Cayuga Nation, county reach deal on inspections
Thursday, May 12, 2005
The Cayuga Nation and Seneca County, New York, have reached an agreement to allow inspections of the tribe's gas stations.
The agreement allows testing of the gas pumps at the LakeSide Trading gas station.
It preserves the tribe's sovereignty claim to the land.
The county moved to inspect the station in light of the U.S. Supreme Court decision that said tribes cannot "unilaterally" assert sovereignty to land that has been out of their possession without going through the land-into-trust process. The Cayuga Nation has asked for its properties to be taken into trust.
