From the press release:

For the Rincon Band of Luiseño Indians, it took seven years of litigation, negotiations, and an unorthodox route of approval to get their 1999 tribal-state gaming compact renegotiated. Setting a legal and political precedent as the first California agreement negotiated through the federal courts, the Rincon secretarial procedures were approved by Kevin Washburn, Assistant Secretary-Indian Affairs, February 8, 2013.
