The Bureau of Indian Affairs has until February 19 to review a Class III gaming compact for the Stockbridge Munsee Band of
Mohican Indians of Wisconsin.
The tribe plans to open an off-reservation casino in the Catskills region of New York.
The deal reportedly includes an exclusivity provision.
The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act gives the BIA 45 days to review a compact. The agency can either approve it, reject it or let it take effect.
