The Confederated Tribes of the
Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon hopes to receive an answer on its off-reservation casino later this spring.
But even if the Bureau of Indian Affairs finalizes the environmental impact
statement, it will be awhile before a casino is up and running in Cascade Locks.
“It’s still at least three years away even if there is a decision.” tribal political advisor Len Bergstein told The Hood River News.
In the meantime, the tribe is relocating the Kah-Nee-Ta Resort &
Casino to a new site off a major highway. Tribal leaders hope the move will generate additional revenues.
