SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988,
25 U.S.C. 2701 et seq., (IGRA) provides
the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary)
with 45 days to review and approve or
disapprove the Tribal-State compact
governing the conduct of Class III
gaming activity on the Tribe’s Indian
lands. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8). If the
Secretary does not approve or
disapprove a Tribal-State compact
within the 45 days, IGRA provides the
Tribal-State compact is considered to
have been approved by the Secretary,
but only to the extent the compact is
consistent with IGRA. See 25 U.S.C.
2710(d)(8)(D). The IGRA also requires
the Secretary to publish in the Federal
Register notice of the approved TribalState compacts for the purpose of
engaging in Class III gaming activities
on Indian lands. See 25 U.S.C.
2710(d)(8)(D). The Department’s
regulations at 25 CFR 293.4 require all
compacts and amendments to be
reviewed and approved by the Secretary
prior to taking effect. The Secretary took
no action on the Fifth Amendment to
the Compact between the Cowlitz
Indian Tribe and the State of
Washington, within the 45-day statutory
review period. Therefore, the Compact
is considered to have been approved,
but only to the extent it is consistent
with IGRA. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8)(C).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, 25
U.S.C. 2701 et seq., (IGRA) provides the Secretary of the Interior
(Secretary) with 45 days to review and approve or disapprove the
Tribal-State compact governing the conduct of Class III gaming activity
on the Tribe's Indian lands. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8). If the Secretary
does not approve or disapprove a Tribal-State compact within the 45
days, IGRA provides the Tribal-State compact is considered to have been
approved by the Secretary, but only to the extent the compact is
consistent with IGRA. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8)(D). The IGRA also
requires the Secretary to publish in the Federal Register notice of the
approved Tribal-State compacts for the purpose of engaging in Class III
gaming activities on Indian lands. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8)(D). The
Department's regulations at 25 CFR 293.4 require all compacts and
amendments to be reviewed and approved by the Secretary prior to taking
effect. The Secretary took no action on the Fifth Amendment to the
Compact between the Cowlitz Indian Tribe and the State of Washington,
within the 45-day statutory review period. Therefore, the Compact is
considered to have been approved, but only to the extent it is
consistent with IGRA. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8)(C).
