The casino licensee shall promptly report to the Commission any deviation between the invoice accompanying the chips and the actual chips received or any defects found in the chips. The supplier licensee shall give the Commission prior notification of the delivery of chips to the casino licensee. The casino licensee shall not accept the delivery of chips unless the Commission has been given prior notification of the delivery.

71.2.a. The denomination of the chips received;

71.2.b. The number of each denomination of chip received;

71.2.c. The number and description of all non-value chips received;

71.2.d. The date of the receipt; and

71.2.e. The signature of the individuals who checked the chips.

71.3. If any of the chips received are to be held as reserve chips and not used either at the gaming tables or at a cashier's cage, then a licensee shall ensure that the chips are stored in a separate locked compartment either in the vault or in a cashier's cage and are recorded in the chip inventory ledger as reserve chips.

71.4. A casino licensee shall ensure that any chips received that are part of the secondary set of chips of the casino are recorded in the chip inventory ledger as secondary chips and are stored in a locked compartment in the casino vault separate from the reserve chips.
