on any subsequent round of play may be precluded from placing any further wagers until a reshuffle of the cards has occurred;

(4) If a Class B licensee implements any of the options in
section (3) of this rule, the option shall be uniformly applied to all persons at the table; provided, however that if a Class B licensee has implemented either of the options in subsection (3)(C) or (D) of this rule, an exception may be made for a patron who temporarily leaves the table if, at the time the patron leaves, the Class B licensee agrees to reserve the patron’s spot until his or her return.
(5) Immediately prior to the commencement of play and after any shuffle of the cards, the dealer shall require that the cards be cut in a manner set forth in the Class B licensee’s internal controls as approved by the commission. Such internal controls shall be subject to the following conditions:
(A) If the “Bart Carter Shuffle” is utilized and the cards in the discard rack exceed approximately one (1) deck in number, the dealer shall continue dealing the cards until that round of play is completed after which he shall remove the cards from the discard rack and shuffle those cards so that they are randomly intermixed. After the cards taken from the discard rack are shuffled, they shall be split into three (3) separate stacks and each stack shall be inserted into pre-marked locations within the remaining decks contained in the dealing shoe.
(6) A floor supervisor or above may direct the dealer to shuffle the cards after any round of play is completed and all wagers have been resolved.
(7) After the cards have been cut and before any cards have been dealt, a floor supervisor may require the cards to be recut if he or she determines that the cut was performed improperly or in any way that might affect the integrity or fairness of the game. If a recut is required, the cards shall be recut, at the Class B licensee’s option, by the player who last cut the cards, or by the next person entitled to cut the cards, as determined by the Class B licensee’s internal controls.

PURPOSE: This rule establishes procedures for the handling of table game cards within the gaming operation.
(1) When decks of table game cards are received for use in the facility from a licensed supplier, the boxes shall be promptly inspected and the decks shall be stored in a primary or secondary storage area by at least (2) employees, one (1) of whom shall be from the table games department and the other from the security department. The primary card storage area shall be located in a secure place, the location and physical characteristics of which shall be approved by the commission.
Secondary storage areas, if needed, shall be used for the storage of surplus cards. Cards maintained in secondary storage areas shall be transferred to the primary card storage area before being distributed to the pits or tables. All secondary storage areas shall be located in secure areas, the location and physical characteristics of which shall be approved by the commission.
(2) All primary and secondary storage areas shall have two (2) separate locks. The security department shall be the authorized user of one (1) key and the pit manager, poker room manager, or supervisor thereof in the organizational hierarchy shall be the authorized user of the other key.
(3) Immediately prior to the commencement of each gaming day and at other times as may be necessary, the pit manager, poker room manager, or supervisor thereof, in the presence of a security officer, shall remove the appropriate number of decks of table games cards from the primary card storage area for that gaming day.
(4) Once removed from the primary card storage area, the pit manager, poker room manager, or supervisor thereof, in the presence of a security officer, shall take the decks to the pit(s) and distribute the decks to the floor supervisor(s) for distribution to the dealer at each table.
(5) The pit manager, poker room manager, or supervisor thereof, shall place extra decks into a single locked compartment of a pit stand located within the pit(s). The floor supervisor or above shall have access to the extra decks of cards to be used for that gaming day.
(6) Cards will not be moved outside of the enclosed or encircled area without a security escort and notification to surveillance except when being collected by security.
(7) Prior to being placed into play, all decks shall be inspected by the dealer, and the entire inspection observed by a floor supervisor or above. Card inspection at the gaming table shall require each deck to either be sorted into sequence and into suit or processed through an automated shuffler or similar device capable of reading the card faces to ensure that all cards are in the deck. For decks that may be used more than once, the inspection shall also require the dealer to check the back of each card to ensure that it is not flawed, scratched, or marked in any way. Card inspection for games may be conducted at an alternate table in the same pit or at an alternate table in a closed pit. In these instances, the floor supervisor or above shall notify surveillance and surveillance shall record on the surveillance shift log both the table number where the card inspection is conducted and the table number at which the cards are to be placed into play.
(A) If, after checking the cards, the dealer finds that a card is unsuitable for use, a floor supervisor or above shall bring a replacement card from the replacement deck or replace the entire deck.
(B) The unsuitable card(s) shall be placed in a transparent sealed envelope or container, identified by the table number, date, and time removed from the table and shall be signed by the dealer and floor supervisor assigned to that table. The floor supervisor or above shall maintain the envelope or container in a secure place within the pit until collected by a security officer.
(8) When cards are placed in play, the Class B licensee shall record on each deck/multi-deck box the table number, the date, and the time the cards were placed on the table for use.
(9) All envelopes and containers used to hold or transport cards collected by security shall be transparent.
(A) The envelopes or containers and the method used to seal them shall be designed or constructed so that any tampering shall be evident.
(B) The envelopes or containers and seals shall be approved by the commission.
(10) Any cards which have been opened and placed on a gaming table shall be changed at least once every twenty-four (24) hours. In addition— (A) Cards opened for use on games in which dealing procedures require the cards to be dealt only once (e.g., baccarat) shall be changed upon the completion of each shoe;
(B) Cards opened for use on any table game in which the cards are handled by the players shall be changed at least every six (6) hours.
(11) Card(s) damaged during the course of play shall be replaced by the dealer who shall request a floor supervisor or above to bring a replacement card(s) or deck/multi-deck from the pit stand.
(A) The damaged card(s) shall be placed in a sealed envelope, identified by table number, date, and time removed from the table and shall be signed by the dealer and the floor supervisor or above who brought the replacement card to the table.
(B) The floor supervisor or above shall maintain the envelope or container in a secure place within the pit until collected by a security officer.
(12) At the end of the gaming day or, in the alternative, at least once each gaming day at the same time each day, as designated by the licensee and approved by the commission, and at other times as may be necessary, the floor supervisor or above shall collect all used cards.
(A) These cards shall be counted down manually by the dealer or by an automated shuffler and placed in the original deck/multi-deck boxes. The time the decks were removed from the table and an indication as to whether or not the cards were handheld shall be recorded on the deck/multi-deck boxes. The boxes shall be placed in a sealed envelope or container. For games in which dealing procedures require cards to be dealt only once, the sealed envelopes or containers shall be easily distinguishable from those used for all other table games. The bags will be conspicuously labeled as containing single-use cards.
(B) A label shall be attached to each envelope or container which identifies the table number, date, and time and shall be signed by the dealer and floor supervisor assigned to the table.
(C) The floor supervisor or above shall maintain the envelopes or containers in a secure place within the pit until collected by a security officer.
(13) The licensee shall remove any cards from use any time there is indication of tampering, flaws, scratches, marks, or other defects that might affect the integrity or fairness of the game, or at the request of the commission.
(14) At the end of each gaming day or, in the alternative, at least once each gaming day, as designated by the licensee in the internal controls and approved by the commission, and at other times as may be necessary, a table game supervisor or above shall collect all extra decks of cards. All extra decks with broken seals shall be placed in a sealed envelope or container, with a label attached to each envelope or container which identifies the date and time and is signed by the floor supervisor and the pit manager or above.
(15) At the end of the gaming day or, in the alternative, at least once each gaming day at the same time each day, as designated by the licensee in the internal controls and approved by the commission, and at other times as may be necessary, a security officer shall collect all decks in the pit(s), including sealed decks, sealed envelopes or containers with damaged cards, decks used during the gaming day, and decks with broken seals. The collection shall be recorded on the Card and Dice Collection Log. All sealed decks shall be returned directly to the primary storage area. The security officer shall return the envelopes or containers and the log to the card inspection room.
(16) When the envelopes or containers of used cards and reserve cards with broken seals are returned to the security department, they shall be inspected within forty-eight (48) hours by a member of the security department who has been trained in proper card inspection procedures. The cards will be inspected for tampering, marks, alterations, missing or additional cards, or anything that might indicate unfair play.
(A) With the exception of cards which are changed upon the completion of each shoe and dealt only once, all cards used in table games in which the cards are handled by the player shall be inspected. Cards that are changed upon completion of each shoe and are dealt only once shall be recorded separately on the Card Inspection Log and are not required to be inspected.
(B) In other table games, if less than three hundred (300) decks are used in the gaming day, at least ten percent (10%) of those decks will be selected at random to be inspected. If three hundred (300) or more decks are used that gaming day, at least five percent (5%) of those decks but no fewer than thirty (30) decks will be selected at random to be inspected.
(C) The licensee shall also inspect— 1. Any cards which the commission requests the licensee to remove for the purpose of inspection; and 2. Any cards the licensee removed for indication of tampering.
(D) The procedures for inspecting all decks required to be inspected under this subsection shall, at a minimum, include:
-
The sorting of cards sequentially by suit or using an automated deck checking device to establish all cards are present;
-
The inspection of the backs of the cards with an ultraviolet light; and 3. The inspection of the sides of the cards for crimps, bends, cuts, and shaving.
(E) The individuals performing said inspection shall complete the Card Inspection Log which shall detail the procedures performed and list the tables from which the cards were removed and the results of the inspection. The individual shall sign the form upon completion of the inspection procedures.
(F) Evidence of tampering, marks, alterations, missing, or additional cards, or anything that might indicate unfair play discovered at this time, or at any other time, shall be reported to the commission by the completion and delivery of a Card Discrepancy Report. All Card/Dice Discrepancy Reports generated for the cards for each gaming day shall be delivered prior to or immediately following the inspection process for that gaming day.
-
The report shall accompany the card(s) when delivered to the commission.
-
Security shall maintain the second part of the discrepancy report.

-
The employee conducting this inventory shall make an entry and sign the Cards/Dice Inventory Ledger in a manner that clearly distinguishes this count as the independent inventory.
-
Any discrepancies shall immediately be reported to the commission agent on duty.
(18) Where cards in an envelope or container are inspected and found to be without any indication of tampering marks, alterations, missing, or additional cards, or anything that might indicate unfair play, those cards shall be destroyed or cancelled.

PURPOSE: This rule establishes the standards for EGD statistical performance.
(1) Gaming equipment suppliers shall— (A) Provide the volatility index (VI) on all Probability Accounting Report (PAR) sheets. The volatility index shall be calculated at ninety-five percent (95%) confidence level and at one- (1-) line played, or the EGD minimum bet where applicable. For EGDs with non-linear paytables, the bet with the lowest payout shall be used. The calculations shall be accomplished by utilizing the below formulas:
VI = κσ Where κ equals the z score for the required confidence level and σ is the standard deviation for the game.
The standard deviation is calculated as follows:
Net Pay = the amount of each individual pay divided by the number of credits wagered or the total win amount of one wagered game, including all wins in any bonus rounds, divided by the number of credits wagered E.V. = the payback percentage for the game Probability = probability of each Net Pay (B) Calculate PAR sheets utilizing theoretical analysis where feasible. When the Return To Player (RTP) percentage cannot be feasibly computed using theoretical analysis, the RTP percentage shall be computed such that the half-width of the ninety-five percent (95%) confidence interval is not more than .01%;
(C) Obtain written authorization from the commission prior to submitting any EGDs that support features which introduce independent VIs, separate from the base game VI, to an independent testing laboratory (ITL);
(D) Ensure each EGD payout that is calculated into the PAR sheet’s RTP for the game increments the appropriate coin-out, attendant-paid jackpot, attendant-paid progressive payout, or machine-paid progressive payout meter to allow for the analysis of game performance for all EGD software submitted for approval after January 1, 2014. Any features not calculated into the PAR sheet’s RTP of the game shall not increment these meters, unless otherwise approved by the commission;
(E) Ensure all base game, bonus, and progressive winnings from a wager are aggregated to determine whether the EGD payout is a reportable and/or taxable event requiring the EGD to lock up, allowing for the preparation of a W-2G and state withholdings as required by section 313.826, RSMo;
(F) Provide to the commission and Class B licensees a PAR sheet for each game theme and any additional products which utilize a random number generator (RNG) to determine game outcome. PAR sheets shall list the software identification number of the product for which the PAR sheet applies and each paytable shall include— 1. The minimum and maximum theoretical RTP;
-
An explanation of how the expected theoretical RTP was calculated for games of skill/strategy;
-
Identification of each winning combination and its award value;
-
Volatility Index; and 5. Standard confidence intervals at a confidence level of ninety-five percent (95%) with each interval showing 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000, 10,000,000, and 100,000,000 games played;
(G) Provide to the commission the following supporting documentation for each game theme and any additional products which utilize an RNG to determine game outcome:
-
Identification of available and valid configuration options, including payline options, denominations supported, maximum bets supported, bet per line options, mandatory feature or bonus bets, and optional feature or bonus bets;
-
Progressive awards, if offered, including— A. Identification of each progressive supported;
B. The recommendation or required reset value;
C. The default incrementation rate; and D. The odds of winning each progressive;
-
List of symbols as placed on each reel strip, including actual reel stop positions for each symbol;
-
Identification of the base game top award and the odds of winning the base game top award; and 5. Identification of and frequency of obtaining all features and bonuses; and (H) Calculate the theoretical payout percentage of strategy card games such as video poker using optimal strategy.
(2) ITLs shall— (A) Independently verify the VI and RTP percentage, then detail the findings in the certification letter;
(B) Provide standard confidence intervals at a confidence level of ninety-nine percent (99%) in the certification letters using this formula— with the number of games played for each interval being 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000, 10,000,000, and 100,000,000; and (C) Calculate the theoretical payout percentage of strategy card games such as video poker using optimal strategy.

- Any table game offering the jackpot to which the licensee distributes the incremental amount does not require that more money be played on a single play to win the jackpot than the table game from which the incremental amount is distributed; and 3. The distribution is completed within thirty (30) days after the progressive jackpot is removed from play or within a longer period as the commission for good cause may approve; or (E) The commission for good cause approves in writing a reduction, elimination, distribution, or procedure not otherwise described in this section.
(3) Licensees shall preserve the records required by this rule for at least five (5) years after they are made unless the commission approves otherwise in writing. The records should be stored in a location acceptable to the commission.
(4) During the normal mode of progressive table games, the progressive controller, or other approved device, must continuously monitor each table gaming position on the link for the progressive amounts wagered and must multiply the accepted amounts by the rate of progression in order to determine the correct amounts to apply to the progressive jackpot. The progressive display must be constantly updated, in a manner approved in writing by the commission, as play on the link is continued.
(5) Progressive games shall not be used across multiple table games unless— (A) The progressive monitoring system separately and accurately accounts for the total number of progressive wagers for each table game and all games offered for play contribute to the progressive jackpot;
(B) The odds of attaining the winning combination are the same for each game; and (C) Each game requires the same wager amount to win the progressive jackpot.
(6) The odds of winning a progressive jackpot shall not be greater than one in fifty million (1:50,000,000) unless specifically approved in writing by the commission.
(7) Each progressive controller must be housed in a secure, locked location which allows only authorized accessibility and which contains an EGD Machine Entry Access Log (MEAL Book) that is completed by any person gaining access to the secured location.

After verification the storage medium shall be secured in the controller with a commission security seal.
The security seal must be affixed by and may only be broken and removed by an authorized commission agent. Normal operation of progressive gaming devices notwithstanding, communication to a progressive controller shall be permitted only by authorized personnel through access to the controller’s secured location and who document such access and the
purpose therefore on the MEAL Book.
(8) Each type of progressive game must have a unique key used to reset the progressive meter(s) or another reset mechanism (9) Unless the commission has approved the payment of prizes by installments, a licensee who has a progressive table game must maintain minimum cash reserves in accordance with
11 CSR 45-8.150. The commission must approve all such cash reserves. {#sec-11-csr-45-8.150. omnilex-key=us-mo-regs-official--title-11--11 CSR 45-8.150.}

11 CSR 45-8.060 Audits {#sec-11-csr-45-8.060 omnilex-key=us-mo-regs-official--title-11--11 CSR 45-8.060}
PURPOSE: This rule establishes standards for audits.
(1) Independent certified public accountants (C.P.A.s) registered or licensed in Missouri under Chapter 326, RSMo, shall conduct quarterly and annual audits of each licensee, as follows:
(A) On a quarterly calendar basis, except as noted— 1. Audit the respective quarter’s adjusted gross receipts and related taxes from gambling games, and total number and amount of fees received from admissions in order to report on the fair presentation of such amounts. A reconcilement of these audited amounts to similar amounts in monthly financial reports required by 11 CSR 45-8.050 shall be provided;
- Consider, in connection with the audit of adjusted gross receipts and admission fees referred to in paragraph (1)(A)1., the related internal control structure and report whether there exists any material weaknesses and report any reportable conditions identified.
This evaluation shall include, at a minimum, walk-throughs of the internal control system, inquiries of licensee personnel, examination of supporting documents and unannounced observations of pit activity and table games and electronic gaming device drop and count procedures. For purposes of these procedures, unannounced means that no officers, directors, or employees of the licensee are given advance information regarding the dates or times of the observations; and 3. Report on compliance of the licensee’s operating procedures and written system of internal controls with the requirements of 11 CSR 45-9. Whenever, in the opinion of the independent C.P.A., the licensee’s operating procedures or written system of internal controls has deviated from the minimum internal control standards or variations to the standards approved by the commission, the report shall enumerate these deviations, regardless of materiality; and (B) On an annual basis— 1. Report on reportable conditions found during the annual audit of the licensee’s financial statements. A reportable condition shall be defined as a significant deficiency in the design or operation of the internal control structure, which would adversely affect the licensee’s ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of management in the financial statements. Reportable conditions that are also material weaknesses shall be identified as such in the report; and 2. Audit, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the licensee’s annual financial statements covering all financial activities of the licensee’s operation, including a physical count of all assets inventoried on the Main Bank/Vault Accountability form in order to report on the fair presentation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The annual count of assets shall be performed within thirty (30) days of the fiscal year end. The commission shall be notified at least thirty (30) days prior to the annual count. The audited annual financial statements must be prepared in a format consistent with the reporting requirements under 11 CSR 45-8.050(2). Unless the commission approves otherwise in writing, these statements must be prepared on a comparative
basis. If the licensee or a person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the licensee owns or operates room, food or beverage facilities at the establishment, the financial statements must cover those operations as well as gaming operations;
(C) Sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of the annual financial audit, the independent C.P.A. shall submit to the commission a detailed written audit plan. The audit plan shall include a complete description of procedures to be performed by the licensee’s internal auditor, if applicable. At its discretion, the commission may require the independent C.P.A. to perform additional testing and/or procedures; and (D) The licensee’s internal auditor may provide direct assistance to the independent C.P.A. during the annual financial audit only pursuant to commission approval of the audit plan.
(2) The licensee shall prepare and send to the commission a written response to the independent C.P.A. reports required by paragraphs (1)(A)2. and 3., (1)(B)1. and 2. The response shall indicate in detail the licensee’s statement addressing each item and corrective actions taken.
(3) One (1) hard copy or an electronic copy of the reports required by section (1) shall be received by the commission or postmarked, no later than the required filing date.
(A) Quarterly reports shall be due not later than ninety (90) calendar days after the last day of the quarter; and (B) Annual reports shall be due not later than ninety (90) calendar days after the last day of the licensee’s fiscal year or ten (10) days after Form 10-K is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, whichever comes first.
(4) In the event of a license termination, change in business entity, or a change in the percentage of ownership of more than twenty percent (20%), the licensee or former licensee, not later than ninety (90) days after the event, shall submit to the commission four (4) copies of audited financial statements covering the period since the period covered by the previous statement. If a license termination, change in business entity, or a change in the percentage of ownership of more than twenty percent (20%) occurs within ninety (90) days after the end of business year for which a statement has not been submitted, the licensee may submit statements covering both the business year and the final period of business.
(5) If a licensee changes its business year, the licensee shall prepare and submit audited financial statements to the commission covering the stub period from the end of the previous business year to the beginning of the new business year not later than ninety (90) days after the end of the stub period or incorporate the financial results of the stub period in the statements for the new business year.
(6) Delays in mailing, mail pickup, and postmarkings are the licensee’s responsibility.
(7) The commission may request additional information and documents from either the licensee or the licensee’s C.P.A., through the licensee, regarding the financial statements or the services performed by the accountant.
Failure to submit the requested information or documents is an unsuitable method of operation.
(8) All of the audits and reports required by this rule, and any special audits of a licensee required by the commission or its director, shall be prepared at the sole expense of the licensee.
(9) Any audits conducted in accordance with this rule shall be conducted by independent C.P.A.s registered or licensed in Missouri under Chapter 326, RSMo.
(10) The term independent as used in section (9) of this rule is consistent with definitions set forth by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or both, to the extent applicable.

11 CSR 45-8.130 Tips and Gifts {#sec-11-csr-45-8.130 omnilex-key=us-mo-regs-official--title-11--11 CSR 45-8.130}
PURPOSE: This rule establishes regulations regarding the acceptance of tips and gifts.
(1) Except as provided in this rule, no occupational licensee may accept a tip, gift, or loan from any player or patron.
(2) Level II occupational licensees may accept tips for casino-related services performed by the licensee, or paid leave based on work, that is performed in a nonsupervisory capacity as a dealer, poker dealer, cage cashier, slot attendant, food and beverage personnel, valet, ticketing personnel, housekeeping, environmental services (EVS), or other positions as approved by the director.
(3) Occupational license applicants or occupational licensees eligible to accept tips shall receive such tips only in the form of currency, chips, and tickets.
(4) No occupational license applicant or occupational licensee shall solicit any tip, gift, or loan from any player, patron, or vendor of the Class B licensee where the occupational licensee is employed or working. This in no way prohibits an occupational licensee with the written consent of the general manager or the general manager’s designee of the Class B licensee from soliciting a vendor for the purposes of a gift to a charitable or civic event or fundraiser or allowing the name of a licensee from appearing on a general invitation or solicitation.
(5) No dealers, poker dealers, cage cashiers, or slot attendants shall accept currency from any player or patron except as a tip and only if the Class B licensee allows such a practice and has provided procedures for accepting such tips in its internal controls which have been approved by the commission. All tips given to dealers, poker dealers, cage cashiers, and slot attendants shall be— (A) Immediately deposited into a transparent locked box reserved for that purpose except that chips received at table games and poker games may first be immediately placed in a color up tube if approved internal controls are in place for such action. If nonvalue chips are received at a roulette table, the marker button indicating their specific value at that time shall not be removed or changed until after a dealer in the presence of a supervisor has converted the nonvalue chips into value chips which are immediately deposited in a transparent locked box reserved for the
purpose;
(B) Accounted for by a recorded count; and (C) Placed in separate pools for pro rata distribution among the dealers, poker dealers, cage cashiers, and slot attendants on a basis that coincides with the normal pay period, with the distribution based upon the number of hours each dealer, poker dealer, cage cashier, or slot attendant has worked. Tips from this pool shall be deposited into an account established by the Class B licensee.
Distributions to dealers, poker dealers, cage cashiers, and slot attendants from this pool shall be made following the Class B licensee’s payroll accounting practices and shall be subject to all applicable state and federal withholding taxes.
(D) The previous provisions of this subsection notwithstanding, a Class B licensee may, subject to internal controls approved by the commission, allow dealers of poker as defined in 11 CSR 45-1.090 to receive tips on an individual basis. The receiving of tips individually may be allowed only when the dealer does not make decisions that can affect the outcome of the gambling game, is not eligible to receive winnings from the gambling game as an agent of the Class B licensee, and who uses an approved shuffling machine during the course of the poker game. If tips are received by poker dealers on an individual
basis, all tips shall be immediately placed into a locked individual transparent tip box that shall be assigned to and maintained by the dealer while working. The locked individual tip box shall be turned in to the Class B licensee at the end of the shift for counting, withholding of taxes, and subsequent payment during the normal payroll process. For the purposes of this subsection, winnings from a gambling game shall not include commissions, commonly referred to as the “rake,” withheld from amounts wagered in a game. Poker dealers may be permitted to receive tips on an individual basis only if the Class B licensee has internal controls governing such practice that have been approved by the commission.
(6) Upon receipt of a tip from a patron, a dealer, poker dealer, cage cashier, or slot attendant shall extend his/her arm in an overt motion and deposit the tip into the transparent locked box or color up tube reserved for such purposes.
(7) Occupational license applicants or occupational licensees other than surveillance and security personnel may accept gifts from suppliers of goods and services to the Class B licensee provided the Class B licensee allows such practice and has provided procedures for accepting gifts in its internal controls which have been approved by the commission. No gifts may be accepted from liquor distributors (11 CSR 45-12.090). Gifts having a reasonable market value of twenty-five dollars ($25) or more shall be reported to the commission on a form and in a manner prescribed by the (11/30/19) JOHN R. ASHCROFT commission.
(8) Applicable state and federal taxes shall be withheld on tips and gifts received by occupational license applicants or occupational licensees. 313.817, RSMo 2016.* Emergency rule filed Sept. 1, 1993, effective Sept. 20, 1993, Jan. 5, 1994, effective Jan. 18, 1994, expired Jan. 30, 1994.

The information used to determine that an applicant is a “qualified person” pursuant to
section 313.817.8, RSMo, must be contained in the person’s credit file. A cage or credit employee who is responsible for receiving, processing, or verifying the information in credit applications shall not have authority to approve any credit limits or credit limit increases.
(4) Prior to a Class B licensee’s approval of a person’s credit limit, an employee of the credit department or other employee as designated in the Class B licensee’s internal control system shall— (A) Verify the person’s identity by— 1. Obtaining the person’s valid, nonexpired government-issued photo identification (such as a driver’s license, state ID card, or passport); and 2.

(E) Verify that the person’s name is not on the List of Disassociated Persons or the Missouri Gaming Commission (MGC) Excluded Persons List;
(F) Verify the application is signed by the person; and (G) Sign the verifications. The date and time of the signature of the verifier shall be recorded either electronically or manually contemporaneously with the verification.
(5) A person’s credit worthiness shall be based on the amount of funds in the person’s demand deposit account or accounts including any checking account and savings account.
(6) If the person’s credit worthiness is ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or more, the Class B licensee may accept a credit instrument of more than ten thousand dollars ($10,000) only if the qualified person’s creditworthiness is equal to or in excess of the amount of the credit instrument. If the person’s credit worthiness is less than ten thousand dollars ($10,000), the Class B licensee may only accept credit instruments that are equal to or less than half the amount of the person’s creditworthiness.

PURPOSE: This rule establishes cash reserve requirements.
(1) The licensee shall maintain in cash or cash equivalents an amount sufficient to protect patrons against defaults in gaming debts owed by the licensee. Cash equivalents are investments with an original maturity of three (3) months or less which would be permissible investments under Missouri law for state monies held by the state treasurer. The commission shall distribute to licensees and make available to all interested persons a formula approved by the commission by which licensees determine the minimum bankroll requirements of this rule. If, at any time, the licensee’s available cash or cash equivalents should be less than the amount required by this rule, the licensee must immediately notify the commission of this deficiency. Failure to maintain the minimum bankroll required by this rule, or a higher bankroll as required by the commission pursuant to this rule, or failure to notify the commission of any deficiencies, is an unsuitable method of operation.
(2) The Class B licensee shall maintain the following minimum bankroll requirements to ensure payment of patrons’ win:
(A) First month of operation one hundred percent (100%) of licensee’s projected payout to patrons (electronic gaming device and table game drop minus licensee win) for a weekly period, defined as seven (7) gaming days, based on the average daily payout multiplied by seven (7); and (B) Second and subsequent months of operation one hundred percent (100%) of licensee’s actual payout to patrons (electronic gaming device and table game drop minus licensee win) for a weekly period, based on the average daily payout multiplied by seven (7) from the previous month’s operation.

The three (3) year period of limitation for the credit or refund begins with the date the licensee pays taxes to the commission on account of the adjusted gross receipts in question or with the date the licensee pays fees to the commission on account of the tickets of admission in question.
(2) Every claim for refund or credit must include the following:
(A) Claim For Refund Or Credit Form provided by the commission, which must be in writing, signed by an authorized agent of the licensee, and state the specific grounds upon which the claim is founded; and (B) Amended returns for all periods involved in the overpayment of the tax or fee, penalty or interest that has been paid by the licensee.
(3) Any refund or credit, or any portion of refund or credit, which is erroneously allowed by the commission or which is erroneously taken by the licensee, may be recovered in any action brought by the commission against the licensee. In the event that a tax or fee has been illegally imposed against a licensee, the commission shall authorize the cancellation of the tax or fee upon its record.
(4) A claim for credit or refund shall be approved only after the commission has determined the claim to be valid and recorded its approval on the Claim For Refund Or Credit Form filed by the licensee. The commission may authorize the director, or the director’s designated representative, to make the initial determination as to the validity of any claim for credit or refund filed with the commission and to approve or deny the claim; provided, however, that this section shall not limit any other authorization of the director. The authorization granted herein shall not include the authority to review findings of a hearing officer under the provisions of 11 CSR 45-13.
(5) In cases where a claim for credit or refund is denied by the commission, the licensee may submit a request for a hearing, in accordance with 11 CSR 45-13, to review the commission’s decision to deny the claim.
(6) In cases where a claim for credit is approved, the commission will issue a credit memorandum for the amount of the overpayment. The credit may be applied by the licensee in satisfaction of subsequent tax or fee liability. A copy of the approved credit memorandum must be attached to the return to which it is being applied.
(A) A refund is made rather than a credit when the approved credit cannot be taken as a credit on the next return filed with the commission. The refund shall be made with interest as determined by section 32.065, RSMo.
(B) Any approved credit of the gaming tax or admission fee shall be made without interest.
(C) Taxes or fees which are claimed to have been unconstitutionally imposed or collected are subject to the same requirements as other claims for refund or credit.
(7) All claims for credit or refund filed with the commission and any documents filed in support of such claims or introduced in a hearing to contest the denial of a claim shall be deemed by the commission to be open records.
(8) The Claim For Refund Or Credit Form shall be made available on the commission’s website at www.mgc.dps.mo.gov and may be requested by writing to Missouri Gaming Commission, PO Box 1847, Jefferson City, MO 65102. 313.805, and 313.822, RSMo 2016.* Sept. 20, 1993, expired Jan. 17, 1994.

PURPOSE: This rule establishes a procedure for immediately suspending the privileges under a license where the public health, safety, or welfare is endangered and preservation of the public interest requires such suspension of privileges.

(2) The executive director shall have notice of the emergency order personally served upon the licensee or, if the licensee is not available personally, it may be served by electronic mail, certified mail, or express mail.
(3) Upon receipt of notice of an emergency suspension of license privileges as set forth in section (1) of this rule, the licensee may request an immediate informal hearing before the executive director. A request for informal hearing must be in writing and delivered to the executive director at the commission’s office in Jefferson City via electronic mail, personal delivery, certified mail, or express mail. The executive director or his or her designee shall hold the informal hearing within forty-eight (48) hours of receipt of the request for hearing. The procedure for the hearing shall be as follows:
(A) The executive director or his or her designee shall call the hearing to order and present a statement of facts summarizing the violations committed by the licensee and the reason(s) why the licensee’s conduct constitutes an immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare such that it demands an emergency order;
(B) The licensee may respond by submitting evidence and witnesses, if any, supporting its position that the conduct does not constitute a violation of law or that it is not of such severity that it demands emergency action. The executive director or his or her designee may require that witnesses testify under oath.
All relevant evidence is admissible. The executive director or his or her designee may question witnesses. At the conclusion of the licensee’s presentation of evidence, the licensee may make a concluding argument as to why the emergency order should not stand; and (C) Upon receiving all evidence presented by the licensee and hearing the licensee’s final argument, the executive director or his or her designee shall render a decision as to whether or not the order will stand. If the executive director reaffirms the order, it shall be scheduled for a hearing before the full commission as provided in section (4) of this rule.
(4) Emergency orders issued pursuant to section (1) of this
rule, except those that have been rescinded by the executive director after an informal hearing provided for in section (3), shall be presented to the commission at its next meeting where a hearing will be conducted to determine the validity of the issuance of the order. The hearing shall be commenced within seven (7) days of the service of notice of the emergency order upon the licensee unless sufficient cause can be shown as to why a hearing cannot be commenced within that time.
Under no circumstance shall such hearing be commenced more than fourteen (14) days after service of notice of the emergency order unless a delay is requested by the licensee.
The commission shall preside over the hearing, which shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth in
11 CSR 45-13.060. The commission may designate a hearing officer to direct the hearing and rule on evidentiary matters. {#sec-11-csr-45-13.060. omnilex-key=us-mo-regs-official--title-11--11 CSR 45-13.060.}
However, the hearing officer’s rulings shall be advisory only and may be overruled by the commission. Upon conclusion of oral arguments and evidentiary presentations, the commission shall determine whether sufficient cause exists to uphold the proposed emergency order.
(5) If the commission finds there are sufficient facts to support a finding that the alleged conduct occurred, that it poses an immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare, and that the effective regulation of gaming demands the action, it shall adopt a resolution ratifying the emergency order.
The commission may amend the language in the emergency order based upon the evidence presented at the hearing. The commission’s resolution shall establish the length of term for the order by establishing an expiration date. The expiration date may be a specific date, dependent on the completion of specified remedial actions or dependent on the outcome of a proposed disciplinary action issued by the commission pursuant to 11 CSR 45-13. If the expiration date is dependent upon specific remedial actions, the commission shall provide a detailed description of the remedies in the resolution and shall establish procedures whereby the licensee can demonstrate that it has complied with the required remedies. Any resolution adopted to ratify the emergency order is a final decision of the commission for purposes of appeal.
(6) If the commission finds that there is insufficient cause to support the order, it shall adopt a resolution rescinding the emergency order and the licensee’s privileges shall be reinstated.
(7) Resolutions ratifying or rescinding emergency orders adopted pursuant to the provisions of this rule shall not prohibit the commission from instituting a proposed disciplinary action using the procedures set forth in 11 CSR 45-13.
(8) Copies of the final commission order shall be served on the licensee by electronic mail, certified mail, express mail, or by personal delivery. 313.004, 313.052, 313.560, and 313.910, RSMo 2016, and sections 313.800, 313.805, 313.935, 313.950, and 313.955, RSMo Supp. 2025.* Emergency rule filed July 30, 1999, effective Aug. 9, 1999, expired Feb. 24, 2000.

The tax payment shall be remitted by the due date regardless of whether or not the fifteenth day falls on a banking day.
(5) The wagering tax imposed on the Retail or Mobile licensee shall be based on adjusted gross revenue from sports wagering.
Adjusted gross revenue for a given month equals the total value of all cash and cash equivalents received by the licensee for sports wagers minus the total of— (A) All cash and cash equivalents paid out as winnings to sports wagering patrons;
(B) The actual cost paid by a licensee for anything of value provided to and redeemed by patrons, including merchandise or services distributed to sports wagering patrons to incentivize (C) Voided wagers;

(F) Any sums paid as a result of any federal tax, including (G) Uncollectible sports wagering receivables, not to exceed two percent (2%) of the total of all sums, less the amount paid out as winnings to sports wagering patrons.
(6) If the amount of adjusted gross revenue in a calendar month is a negative number, the licensee shall remit no sports wagering tax for that calendar month. Any negative adjusted gross revenue shall be carried over and calculated as a deduction in the subsequent calendar months until the negative balance has been brought to zero.
(7) The sports wagering tax remittal shall include all information necessary for adjustments and reconciliation of tax liability and shall be subject to audit by the commission.
Adjustments to previously reported tax information shall be made by the licensee, except that no adjustment of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) or more shall be made to previously reported adjusted gross revenue without the prior written approval of the commission. *Original authority: 313.004, RSMo 1993, amended 1994, 2014, and 313.800-313.850,

All debit transactions shall be documented with a receipt or other supporting documentation to ensure proper use of bingo proceeds.

(5) Game operators may transfer funds from another account into the bingo checking account to cover bingo game-related expenses. Bingo operators may not deposit receipts from any other fund-raising activities of the organization into the bingo checking account. Any monies deposited into the bingo checking account are deemed to be bingo proceeds and can only be used to pay bingo gaming expenses or for religious, charitable, or philanthropic purposes.
(6) Bingo funds may be used for up to four (4) members of the organization to attend one (1) bingo-related convention per calendar year. The following documentation shall be retained in the licensee’s bingo records, and made available to commission staff upon request, for any convention expenses paid from bingo proceeds: 1) an official brochure containing the agenda and cost of the convention; 2) the names of the members attending and the title they hold in the organization; and 3) all receipts for associated costs such as mileage, hotel, and other reasonable expenses. Organizations may use bingo proceeds to pay reasonable fees to hold membership in a bingo-related association or organization. Documentation shall be retained reflecting the cost of said membership.

(9) Any licensee who denies the commission access to any account into which bingo proceeds are deposited or transferred may have its license immediately suspended until such access is granted.

(A) Each pull-tab deal shall have the same unique serial number stamped on the flare and on each pull-tab card included in the deal;
(B) Each pull-tab deal shall contain a packing slip placed inside or attached to the box(es) or container(s); and (C) The packing slip shall contain the name of the manufacturer, serial number, person(s) who packed it, and the date the deal was packaged.
(2) Winning pull-tabs shall be randomly distributed and mixed among all other pull-tabs within a deal and/or series so as to eliminate any pattern between series, or portions of series, from which the location or approximate location of any of the winning tabs may be determined. The pull-tab deal or series must be assembled so that no placement or design of winners or losers exists that allows for the possibility of picking the winning pull-tabs.
(3) Manufacturers shall mix pull-tabs prior to placing them in their final packaging container(s). The mix shall ensure that pull-tabs are separated from the original collated row position and dispersed amongst all rows in the final packaging container.
(4) Pull-tab containers shall be sealed by the manufacturer with a sticker or seal of the manufacturer and shrink wrapped. This seal and shrink wrap can only be removed by an authorized member of the bingo organization whose name shall appear on the organization’s worker list on file with the Missouri Gaming Commission. At no time shall this seal or shrink wrap be removed by a supplier. Suppliers are prohibited from opening, repackaging, or bundling the pull-tabs.

Manufacturers shall be responsible for reimbursing suppliers or operators for unused games selected by the commission for quality control testing purposes.
(7) Pull-tabs shall be manufactured so that it is impossible to determine by any method or device the covered or concealed numbers, symbol, set of symbols, or game protection on the pull-tab until it has been dispensed to and opened by the player.
(8) All pull-tabs shall be manufactured to ensure that, when offered for sale to the public, the pull-tab is free of security defects so that the winning or losing pull-tabs cannot be determined by any method or device prior to being opened by the player.
(9) Pull-tabs shall be designed in a manner which prevents the pull-tabs from being resealed to eliminate the possibility of them being reused or resold after the initial opening.
(10) There shall be no consideration awarded for purchasing the last pull-tab in a pull-tab deal. The prohibition against such practice, commonly referred to as a “last sale feature” shall include, but not be limited to, pull-tab games that utilize coin boards and merchandise boards. 313.065, RSMo 2000.* Original rule filed Sept. 2, 1997, effective March 30, 1998.

11 CSR 50-2.160 Brake Components the inspection of brake components. The inspection of brakes is a (1) Hydraulic System. {#sec-11-csr-50-2.160 omnilex-key=us-mo-regs-official--title-11--11 CSR 50-2.160}
(A) Pedal Reserve. With the vehicle stopped, apply moderate foot force on the brake pedal for at least one (1) minute and observe if the pedal moves slowly toward toe board.
- Reject vehicle if:
A. Brake pedal moves slowly toward the toe board, indicating fluid leakage, while pedal pressure is maintained for one (1) minute;
B. Less than one-fifth (1/5) of the total available pedal travel remains;
C. Less than two-fifths (2/5) of total available pedal travel remains on a school bus; or D. The brake warning device or light comes on when the brake pedal is depressed. Do not inspect the anti-lock braking system warning device or light.
(B) Power Reserve. Determine if system is operating by first stopping engine, then depress brake pedal several times to destroy all vacuum in system. Depress pedal with a moderate foot force. While maintaining this force on the pedal, start engine; and observe if pedal falls slightly when engine starts.
Hydroboost system must have accumulator pressure for two (2) complete brake applications and should have return pressure against foot. If vehicle is equipped with electrohydraulic booster brake system, stop engine, turn ignition to the “on” position, depress brake pedal, and observe if electric pump, buzzer, and pump indicator lights operate. Inspect school buses manufactured after March 1, 1987, for audible or visible brake warning signals, or both.

(A) An inspection for front and rear wheel play, which includes steering linkage, pitman arm, idler arm, stabilizer bar(s), connections, link(s), wheel bearings, tie rod ends, and adjusting sleeves, can only be made by putting the ball joints under load. To load ball joints, the vehicle must be hoisted— 1. Under the frame if the spring or torsion bar is on the lower control arm (Figure 1, included herein);
-
Under lower control arm, close to ball joint, if spring or torsion bar is on upper control arm (Figure 2, included herein);
-
From the underside of axle (Figure 3, included herein) if the vehicle is equipped with king pins or Twin I-Beams with ball joints (Figure 10, included herein).
(B) Inspect front and rear wheel bearings by grasping the tire by both top and bottom, and rocking it in and out. To verify that any looseness detected is in the wheel bearings, notice the movement between the brake drum or disc and the backing plate or splash shield.
(C) Inspect front wheels, king pin (spindle bolts), and idler arm for play. On vehicles with power steering, the engine must be running. Eliminate all wheel bearing movement by first applying the service brake. Grasp front and rear of tire and attempt to turn assembly right and left. Then grasp top and bottom of tire and attempt to rock it in and out. Observe movement at extreme front and rear—top and bottom—of tire (Figures 4 and 5, included herein).
(D) Inspect all steering linkage, pitman arm, stabilizer bar(s), connections, link(s), tie rods, and adjusting sleeves for locked joints and looseness by working them up and down and back and forth by hand.
(E) Inspect condition of all upper and lower control arms, pivot shafts, pivot shaft mountings, radius arms, and all bushings.
- Reject vehicle if— A. Wheel bearing looseness in an adjustable wheel bearing allows relative movement between drum and backing plate (disc and splash shield) of more than one-eighth inch (1/8") measured at the outer circumference of the tire for vehicles ten thousand pounds (10,000 lbs.) Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or less, or one-quarter inch (1/4") for vehicles more than ten thousand pounds (10,000 lbs.) GVWR;
B. A wheel bearing is broken, or falls apart when a wheel is removed to inspect a brake;
C. Front wheel movement is in excess of one-fourth inch (1/4") for wheels sixteen inches (16") or less, three-eighths inch (3/8") for wheels over sixteen inches (16") to and including eighteen inches (18"), and one-half inch (1/2") for wheels over eighteen inches (18") (see Figures 3, 4, and 5, included herein).
(An idler arm or king pin must meet this criteria before being rejected.);
D. Excessive vertical (up and down) or lateral (side) movement is evident in any of the steering linkage sockets, tapered studs are loose in their mounting holes, any movable joints are locked, any adjusting sleeves are loose, or any joints are not secured with cotter pins or other devices;
E. A sealed wheel bearing hub assembly exceeds the manufacturer-recommended wear specifications;
F. A control arm or radius arm is badly bent or broken, or if a pivot shaft or a pivot shaft mounting or any control arm, radius arm, pivot shaft bushing is badly worn or missing; or G. Stabilizer bar(s), links, or connections are badly worn, missing, loose, or broken.
(3) Springs and Shock Absorbers.
(A) A visual examination must be made of all springs, torsion bars, shock absorbers, bushings, shackles, and “U” bolts with the vehicle on a hoist or jack.
(B) Reject vehicle if— 1. Springs or torsion bars are loose, broken, or spring pieces or torsion bars are missing;
- Spring shackles or “U” bolts are worn, missing, loose; or 3. A shock absorber is missing, disconnected, not securely attached, broken, or if rubber bushings or mounting bolts are worn-out or missing.
(4) Ball Joints.
(A) An inspection for ball joint wear can only be made when the joints are unloaded, except those ball joints having a wear indicator. An inspection of a ball joint which has a wear indicator must be made while the ball joint is under load with the weight of the vehicle on its wheels. To unload ball joints, the vehicle must be hoisted:
- Under lower control arm if spring or torsion bar is on lower control arm (Figure 6, included herein). The lower ball joint is the load-carrying ball joint and the upper ball joint is the nonload-carrying ball joint; and 2. Under frame if spring or torsion bar is on upper control arm (Figure 7, included herein). The upper ball joint is the load-carrying ball joint and the lower ball joint is the nonloadcarrying ball joint.
(B) In checking the condition of an unloaded ball joint, a ball joint gauge need not be used if the inspector is absolutely certain that the ball joint movement does not exceed the manufacturing tolerances. A vehicle will not be rejected unless the vertical (up and down) or horizontal (side-to-side) movement in the load-carrying ball joint has been accurately measured by a ball joint gauge and the measurement exceeds the manufacturing tolerances. A vehicle requiring a special tool or method to measure ball joint movement will not be rejected unless the ball joint is obviously dangerous. Acceptable ball joint tolerances are determined by the manufacturer. If the ball joint movement exceeds manufacturing tolerances, the measured movement shall be listed with the defective part on the MVI-2 form (see 11 CSR 50-2.120).
(C) Inspect ball joints with wear indicator, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, included herein. Wipe the grease fitting and boss free from dirt and grease. Observe if boss is flush or inside the cover surface.
(D) Follow manufacturing recommendations to inspect ball joints without wear indicator.
(E) Inspect ball joints on Twin I-Beam axles using the following procedure. Eliminate all wheel bearing play by applying the service brake.

PURPOSE: This rule formulates procedures for the inspection of motor vehicle bumpers as required by section 307.172(2), RSMo.
(1) Definitions.
(A) Bumper—A device of at least four and one-half inches (4 1/2") in vertical height constructed of metal, wood or other durable material capable of absorbing shock and mounted on the front or rear of a motor vehicle. Each bumper must be made of a strength equal to a stock bumper.
(B) Drop bumper—A bumper as described in subsection (1)(A) which may be mounted not more than three inches (3") below the original manufacturer’s mounting with heavy metal by bolting or welding to the motor vehicle frame.
(C) Nonstock bumper—A device as defined in subsection (1)
(A) and designed by other than a motor vehicle manufacturer.
(D) Stock bumper—A device as defined in subsection (1)(A) designed by a motor vehicle manufacturer or an equivalent replacement.
(2) The bumper shall be horizontally mounted on the vehicle centerline by bolting or welding to the vehicle frame as originally installed by the motor vehicle manufacturer. The bumper must extend in width to the originally manufactured tread width for the motor vehicle.
(3) Measurement. Measurements shall be taken with the motor vehicle in an unloaded condition on a level surface with the tires inflated to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Measurements shall be taken from the surface on which the vehicle stands to the highest point of the bottom of the bumper (excluding any bumper attachments). If the vehicle is equipped with a nonstock-type bumper the measurement shall be taken from a point not more than five inches (5") below the centerline of the bumper mounting bracket. The bottom of the nonstock-type bumper, however, shall not be higher than the measurements contained in section (4).
(4) Inspection Procedure. Inspect motor vehicle bumpers for proper bumper height, mounting, construction and presence of bumpers. (Pickup trucks and other commercial vehicles not equipped by the manufacturer with a rear bumper as standard equipment are not required to be equipped with a rear bumper.) Vehicle design will determine how a vehicle is classified. Passenger cars and station wagons which are designed and manufactured solely as passenger vehicles will be classified as motor vehicles, except commercial motor vehicles, and must comply with the twenty-two inch (22") maximum bumper height. Motor vehicles designed as multi-purpose or utility vehicles, including Broncos, Blazers, Suburbans, Jeeps, vans, mini-vans, pickups and mini-pickups, will be considered as commercial motor vehicles. The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of these vehicles will determine the maximum bumper height as specified in the statute. The following chart depicts various bumper configurations and correct locations to measure:
The following bumper heights apply to motor vehicles with a GVWR up through eleven thousand five hundred pounds (11,500 lbs.):
Maximum Maximum Front Rear Bumper Bumper Height Height Motor vehicles except commercial motor vehicles 22 inches 22 inches Commercial motor vehicles (GVWR) 4500 lbs. and under 24 inches 26 inches 4501 lbs.–7500 lbs 27 inches 29 inches 7501 lbs.–9000 lbs 28 inches 30 inches 9001 lbs.–11500 lbs. 29 inches 31 inches A motor vehicle will not be rejected for improper bumper height if the motor vehicle was originally equipped by the manufacturer with a bumper that exceeds the stated heights or if the motor vehicle was originally equipped by the manufacturer with a bumper that fails to comply with subsection (1)(A).
(A) Reject vehicle if:
-
The bumper height exceeds the limit stated for the weight category of the motor vehicle;
-
Bumper is not constructed of metal, wood or other durable material and of equal strength to a stock bumper;
-
Bumper is improperly mounted; or 4. Motor vehicle is not equipped with required bumper(s).

(A) Applications to buoy the full width of a cove may be approved only after a public hearing;
(B) The width of the waterway is determined by the distance between docks on the opposing shorelines, unless no docks are present. This method of measurement represents the actual navigational width of the proposed area;
(C) If the width of the waterway is such that the distance between docks on opposite sides of the waterway exceeds four hundred feet (400'), the waterway may be buoyed if the volume of boating traffic is significantly disproportionate to similar areas on the same body of water, or boating accident data support the need for “no wake-idle speed” buoys. If the distance between opposing docks is disputed, the applicant, at his/her expense, may have an official survey conducted by a Missouri registered surveyor to determine the exact distance;
(D) Applications to buoy the full width of any portion of a waterway, should include a plot map of the area with all affected owner names on their plot;
(E) The applicant is responsible for submitting proof of property ownership and signed petitions which document that seventy-five percent (75%) or more of property owners in the affected area are in favor of the proposal. A sample petition may be requested from the Water Patrol Division;
(F) Property ownership by those in the affected area is determined by submission of a copy of the property owner’s dock permit, or if no dock is present, a copy of the property owner’s real estate property tax receipt;
(G) For individually owned real property bordering the affected waterway, there is to be a one (1) property, one (1) vote rule applied; however, owners with multiple properties within the affected area may cast only one (1) vote. Marinas are considered the same as individually owned real property.
Property easements bordering the waterway are considered one (1) eligible vote if there is a permitted dock associated with the easement. As with all eligible voters, proof of ownership is necessary;
(H) For real property containing multifamily housing, such as condominiums, a one (1) boat dock, one (1) vote rule applies, with a maximum of five (5) eligible votes. Multifamily housing property ownership is determined by providing a copy of each dock permit. The vote(s) are to be cast by the association or entity possessing authority to do so;
(I) For all other community docks, a one (1) boat dock, one (1) vote rule applies, with a maximum of five (5) eligible votes per community. Community dock(s) ownership is determined by providing a copy of each dock permit. The vote(s) are to be cast by the association or entity possessing authority to do so;
(J) Final determination on voting eligibility will be made by the Water Patrol Division when circumstances exist which are not clearly defined by buoy guidelines;
(K) Placement of buoys in a diagonal pattern across a no wake cove or no wake zone, rather than a straight line, may be permitted if the shoreline and situation necessitate such a pattern;
(L) If there are permitted buoys within the affected area, the permit number of the existing buoys should be submitted with the application. If the application is approved, all existing buoy permits within the affected area may be revoked, unless the Water Patrol Division determines it is in the interest of public safety to retain some or all existing permitted buoys;
(M) Owners of property within a permitted no wake cove, no wake zone, or otherwise restricted area may, by signed petitions, request a revocation of the permit. Revocation may only be considered, however, if twentysix percent (26%) or more of property owners favor the revocation. Eligible votes and proof of property ownership are determined in the same manner as the process used for new applications;
(N) Generally, the buoy line for a no wake cove or no wake zone consists of a minimum of three (3) buoys. Depending on the width of the waterway and volume of boating traffic, a floating sign(s) conforming to prescribed markings may be permitted in conjunction with buoys. The buoy line is to be installed in accordance with the approved permit. The buoy line generally will not be approved to be placed more than one hundred feet (100') out from the location of measurement used to determine the width of the waterway. Agreement is to be reached in writing with the owner of any dock located at the proposed buoy line and the owner of any dock located within one hundred feet (100') outside of the proposed buoy line regarding the placement of the proposed buoys; and (O) Applications may be submitted by property owners located on a waterway narrowing to less than eight hundred feet (800') in width to restrict vessels forty feet (40') in length or greater to no wake. To ensure uniformity, the eight hundred feet (800') width eligibility applies to coves or main channel areas. Waterways eight hundred feet (800') or greater in width will not be considered for this restriction unless the volume of boating traffic is significantly disproportionate to similar areas on the same body of water, or JOHNR. ASHCROFT(7/31/19) boating traffic accident data support the need for the restriction. This restriction may be indicated by buoy markers, signage on docks, or signage on the shoreline, as specified in the permit by the Water Patrol Division.
Applications where signage is a requirement on docks or shoreline property, are to include proof of ownership and written consent from each owner where signs will be posted.
Applications under this clause will be heard by the Water Patrol Division at a public hearing. Petitions from property owners in the affected area are unnecessary for this limited no wake restriction. Approval is based on the enhancement of public safety in the proposed area and testimony provided at the hearing. If approved, the permit holder is responsible for maintaining the buoys and/or signage as indicated in the permit.
(4) Displaying of buoy permit number includes:
(A) A buoy’s permit number is to be displayed legibly on the side of the buoy and within three inches (3") of the top of the buoy;
(B) A sign’s permit number is to be displayed legibly on the upper left corner of the sign, as facing the sign, and within three inches (3") of the top of the sign; and (C) Permit numbers will be a minimum of one inch (1") block style, black numbers, and hyphenated as indicated on the permit.
(5) Display of lighting on buoys and signs includes:
(A) Flashing lights for permitted buoys may be approved only if deemed necessary for safe navigation. Flashing lights for buoys will be solar, white flashing lights, fifteen flashes per minute (15FPM); and (B) Flashing lights for permitted signs will be solar, amber flashing lights, fifteen flashes per minute (15FPM). Each sign is to display a minimum of two (2) lights.
(6) Modification(s) to an existing buoy permit must be approved by the Water Patrol Division. A request to modify an existing permit may require a new application and public hearing if the modification would have a significant effect on boating traffic in the immediate area as determined by the Water Patrol Division. Permit holders are to notify the Water Patrol Division if they have a change of mailing address or transfer of property ownership.
(7) Buoy permits for individual docks are non-transferable. New property owners may re-apply for a buoy based on current buoy guidelines.
(8) Buoy applications for the same general area may be considered not more than two (2) times within any twelve (12) consecutive month period.
(9) Applicants who have been rejected twice within a twelve (12) month period for the same general area may submit a letter of appeal to the superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
(10) Temporary buoy permits for regattas, construction sites, etc., are to each be considered on their own merits.
(11) It is the responsibility of the permit holder to purchase, install, and maintain all approved buoys and signs. All approved buoys and signs are to be installed and in place from April 1 through October 1 each year. Permitted buoys and signs may remain installed the remainder of the year, if they are maintained according to the permit. Buoys and signs approved for new applications during the May hearings are to be installed within thirty (30) days of the approval date. All buoys and signs are to be reflective and compatible with the Uniform State Waterway Marking System as established by the United States Coast Guard. The director of the Water Patrol Division may revoke the permit of any permit holder upon failure to abide by these rules.
(12) An existing permit may be revoked, if in the opinion of the Water Patrol Division, the permit or placement of the buoy(s) is no longer necessary or warranted due to modifications in development of the affected area, or boat traffic no longer warrants such a permit.
(13) The Water Patrol Division retains, pursuant to section 306.124, RSMo, sole discretion to provide for the uniform marking of the waterways of this state through the placement of aids to navigation and regulatory markers.
The Water Patrol Division may approve or revoke regulatory markers and navigational aids on any area of the waterways of this state when public safety is enhanced by the regulation or deregulation of boating traffic. The Water Patrol Division may consider boating density, traffic patterns, accident data, and other pertinent criteria prior to approval of an application or revocation of a permit.
(14) Nothing in this rule may be construed to create in any other party any right or entitlement to the privilege of placing such aids or markers on behalf of the Water Patrol Division.

PURPOSE: This rule describes the organization, methods of operation and procedures of the Division of Liquor Control.
(1) The Department of Liquor Control was established under the Liquor Control Act passed by the Fifty-Seventh General Assembly in extra session, was signed by the governor on January 13, 1934 and became effective on that date. The Omnibus State Reorganization Act of 1974 created the Department of Public Safety and made the Department of Liquor Control a division of that department. The Liquor Control Law is sections 311.010, RSMo. On August 28, 2001, the division gained responsibility for enforcement of youth access to tobacco laws and in 2003, was renamed the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control. The division enforces the tobacco laws under sections 407.925 through 407.934, RSMo.
(2) The supervisor of Alcohol and Tobacco Control is vested with the exclusive power to issue and to revoke or suspend licenses for the sale of intoxicating liquor and with the power to make rules governing the conduct and method of operation of all licensees set out in section 311.660(10), RSMo.
(A) The supervisor, with the approval of the director of the Department of Public Safety, is authorized to appoint and employ all agents, assistants, deputies, and inspectors as are necessary for the proper enforcement and administration of the Liquor Control Law.
(B) These appointees are prohibited from participating in any type of partisan political activity and are likewise prohibited from electioneering for or against any proposition to be voted on at any election. Appointees are required to meet minimum physical and mental requirements and receive training in the laws and their enforcement.
(3) All licenses issued by the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control expire on the thirtieth day of June, next following the date that the license was issued. Correct license fees shall be paid before any license is issued.
Cities and counties are permitted by law to license and regulate the sale of liquor.
(4) The supervisor of Alcohol and Tobacco Control, agents of the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control, prosecuting attorneys, sheriffs, their deputies, and police officers are charged with the duty of enforcing the Liquor Control Law. The division works closely with other law enforcement agencies and personnel in an effort to ensure compliance with the liquor control laws and youth access to tobacco laws.
(A) It is the purpose of the division to assist licensees and to eliminate the persistent violator. The supervisor of Alcohol and Tobacco Control has the authority to impose civil penalties and suspend or revoke licenses.
Amended: Filed Feb. 27, 1998, effective Aug. 30, 1998. Amended: Filed Oct. 10, 2018, effective May 30, 2019. *Original authority: 311.660, RSMo 1939, amended 1989.
Brown-Forman Distillers Corp. v. Stewart 520 SW2d 1 (Mo. banc 1975). Supervisor of liquor control is statutorily vested with the power and authority to promulgate valid regulations to fill in the interstices of the Liquor Control Law. Rules which are inpari materia must be construed together. The broad, yet valid, authority conferred upon the supervisor by subsections (6) and (10) of section 311.660, RSMo 1969 is limited only in the respect that regulations be necessary, reasonable and not inconsistent with the Liquor Control Law.
Miligram Food Stores, Inc. v. Ketchum, 384 SW2d 510 (Mo. App. 1965); cert. denied 382 U.S. 801. Section 311.660, RSMo 1969 does not vest the supervisor of liquor control with arbitrary discretion to make rules and regulations because he is limited to making rules that are reasonable and consistent with the (liquor control) law.

Op. Atty. Gen. No. 132, Russell (7-18-79). Ethanol used solely as a fuel for motor vehicle purposes is not a section 311.020, RSMo “intoxicating liquor.” Also, manufacturers of ethanol for fuel purposes need not be licensed under Chapter 311, RSMo if the ethanol is denatured by some means.
Op. Atty. Gen. No. 37, Mueller (1-17-79). Wines used as part of religious services are not “for beverage purposes” since they are not being consumed for the mere pleasure of drinking or for physical or mental exaltation. Therefore, these “sacramental wines” are not intoxicating liquors as defined in Chapter 311, RSMo.

Amended: Filed Aug. 1, 2024, effective Brown-Forman Distillers Corp. v. Stewart, 520 SW2d 1 (Mo. banc 1975). Separate licenses are required for every phase of the liquor traffic and manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers are statutorily categorized as distinct separate phases thereof. The statutes indicate a legislative intent to preclude a licensee in one phase of the liquor traffic from controlling traffic in liquor in its entirety.
Pinzio v. Supervisor of Liquor Control, 334 SW2d 20 (1960).
A review of the statutes makes it clear that the legislature has vested sole discretion in the supervisor (of liquor control) to issue or refuse to issue each license, whether one of original issue or a renewal and that a hearing is not an essential prerequisite to the lawful exercise of that sole discretion. Failure to hold a hearing prior to the refusal to issue a denial of due process is in violation of the pertinent provisions of the state and federal constitutions.
State ex rel. Floyd v. Philpet et al., 266 SW2d 704 (Mo. banc 1954). The exclusive authority to determine whether statutory qualifications for an applicant for a state license to sell intoxicating liquor at retail had been met and the authority to issue such licenses is vested in the state supervisor of liquor control.

PURPOSE: This rule establishes general rules for conducting retail establishments.
(1) No person holding a license for the retail sale of intoxicating liquor who has had his/her license suspended by order of the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control may sell, give away, or permit the consumption of any intoxicating liquor on or about the licensed premise, nor may s/he order or accept delivery of any intoxicating liquor during the period of time the order of suspension is in effect. Any licensee desiring to keep his/her premises open for the sale of food or merchandise during the period of suspension shall display the order of suspension issued by the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control in a conspicuous place on the premises so that all persons visiting the premises may readily see the order of suspension and shall ensure that all places where intoxicating liquor is stored or dispensed on or about the licensed premises are closed in accordance with section 311.290, RSMo, for the duration of the suspension.
(2) No person holding a license for the retail sale of malt liquor by the drink may knowingly sell, give away, or serve upon the premises described in the license any glass, ice, water, soda water, phosphates, or any other kind of liquids to be used for the purpose of mixing intoxicating drinks and commonly referred to as set-ups; nor may any person holding a license for the retail sale of malt liquor by the drink allow any person on or about the licensed premise to possess or consume any intoxicating liquor other than malt liquor, or to pour into, mix with, or add intoxicating liquor other than malt liquor, to water, soda water, ginger ale, seltzer, or other liquid.

(B) Is not made to the licensed premises of a licensed retailer;
(C) Is made by an employee or agent of the licensee expressly authorized to deliver intoxicating liquor on the licensee’s behalf; and (D) Complies with all other provisions of Chapter 311, RSMo, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
(5) No person holding a license for the retail sale of intoxicating liquor may sell, give away, or possess any intoxicating liquor from or in any container when the intoxicating liquor is not that set out on the manufacturer’s label on the container or does not have alcoholic content shown on the manufacturer’s label.
(6) No person holding a license for the retail sale of intoxicating liquor may bottle any intoxicating liquor from any barrel or other container nor may s/he refill any bottle or add to the contents of the bottle from any barrel or other container except where explicitly authorized by statute.
(7) Any person holding a license for the retail sale of intoxicating liquor by the drink, when requested to serve a particular brand or type of intoxicating liquor, may not substitute another brand or type of intoxicating liquor.
(8) No person holding a license for the retail sale of intoxicating liquor may allow or cause any sign or advertisement pertaining to intoxicating liquor to be carried or transported upon any sidewalk or street of any municipality or upon any highway of the state.

This provision shall not apply to a licensee, their employee, or agent who— (A) Is conducting a tasting for one (1) or more customers and tastes the product, but does not consume or imbibe, to educate the consumer on the product; or (B) Is sampling a new product presented by a salesperson marketing the product, as authorized by section 311.070.4(7) and/or 311.197, RSMo; or (C) Is in the business, but is not on duty nor acting within the scope of employment, whether the establishment is open or closed to the public, so long as the licensee is allowed to be open pursuant to section 311.290, RSMo, or any other provision of Chapter 311 relating to opening and closing.
(12) Any person holding a license for the retail sale of intoxicating liquor must have at least one (1) on duty employee at the establishment who is responsible for the sale, dispersion, and consumption of intoxicating liquor on or about the licensed premises whenever the establishment is not a closed place in accordance with section 311.290, RSMo.

No licensee shall create any non-public or quasi-public areas on or about the licensed premises for marijuana usage anytime when intoxicating liquor is being sold, displayed for sale, or consumed. A licensee may seek permission for, and the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control may permit, a special event where consumption of marijuana occurs on or about the licensed premise (a “marijuana event”).

All patrons permitted to smoke or imbibe marijuana during the marijuana event must be quarantined from those patrons consuming intoxicating liquor and must be marked with a wristband. No patron of the marijuana event may consume intoxicating beverages on the licensed premise within one (1) hour of the commencement or conclusion of the marijuana event.
(15) In the event the premises of any licensee is declared to be off-limits by the military authorities, the licensee may not permit any member of the armed forces to be in or upon the premises covered by his/her license. Provided, this is only effective after the licensee is notified of the order by the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control. Members of the Military Police or Shore Patrol are exempt from this provision.
(16) Pre-Mixed Batch Drink Labels. Where a retail by drink establishment prepares batch/bulk mixed drinks prior to an order being placed, the container must be clearly labeled “THIS CONTAINS ALCOHOL.” The container must also bear the name of the mixed drink, as used by the establishment, and the type or types of alcohol contained therein. This section is separate from any label/packaging requirements set forth in section 311.202, RSMo, for retailer-packaged alcohol for off-premises consumption (i.e., to-go alcoholic beverages).
(17) Persons granted a license to sell intoxicating liquor for offpremises consumption that display such intoxicating liquor outside a clearly discernible location reserved for alcoholic beverages shall— (A) Not place intoxicating liquor in an area immediately adjacent to nonalcoholic beverages containing the same or similar brand name, logo, or packaging as an alcoholic beverage; and (B) Equip any such display with signage that indicates the product is an alcoholic beverage, is clearly visible to consumers, and is of sufficient size to notify the consumer that the product contains alcohol. Nothing in this subsection shall prohibit the placement of nonalcoholic wine or beer in or near a display of alcoholic beverages that contain the same or similar brand name, logo, or packaging as the nonalcoholic wine or beer.

Chilton v. Wright, 480 SW2d 1 (1972). Two agents testifying that they removed 44 bottles of liquor from licensee’s premises suspected to be refills in violation of rules and regulations because some appeared to be overfilled and some had worn strip stamps on their necks, along with testimony of expert chemist, was competent substantial evidence that the licensee possessed refilled bottles in violation of rules and regulations 13(c) (now covered by 11 CSR 70-2.130(6)). But evidence of “several different brands of liquor—the bulk of it was in half-pints and pints” and the geographical location of the retail outlet and its proximity to known “dry” states did not constitute substantial evidence that the licensees had reasonable cause to believe that their customers purchased liquor for purposes of resale in violation of rule 13(d)
(now 11 CSR 70-2.130(4)).

State ex rel., Glendinning Co. v. Letz, 591 SW2d 92 (Mo. App. 1979). The Supervisor of Liquor Control may prohibit gambling on licensed premises by rule despite the general preemption language contained in the criminal code at section 572.100, RSMo.
Op. Atty. Gen. No. 178, Wilson (10-18-79). A person convicted of supplying intoxicating liquor to a minor does not necessarily violate section 311.060, RSMo (regarding licensing) or 11 CSR 70- 2.140(13) (regarding employment).
State ex rel. Letz v. Riley, 559 SW2d 631 (Mo. App. 1977). Despite the issuance by the attorney general of a “no action” letter stating that certain games in theory were not violative of Chapter 563, RSMo, the doctrine of equitable estoppel was not available to support an injunction restraining the supervisor of the Division of Liquor Control from enforcing Liquor Control Regulations 15(k)
(prohibiting any licensee from allowing any sort of gambling upon licensed premises) and 25 II(c)(1)(g) (restricting advertisement of intoxicating liquor and nonintoxicating beer).
Op. Atty. Gen. No. 167, Moran (7-7-66). A licensee of the Department of Liquor Control is not violating the rules and regulations of the department by having on his/her licensed premises a pinball machine of the type designated by federal statute as a gambling device per se and requiring a $250 Coin- Operated Gaming Device Stamp but on which the machine only awards free games for replay. It is a violation of regulation 15(1)
(now covered by 11 CSR 70-2.140(12)) of the rules of the Department of Liquor Control if patrons using the pinball machines are actually paid off in money or merchandise by the liquor licensee or if patrons using the pinball machines actually wager money or property among themselves on the outcome of games played and the licensee allows such gambling.

PURPOSE: This rule establishes procedures for refund of unused licenses and receiving tax credits on intoxicating liquor.

The agents shall make an affidavit that they inspected the intoxicating liquors denoting in the affidavit the brand, number of the containers or cases, and the disposition to be made of the spirituous liquor, wine, or malt liquor.
(C) Under no circumstances shall tax credit requests be accepted by the supervisor if the sole reason for their presentation to him/her is because the claimant has purchased beyond his/her capacity to sell.
(D) The supervisor shall not accept tax credit requests filed more than ninety (90) days after the date listed on the underlying invoice(s) for the request.
(E) The supervisor reserves the right to refuse any or all tax credit requests presented.

(B) Supplemental pricing information is to be made available to retailers when a new product, new size, or new proof is added by a wholesaler during the month and not subject to change before the first of the month when regularly filed product pricing information is effective.

(D) Close out items should be identified as such on the product pricing information that is made available to retailers at prices which may be below the wholesaler’s costs for not less than six (6) consecutive months during which time the wholesaler may not purchase further inventory. The wholesaler should not use close out pricing as an inducement for retailers to purchase other intoxicating liquors.

(6) The price to retailers, except retailers operating railroad cars, should include federal custom duties, internal revenue taxes, state excise tax, bottling and handling charges, and the cost of delivery to the retailer. The price to retailers operating railroad cars may be scheduled at a price “ex state excise tax,” but shall include all other taxes and costs computed in prices to other retailers. No charge(s) may be made in addition to the price except that on past due accounts there may be imposed a finance (interest) charge in accord with that permitted by law. Provided, however, that if a wholesaler elects to impose a finance (interest) charge on past due account the charge shall be of uniform rate to all retailers and imposed on all retailers who have past due accounts.
(7) Delivery. Any brand of spirituous liquor or wine sold to a retailer is to be shipped to and received by the retailer at the price in effect for that calendar month in which the delivery occurs. Delayed shipment orders may be taken the last five (5) days of the month and delivered in the first five (5) days of the following month.

(9) Breakage, Samples, Expenses. As part of its regular books and records, each wholesaler licensed to sell spirituous liquor or wine is required to keep a monthly record of all allowances for breakage containing the name, address, and license number of the customer, the amount of breakage allowance, and the date and number of the invoice of sale for which allowance is given. No allowance for breakage may be given unless the broken bottle is returned to the seller within seventy-two (72) hours after delivery. Broken bottles are to be kept available on the wholesaler’s licensed premises for inspection by representatives of the supervisor and may not be removed from the licensed premises or destroyed except with permission from the supervisor.
(10) Posting of Contraband Spirituous Liquors and Wines Purchased from Supervisor. Bottles or cases of spirituous liquor or wine as described in section (4) which have been declared contraband and purchased by a wholesaler from the supervisor or the officer who seized the same under the provisions of sections 311.820 and 311.840, RSMo, or by a wholesaler from a wholesaler who so purchased the same, may be posted by the wholesaler at prices less than other spirituous liquors and wines of the same brand, age, and proof. When the spirituous liquors and wines are so posted, the pricing is to be accompanied by a writing on which the spirituous liquors and wines are exactly described and the quantity(ies) available for purchase set forth and upon sale of all or any part of the quantity a copy of the invoice shall be sent to the supervisor upon the day it is prepared. Only spirituous liquors and wines so purchased by a wholesaler may be sold at the posted prices.
(11) Discriminatory Agreements.
(A) No person holding a license as a manufacturer-solicitor or outstate solicitor of spirituous liquor or wine may enter into or participate in any combination or agreement with any person holding a license as a wholesaler for the sale of spirituous liquor or wine which restrict the customers to whom the wholesaler may sell merchandise which s/he owns.

(12) Universal Numeric Codes on Invoices. The Universal Numeric Code for Alcoholic Beverages and Missouri’s brand number is to be used to code all wines on all invoices written by any manufacturer, vintner, solicitor, and/or wholesaler licensed by the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control of Missouri; this includes invoices written by wholesalers to retail licensee. In addition, the descriptive data for spirituous liquors and wines includes the age or vintage, proof or percent of alcohol by weight, class and type, and brand name. Missouri wholesalers are to include brand name, age, and proof for spirituous liquors and vintage for wines on all invoices to retailers when the vintage creates a cost differential for the same type of wine.
Any failure of any person, firm, or corporation licensed under any provisions of Chapter 311, RSMo, to comply in all respects with the rules and any violation by any licensee of these rules may be deemed to be cause for the revocation or suspension of the license of the offending licensee.

(4) Statements required by these regulations to be stated in any written, printed, or graphic advertisement should appear in lettering or type of a size, kind, and color sufficient to render them both conspicuous and readily legible. In particular— (A) Required information shall be stated against a contrasting background and in type or lettering which is at least the equivalent of eight- (8-) point type;

(inserting the year in which the wine was bottled).
(12) No date, except as provided in this section and section (11) of this rule with respect to statement of vintage year and bottling date, may be stated unless, in addition to the year and date and in direct conjunction with the year and date, in the same size and kind of printing, an explanation of the significance of the date is stated. If any date refers to the date of establishment of any business, this date is to be stated without undue emphasis and in direct conjunction with the name of the person to whom it refers.

State ex rel. Letz v. Riley, 559 SW2d 631 (Mo. App. 1977). Despite the issuance by the attorney general of a “no action” letter stating that certain games in theory were not violative of Chapter 563, RSMo, the doctrine of equitable estoppel was not available to support an injunction restraining the supervisor of the Division of Liquor Control from enforcing Liquor Control Regulation 15(k)
(prohibiting any licensee from allowing any sort of gambling upon licensed premises) and 25II(c)(1)(g) (restricting advertisement of intoxicating liquor and nonintoxicating beer).

Regulation 28, permitting supervisor of liquor control to prohibit the transfer of a brand or the creation of a dual distributorship absent the showing of a good business reason, (“without reasonable cause, which cause must be submitted to the supervisor of liquor control in writing”) the employment of “reasonable cause” in regulation 28 renders it invalid and void because the language used is so sweeping and broad that it clothes the supervisor with arbitrary power that is incompatible with the test of “reasonableness” and it is “inconsistent” with the objectives of the Liquor Control Law and the legitimate evils sought to be eliminated.

PURPOSE: This rule defines terms and explains the operation of the Missouri Veterans Homes Program under sections 42.100 to 42.130, RSMo.
(1) As used herein, unless the text clearly indicates otherwise, the following terms shall mean:

(2) Admissions.
(A) Eligibility criteria. In order to be eligible for admission as a resident to a Missouri Veterans Home, a person must— 1. Be a citizen of Missouri who has maintained physical residency in Missouri for one hundred eighty (180) days prior to application for placement in a Missouri Veterans Home;
-

The priority of applicants on a waiting list shall be established according to the following criteria:
- Priority one: applicants with a singular or combined rating of seventy percent (70%) or more based on one (1) or more service-connected disabilities as defined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, and/or has been determined to be in need of skilled care for a Department of Veterans Affairs adjudicated service-connected disability, and/or has a rating of total disability based on individual unemployability; and 2. Priority two: all remaining eligible applicants.
(3) Hardships.
(A) Threshold.
-
When the State of Missouri is providing thirty-five percent (35%) or more of the funding necessary for the care of those veterans who are not deemed full cost of care by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the Missouri Veterans Commission (MVC) will maintain an allocation cap of approximately five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) dedicated to hardships, which may be allocated to residents or applicants of any or all of its Veterans Homes.
-
Once the five hundred thousand dollar ($500,000) hardship threshold is met, MVC will continue to accept hardship applications within its Veterans Homes, but will not admit applicants requesting a hardship until such time as MVC is below the five hundred thousand dollar ($500,000) hardship threshold.
-
When MVC returns to below the five hundred thousand dollar ($500,000) hardship threshold, MVC will consider outstanding hardship applications in the order that they were received. MVC reserves the right to request updated information from hardship applicants as necessary to determine the applicant’s current need for a hardship.
(B) Determinations.
-
All hardship requests will be reviewed by the Missouri Veterans Home Program Hardship Review Team (HRT).
-
The HRT shall convene within ten (10) business days of receipt of each hardship application and all required supporting documentation.
-
The HRT will consist of the following MVC personnel: the director of Homes Program, the director of Budget and Finance, and the director of Veterans Services Program, or their respective designees. The home administrator, admissions coordinator, and accounts supervisor of the applicable Missouri Veterans Home will present the hardship application to the HRT during the meeting.
-
In collaboration with the HRT, the director of Homes Program will make the final decision on each hardship application and direct that a letter be sent to the hardship applicant notifying him/her of that decision. The letter notifying the hardship applicant of the final decision shall specifically state the decision and, if the hardship is not granted, the process to appeal the decision. If applicable, the letter notifying the hardship applicant of the final decision shall also state that full payment for all outstanding room and care expenses is due by the tenth of the following month.
(C) Appeals.
- Hardship applicants wishing to appeal the denial of their request must submit their appeal request in accordance with the appeals process set forth in section (5) of this rule.
(4) Involuntary Discharge from a Missouri Veterans Home.
(A) Residents of Missouri Veterans Homes may be involuntarily discharged from the facility in which they reside for any of the following reasons:
-
The resident’s welfare and the resident’s needs cannot be met in the facility;
-
The resident’s health has improved sufficiently so the resident no longer needs the services provided by the facility;
-
The safety of individuals in the facility is endangered by the resident’s continued residency in the facility;
-
The health of individuals in the facility would be endangered by the resident’s continued residency in the facility;
-
The resident has failed, after reasonable and appropriate notice, to pay for his or her care or stay at the facility; or 6. The facility ceases to operate.
(B) Documentation. When a Missouri Veterans Home discharges a resident involuntarily, the facility’s medical director must document the reason for such discharge in the resident’s clinical record.
(C) Notice of discharge. Before a resident is discharged from a Missouri Veterans Home, the facility must— 1. Notify the resident or legal representative of the discharge and the reasons for the discharge in writing and in a language and manner they understand;
- Record the reasons for the discharge in the resident’s clinical record; and 3. Include in the notice the following items:
A. The reason(s) for discharge;
B. The effective date of the discharge;
C. The location to which the resident will be discharged;
D. A statement that the resident has the right to appeal the action to the director of the Missouri Veterans Homes Program; and E. The name, address, and telephone number of the local office of the state long-term care ombudsman.
(D) Timing of the notice. The notice of discharge required under this rule must be made by the facility at least thirty (30) days before the resident is discharged, except in cases of emergency discharges as provided for in this rule.
- Emergency discharges. In cases where the director of the Missouri Veterans Homes Program determines the resident poses an imminent risk to the health and safety of him or herself, or to that of the facility’s staff or other residents by continued residence in the facility, the director of the Missouri Veterans Homes Program may authorize the use of emergency discharge procedures in which the resident may be discharged from the facility as soon as practicable. In such cases, the Missouri Veterans Home need not provide thirty (30) days notice of the discharge, but must adhere to the remaining notice requirements set forth in this rule.
(E) Orientation for transfer or discharge. Missouri Veterans Home facility management must ensure sufficient preparation and orientation is available to residents to ensure safe and orderly discharge from the facility.
(F) Discharge summary. Prior to discharging a resident, Missouri Veterans Home facility management must prepare a discharge summary that includes— 1. A recapitulation of the resident’s stay;
- A summary of the resident’s status at the time of the discharge to include a comprehensive assessment conducted or coordinated by a registered nurse with the participation of appropriate healthcare professionals, including at least one (1) physician, the registered nurse, and one (1) social worker. The registered nurse must sign and certify the assessment. The comprehensive assessment is to determine the care, treatment, and services that will meet the resident’s initial and continuing needs. The assessment must be an objective evaluation of the resident’s health and functional status, describing the resident’s capabilities and impairments in performing activities of daily living, strengths, and needs; and 3. A post-discharge plan of care developed with the participation of the resident and his or her family, which will assist the resident to adjust to his or her new living environment.
