Keweenaw Bay Indian Community waits on BIA

printer friendly
The Keweenaw Bay Indian Community in Michigan is hopeful that it will gain federal approval to relocate its casino.

The tribe filed a two-part determination application in March. President/CEO Susan LaFernier said she is waiting to hear back from the Bureau of Indian Affairs for the next step in the process.

The tribe previously filed a land-into-trust application for the land in 1999. The two-part determination is necessary to conduct gaming on the site.

A bill pending in the Senate would eliminate the two-part determination process altogether.
