SULLIVAN COUNTY, NY - The US Secretary of the Interior has denied a proposal
from the St. Regis Mohawks to build a casino at the Monticello Raceway.
Their plan was to build a 766,000 square foot two-story casino and entertainment
complex with 3,500 slot machines, 125 table games, 24 poker tables, restaurants,
nightlife entertainment facilities and retail stores.
In a change of policy the US Interior Department rejected 11 applications from
tribes seeking off-reservation casinos. The new policy is based on the commuting
distance from a reservation.
"The remote location of the proposed gaming facility may encourage reservation
residents to leave the reservation for an extended period to take advantage of
the job opportunities created," the department wrote. "The potential departure
of a significant number of reservation residents and their families could have
serious and far-reaching implications for the remaining tribal community and its
continuity as a community."
The department ruled that the 350-mile distance from the Akwesasne Reservation
to the Monticello casino is too far to offer job opportunities to tribal
residents.
The St. Regis Mohawk Tribe responded quickly to the ruling by filing a lawsuit
against the US Secretary of the Interior and his department. Now they will wait
for the legal process and hope for a change of policy with the next
administration.
