Looking for the 1994 gaming compact between the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) and North Carolina
can this 1194 compact be found in tyhe Federal Register ... I could not locate it.
Answer
Thank you for your question.
The Federal Register has a notice of approval of the compact, but as far as I can tell, it does not have the text of the compact itself. This is the text of the Federal Register notice: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1994-10-03/html/94-24337.htm
You can find the full text of the compact on the Bureau of Indian Affairs website (bia.gov).
This is the page on the compact: https://www.bia.gov/gaming-compact/eastern-band-cherokee-indians-tribal-state-gaming-compact-4
This is the direct link to the full text of the compact: https://www.bia.gov/sites/default/files/dup/assets/as-ia/oig/pdf/508_compliant_1994.10.03_eastern_band_of_cherokee_tribal_state_gaming_compact.pdf
The BIA site can be extremely slow, so it may take as long as a few minutes for any of the links to load. To sidestep any technical problems, I have attached a PDF of the compact to this response. Let me know if you have any problems downloading it.
I hope this information is helpful. If this is not what you need, or if you should require any further assistance, please let me know.
