SUBCHAPTER D (RESERVED) SUBCHAPTER E TABLE GAME TESTING AND CERTIFICATION Sec. 13A41. Table game device and associated equipment testing and certification standards. § 13A41. Table game device and associated equipment testing and certification standards. (a) Expansion of independent testing and certification facility.--Within one year of the effective date of this section, the board shall expand the independent testing and certification facility created under section 1320(b) (relating to slot machine testing and certification standards) to include the testing and certification of table game devices and associated equipment. Costs associated with the expansion of the facility shall be assessed on manufacturers licensed to manufacture table game devices or associated equipment under this part in accordance with a schedule adopted by the board. The expanded facility shall be made available to each table game device manufacturer and supplier as determined by the board. (b) Use of other state standards.--The board may determine whether the table game device testing and certification standards of another jurisdiction within the United States in which a manufacturer licensed pursuant to section 1317.1 (relating to manufacturer licenses) to manufacture table game devices or associated equipment used in connection with table games is licensed are comprehensive and thorough and provide similar adequate safeguards as those required by this part. If the board makes that determination, it may permit the manufacturer appropriately licensed pursuant to section 1317.1 to deploy table game devices or associated equipment it manufactures which have met the table game device testing and certification standards in another jurisdiction without undergoing the full testing and certification process by the board's independent testing and certification facility.
