...Assistant Secretary Larry Echo Hawk, U.S. Department of Interior, approved land-into-trust applications for the Enterprise (Fact Sheet) and the North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians (Fact Sheet). Both tribes are seeking to build casinos on land that is currently not part of a reservation and approximately 36 miles from each tribe’s respective headquarters...
The Guidville Band also sought a casino away from an existing reservation. According to a fact sheet, the BIA determined that the tribe lacked a modern and historical connection to the site, which is about 108 miles from its headquarters.
“The Guidiville Band’s application did not satisfy many of the requirements to develop a gaming facility at that particular site," Echo Hawk said in a press release.
