The Cayuga Nation of New York has reopened its bingo hall.

The tribe is offering bingo and pull tabs at the facility, which closed several years ago as part of a legal dispute with the state and local authorities. The LakeSide Entertainment 1 is located on property that is the subject of a pending land-into-trust application.

The Bureau of Indian Affairs published a final environmental impact statement for the application in October 2010. A final decision, however, hasn't been made
