Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Riverboat Gambling Act.  Permits riverboat gambling on      
   permanently  moored  barges.   Permits  dockside   gambling   if   the      
   municipality  or  county submits to the voters the question of whether      
   dockside gambling should be allowed in  the  municipality  or  county.      
   Allows  a  licensee  that  receives  Board  permission  to  operate  a      
   secondary  home  dock location and move up to two-thirds of its gaming      
   positions to that location if the licensee meets certain requirements.      
   Deletes provision that allows gambling excursion cruises only when the      
   navigable stream for which the riverboat  is  licensed  is  navigable.      
   Changes  the  license renewal period to 4 years.  Changes the wagering      
   tax from a flat tax on adjusted gross receipts to a graduated  tax  on
