Table Mountain Rancheria, which runs a casino north of Fresno that would compete with the new casino, has kicked in $10.95 million of the nearly $15.96 million raised by opponents. The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sacramento at Fire Mountain starts taking reservations today, in advance of opening its doors this fall. The project marks an historic partnership between two Tribes: the Seminole Tribe of Florida, owners of Hard Rock International, and the Estom Yumeka Maidu Tribe of the Enterprise Rancheria. The Table Mountain Rancheria Tribal Council and Casino Board of Directors have jointly agreed to extend the temporary closure of our tribal casino, originally effective from March 16 to a.
The Estom Yumeka Maidu Tribe of the Enterprise Rancheria opened the doors to its long-awaited casino in California last month. The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Sacramento at Fire Mountain was more than a decade in the making. It is the first facility in the state that opened pursuant to the two-part determination provisions of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. The $440 million Fire Mountain is also the first 'Hard Rock' property in California. The internationally-known brand is owned by the Seminole Tribe. 'This project is the first of its kind, with two tribes joining together to bring this integrated resort to life,' Enterprise Chairwoman Glenda Nelson said in a news release after the grand guitar smash ceremony on October 30.. 'We are proud of our partnership with Hard Rock and the Seminole Tribe, and we are enthusiastic to continue collaborating to provide guests with an unparalleled entertainment destination experience.'Very special blessing from the Redwood Standing Singer as we kick off this #GuitarSmashpic.twitter.com/7pR7SYzMHU
— Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sacramento (@HRHCSacramento) October 30, 2019 The casino is located on a 40-acre site about 35 miles from Sacramento, the state capital. The land was placed in trust by the Bureau of Indian Affairs in 2012. The BIA's decision came after the tribe secured federal, as well as state, approval to open the casino, a process that took about a decade. Litigation from tribes with existing facilities delayed the official opening. The North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians also has completed both steps of the two-part determination process. But that project, located on a 305-acre site, remains in limbo due to opposition from rival tribes. In a related development, the BIA has approved a two-part determination for the Tule River Tribe, whose leaders plan to move the existing Eagle Mountain Casino to a more prominent site. The state governor's concurrence is needed before the project can move forward; Separate from Fire Mountain, Hard Rock has partnered with the Tejon Tribe on another casino in California. The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tejon is to be located near Bakersfield, more than 270 miles south of Sacramento. The project is still under review at the BIA. It's possible the tribe might follow the two-part determination process, according to the scoping report for the forthcoming environmental impact statement. The tribe might also qualify for an exception in Section 20 of IGRA since it was recently restored to federal recognition.

The Estom Yumeka Maidu of the Enterprise Rancheria received the Large Deal of the Year Award Tuesday from the Native American Finance Officers Association (NAFOA) for its work partnering with Hard Rock International and the Seminole Tribe of Florida to build a new casino and hotel in Yuba County.
“We are pleased to recognize the Enterprise Rancheria for their perseverance and leadership in bringing about this extraordinary deal for the benefit of their members and the larger community,” said VaRene Martin, director of Tribal and Corporate Relations for NAFOA, in a press release.
Enterprise Rancheria is partnering with the Seminole Tribe and Hard Rock International on the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Sacramento at Fire Mountain project currently under construction on Forty Mile Road in Yuba County. The casino is set to open this fall.
Last July, Enterprise Rancheria issued $450 million of senior secured notes to finance the construction of the new facility.
“The Enterprise Rancheria is thrilled to receive this award and honored to work with Hard Rock, the Seminole Tribe, our banks and financial and legal advisors to make possible the best, most exciting and authentic gaming, hospitality, and entertainment experiences in Northern California,” said tribal Chairperson Glenda Nelson in a press release. “Construction has progressed full-steam ahead since last summer and we are on track for an exciting fall 2019 grand opening.”

The joint effort represents one of the largest partnerships ever between two sovereign Native nations and the first since Hard Rock International completed the acquisition of casino and hotel-casino rights in the western U.S.
The NAFOA was created to highlight the role of tribal finance in fostering economic opportunities. Tuesday’s award ceremony was conducted during the association’s annual conference in Portland.
