Working with several Truck Stops in the Commonwealth SEAM has determined that a minimum of twenty four skill game machines are required at a Truck Stop. These games or machines will be placed in several location within the Truck Stop to service the needs of the hundreds of Commercial Drivers that visit the facilities each day. If the number of machines drops below twenty It becomes difficult to service the needs of the customers and to prevent waiting lines from forming. Therefore, I would respectfully request that the number of skill games allowed in a Truck Stop be no less than twenty four. 

It should also be noted that the many ABC License locations are under 2000 sq ft. and under the current draft regulation will be allowed 6 machines. Whereas, many Truck Stops are over 20,000 sqft. and will be limited to 12 machines. It would be a more efficient program to manage for the VA. ABC if more machines are allowed at each locations. 

Many Truck Stops do not have ABC Licenses therefore they will be unable to combine the c-store component with the Truck Stop component to reach twenty machines which would or should be the bare minimum for a Truck Stop.
