The Tribe does hereby adopt and make applicable to the gaming facility the federal water quality and safe drinking water standards applicable in the state.

A. The Tribe will allow, during normal hours of operation, inspection and testing of water quality at the gaming facility by federal or state inspectors, who provide evidence of authority demonstrating that they would have jurisdiction but for the gaming facility being on Indian lands, to assess compliance with these standards, unless inspections and testing are routinely made by an agency of the United States pursuant to federal law to ensure compliance with federal water quality and safe drinking water standards.

B. Any report or other writings by the federal or state inspectors provided to the Tribe shall be transmitted by the Tribe within three (3) business days to the state gaming agency and the Wilton Gaming Commission.

C. Nothing herein shall be construed as submission of the Tribe to the jurisdiction of those federal or state health inspectors, but any violations of the standards may be the subject of compact dispute resolution per Section 13.0 of the compact. (Res. 2019-34)
