Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 194 / Thursday, October 8, 2009 / Notices
entities must be licensed by the State of
Washington. The Amendment also
significantly modifies the dispute
resolution processes to a more
collaborative model providing a prompt
‘‘meet and confer’’ requirement, then
mediation, and finally, as a last resort,
either arbitration or litigation. The
Tribe’s limited waiver of sovereign
immunity is clarified and narrowed to
include only disputes arising under the
compact. The State similarly waives its
sovereign immunity, including a
specific waiver of the State’s Eleventh
Amendment immunity from suit for the
purposes of enforcing the compact.
Finally, the proposed amendment
changes the annual licensing
requirements from annually to every
three years.
