Indian Gaming Unit
The Indian Gaming Unit is also under the purview of the Administrative Support & Indian Gaming Section. The sovereignty of the Indian lands place the need for special attention to be given to the Indian Gaming establishments to ensure the Division continues operating as to the agreements stipulated in the compacts. These signed tribal compacts empower the Division's Indian Gaming personnel to co-regulate the gaming industry on Indian reservations. The Troopers/Investigators assigned to the Indian Gaming establishments are charged with preventing organized crime and other criminal elements from infiltrating and corrupting games of chance on Indian land. The Division oversees the gaming operations which require it to approve all types of games, rules of play, certify all gaming employees, certify all casino vendors, and enforce criminal statutes on the gaming floor. Presently, three Indian casinos are in operation - Cypress Bayou Casino Resort in Charenton, Paragon Casino Resort in Marksville, and Coushatta Casino Resort in Kinder.
