As expected, the Maryland Sports Wagering Application Review Commission published a set of approved proposed regulations on Friday in the Maryland Register, completing the latest step in bringing mobile sports wagering to the state by early next year.

The regulations will govern a lengthy application process in which the SWARC will award up to 60 mobile sports wagering licenses, as well as up to 30 Class B retail licenses for sports betting operations across the state. Maryland stakeholders largely expected Friday’s publication of the regulations after SWARC approved a series of proposed regulations in mid-July.

Written comments on SWARC’s proposed regulations will be accepted over a 30-day period through Sept 26.
