There are 11 compacted gaming tribes in Minnesota. The compacts with each tribe are substantially similar.
The tribal gaming commission has the primary responsibility for the on-site regulation, control and security of the gaming operation.
The Minnesota Department of Public Safety has the limited authority to monitor and inspect the gaming operations to ensure that the gaming operation is conducted in compliance with the compact and applicable regulations.
While tribes are authorized to enter into management contracts for the management of the tribal casinos, all have chosen not to do so.
