This notice announces that the Amendment to the Forest County Potawatomi Community of Wisconsin and the State of Wisconsin Class III Gaming Compact is taking effect.

Under section 11 of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) Public Law 100-497, 25 U.S.C. 2701 et seq., the Secretary of the Interior shall publish in the Federal Register notice of approved Tribal-State compacts for the purpose of engaging in Class III gaming activities on Indian lands. As required by 25 CFR 293.4, all compacts and amendments are subject to review and approval by the Secretary. The Secretary took no action on the Amendment to the Forest County Potawatomi Community of Wisconsin and State of Wisconsin Class III Gaming Compact within 45 days of its submission. Therefore, the Amendment to the Compact is considered to have been approved, but only to the extent it is consistent with IGRA. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8)(C).
