Jemez Pueblo in New Mexico has resubmitted its off-reservation casino application.
The Bureau of Indian Affairs rejected the casino last year, citing jurisdictional concerns. The BIA also said the gaming site might be too far from the reservation to benefit the tribe.
The tribe has amended an intergovernmental agreement with Doña Ana County to address the concerns about its jurisdiction at the casino.
