NATIONAL INDIAN GAMING COMMISSION Notice of Approved Class III Tribal Gaming Ordinance National Indian Gaming Commission. ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: The purpose of this notice is to inform the public of the approval of Ione Band of Miwok Indians’ Class III gaming ordinance by the Chairman of the National Indian Gaming Commission. SUMMARY: This ordinance was approved and went into effect on March 6, 2018. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Frances Fragua, Office of General Counsel at the National Indian Gaming Commission, 202–632–7003, or by facsimile at 202–632–7066 (not toll-free numbers). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) 25 U.S.C. 2701 et seq., established the National Indian Gaming Commission (Commission). Section 2710 of IGRA authorizes the Chairman of the Commission to approve Class II and Class III tribal gaming ordinances. Section 2710(d)(2)(B) of IGRA, as implemented by NIGC regulations, 25 CFR 522.8, requires the Chairman to publish, in the Federal Register, approved Class III tribal gaming ordinances and the approvals thereof. IGRA requires all tribal gaming ordinances to contain the same requirements concerning tribes’ sole proprietary interest and responsibility for the gaming activity, use of net revenues, annual audits, health and safety, background investigations and licensing of key employees and primary management officials. The Commission, therefore, believes that publication of each ordinance in the Federal Register would be redundant and result in unnecessary cost to the Commission. Thus, the Commission believes that publishing a notice of approved Class III tribal gaming ordinances in the Federal Register, is sufficient to meet the requirements of 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(2)(B). Every approved tribal gaming ordinance, every approved ordinance amendment, and the approval thereof, are posted on the Commission’s On March 6, 2018, the Chairman of the National Indian Gaming Commission approved Ione Band of Miwok Indians’ Class III Gaming Ordinance. A copy of the ordinance and approval letter can be found on the NIGC’s website (www.nigc.gov) under General Counsel, Gaming Ordinances.

Dyno Nobel, Inc., Case No. 3:19–CV–05031–MDH. The United States filed this lawsuit against Dyno Nobel, Inc., (Dyno Nobel) for alleged violations of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) at its facilities in Carthage, Missouri and Louisiana, Missouri. Specifically, the United States alleged that Dyno Nobel violated the CWA at both facilities by discharging pollutants in amounts that exceeded the facilities’ permitted limits; failing to properly sample and monitor discharges; and failing to appropriately manage stormwater. The United States further alleged that Dyno violated RCRA by disposing of hazardous waste at both facilities without a permit, and at the Carthage Facility, by failing to meet requirements for the generation and transportation of hazardous waste. Under the proposed Consent Decree Dyno Nobel will undertake injunctive measures at both its facilities. At its Carthage facility, Dyno Nobel will separate stormwater from process wastewater, ship high-strength wastewater off-site, update its stormwater program, sample and clean up discrete areas, and construct a baghouse to address dope releases. At its Louisiana facility, Dyno will perform a sewer survey and update its stormwater program. Dyno Nobel will also pay a civil penalty of $2.9 million in addition to interest. In return, the United States agrees not to sue for the claims alleged in the Complaint and for additional permit violations through, the date of lodging (February 27, 2020).
