Sec. 4.1. Unless otherwise provided in this title, if an occupational licensee finds chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents in the casino, the occupational licensee must turn the chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents in to the appropriate area of the main bank of the casino licensee. The casino licensee shall maintain the chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents for a period of at least twenty (20) days to determine if a patron will claim the chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents. If the chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents are not claimed by a patron, the casino licensee shall institute one (1) of the following policies with respect to unclaimed chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents turned in by occupational licensees:

1. (1) If the chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents are not claimed by a patron, the chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents must be included in the drop on the gaming day the waiting period expires.
2. (2) The casino licensee shall handle the chips, TITOs, cash, or cash equivalents not claimed by a patron in accordance with a policy submitted by the casino licensee to the commission audit director and that has been approved by the executive director.

The casino licensee must disseminate this rule to all occupational licensees employed by the casino licensee or occupational licensees employed by another company but assigned to perform their duties at the casino licensee's casino gambling operation.
