TRIBAL GAMING ENFORCEMENT

Three tribal casinos operate as soverign entities under the authority of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. These casinos and the Iowa Department of Inspections and Appeals enter into compacts which contain provisions intended to implement the policies and objectives of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act.

During the legislative session in 2008, DCI was allocated one agent position to provide assistance to DIA for oversight and adherence to compacts between the tribes and DIA.

Iowa's tribal casinos are:

• Mesqwaki Bingo and Casino - located near Tama (Sac & Fox Tribe of the Mississippi)
• Casino Omaha - Located near Onawa (Omaha Tribe of Nebraska)
• WinnaVegas - Located near Sloan (Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska)
