(a) The
reserve fill cabinet (compartment) is a secured area, separately keyed from the
drop cabinet, for storing reserve fill bags. No more than two fills shall be in
the compartment at any given time. Compartment fill procedures are not allowed
for manual and system overrides. When a slot machine requiring a hopper fill
has a compartment, the Slot Attendant or Slot Supervisor will prepare a
two-part request for hopper fill slip with the following information:
1. machine number;
2. denomination;
3. date and time;
4. dollar amount of fill required;
5. signature of Slot Attendant or Slot
Supervisor; and
6. signature of
verifier.
The duplicate request for hopper fill slip will be maintained
in the reserve fill cabinet and the original request for hopper fill slip will
be secured until replenishment. If the computerized slot system records and
generates a report indicating the employees name, date, time and purpose for
each opening of the reserve fill cabinet door, and the computerized slot system
initiates and validates the fill transaction and prints the dollar amount of
the fill on the hopper fill slip, then the transfer of funds from the reserve
fill cabinet to the slot machine hopper may be performed by one Slot Attendant
or Slot Supervisor without the use of a request slip.
(b) At least once a day, requests
for hopper fills will be processed. The cashier will receive a two-part hopper
fill slip. The cage cashier preparing the funds and the Slot Attendant or Slot
Supervisor must sign the two-part hopper fill slip(s) before the funds are
disbursed. The duplicate copy of the hopper fill slip(s) and the original
request for hopper fill slip(s), if applicable, will be retained by the cashier
for balancing. The original hopper fill slip(s) and the funds will be
transported to the appropriate reserve fill cabinet(s). The verifier shall
observe the placement of the funds in the compartment and the locking of the
compartment before signing the original hopper fill slip(s). The original
hopper fill slip(s) and the duplicate request for hopper fill slip(s), if
applicable, shall be deposited into the locked Accounting box by the Slot
Attendant or Slot Supervisor.
