Indian Gaming; Approval of an Amendment to a Tribal-State Class 
III Gaming Compact in the State of Michigan

AGENCY: Bureau of Indian Affairs, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi and State of 
Michigan negotiated a Second Amendment to the Gaming Compact governing 
Class III gaming; this notice announces approval of the Second 
Amendment.

DATES: Effective December 12, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Paula L. Hart, Director, Office of 
Indian Gaming, Office of the Assistant Secretary--Indian Affairs, 
Washington, DC 20240, (202) 219-4066.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 11 of the Indian Gaming Regulatory 
Act (IGRA) requires the Secretary of the Interior to publish in the 
Federal Register notice of approved Tribal-State compacts that are for 
the purpose of engaging in Class III gaming activities on Indian lands. 
See Public Law 100-497, 25 U.S.C. 2701 et seq. All Tribal-State Class 
III compacts, including amendments, are subject to review and approval 
by the Secretary under 25 CFR 293.4. The Second Amendment does not 
change the revenue sharing requirements under the existing compact, but 
rather adjusts the destination of a portion of the Tribe's annual 
payment to be deposited into the Michigan Native American Heritage 
Fund, establishes a Heritage Fund Board and allows the Local Revenue 
Sharing Board to approve distributions in advance. The Second Amendment 
is approved. See 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(8)(A).

    Dated: November 28, 2016.
Lawrence S. Roberts,
Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary--Indian Affairs.
