Stakeholders are invited to submit their comments on these adjustments before February 24, 2025. The changes are scheduled to take effect in the calendar year 2026, and further information on the projects and rates can be sought through BIA's regional offices.

    The Bureau of Indian Affairs announced the approval of several Tribal-State gaming compacts in California, which govern the operation of class III gaming activities for certain Native American tribes. The compacts with tribes, including the Campo Band of Diegueno Mission Indians and the Timbisha Shoshone Tribe, were automatically approved by law because the Secretary of the Interior did not review them within the 45-day period required by the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. These approvals only apply to parts of the compacts that comply with federal law. The compacts take effect on December 26, 2024.

    Simple Explanation

    In California, certain Native American tribes were given automatic permission to run special games, like those in a casino, because the person in charge didn't say yes or no within the time limit. This means their games are allowed as long as they follow the rules.
