Pedro Bay Corporation


Following the passing of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA), the Pedro Bay Corporation was formed on September 11, 1973, as the village corporation of Pedro Bay alongside more than 200 other Alaska Native village corporations and 12 Alaska Native Regional Corporations. The act aimed to establish a system of corporate ownership in order to establish financial independence for Alaska Natives, with the Pedro Bay Corporation coming to represent 170 shareholders of Aleut, Eskimo and Indian heritage from the village and surrounding area since its formation. The Pedro Bay Corporation is responsible for the oversight of approximately 92,100 acres (373 km2) of surface land, while the Alaska Native regional corporation for the region, Bristol Bay Native Corporation, owns all subsurface area as defined by ANCSA.
Since its formation, the company's operations have grown to include security services; land, natural resource, and agricultural services; construction; project planning, management and contract administration; transportation services; and medical clinics, physician assistant, EMT, and drug and alcohol testing services. Additionally, the PBC-owned company Pedro Bay Contractors works throughout the area on tasks having to do with observation and security services; land, natural resource, and agricultural services; commercial construction, design, and build; and project planning, management, and contract administration solutions.
As defined by the company's Land Use Policy, access is allowed to the public with written permission on a limited basis. Dividends are paid annually in December to all shareholders and elders represented by the company in addition to scholarship and employment opportunities offered annually.
