North Dakota's Gaming Division exercised its licensing-enforcement powers materially. The Attorney General's office revoked the charitable-gaming license of the Beulah Convention and Visitors Bureau, imposed a $50,000 fine, and required repayment of approximately $398,000 in unlawfully distributed funds to a trust account, a confirmed action corroborated by secondary local press coverage. Separately, East Main Investments, LLC (operating the Silver Dollar Bar site) had its site authorization suspended, with part of the suspension deferred over three years, for acting together with a licensed nonprofit organization to violate the state's gaming laws. These are the two most severe enforcement outcomes disclosed this monitoring period and together evidence an intensified enforcement posture reaching both charitable licensees and their commercial site partners. The underlying statutory enforcement authority is durable; the specific enforcement outcomes themselves are episodic rather than standing instruments. No cross-border enforcement or payment-flow risk material was identified.
