<\/p>\r\nCORNING, California — The Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians is pleased to announce that on August 3, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a new tribal-state gaming compact between the State of California and the Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians<\/a>. The new compact reflects a mutual commitment to a strong and respectful government-to-government relationship promoting tribal economic development and supporting Tribal Sovereignty.\r\n

<\/p>\r\n\u201cOn behalf of the Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians, we want to thank Governor Newsom and the state for working with us to approve and sign this new gaming compact,” said Tribal Chairman Andrew Alejandre. \u201cThe signing of this compact is a great milestone for us because it demonstrates that the state recognizes our tribal sovereignty and ensures revenue stability for our Tribe over the next 25 years.\u201d\r\n

<\/p>\r\nThe newly negotiated compact<\/a> is intended to support tribal government investment in expanded tribal government services, local jurisdictions, non-profit and civic organizations. The compact commits the Tribe to improve the environment, education status, and the health, safety and general welfare of its members and the surrounding community. The gaming compact will need to be approved by the U.S. Department of the Interior, in order to take full effect. Once approved, the Tribe will be able to operate up to 2,000 gaming devices. The compact regulates the operation of Class III Gaming activities to ensure a fair and honest operation, protecting the interests of the Tribe, the State, its citizens, and local communities.\r\n
