The Pinoleville Band of Pomo Indians of California is moving forward with a casino project.
The tribe plans to build a casino on 8.8. acres north of Ukiah. Groundbreaking is expected in the late spring or early summer of 2010.
"We have been planning for about nine years on this one project," Vice Chairperson Angela James said at a meeting held by the tribe, The Ukiah Daily Journal reported.
Kennec Earth Engineering and Science is preparing an environmental impact report for the casino. Company representatives expect its release in a couple of weeks.
The tribe was terminated by an act of Congress in 1966. The tribe was restored to recognition in 1983 as a result of the Tillie Hardwick case.
