Chugach Alaska Corporation, or CAC, is one of thirteen Alaska Native Regional Corporations created under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act of 1971 (ANCSA) in settlement of aboriginal land claims. Chugach Alaska Corporation was incorporated in Alaska on June 23, 1972. Headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska, Chugach Alaska Corporation is a for-profit corporation with over 2,200 Alaska Native shareholders primarily of Chugach Alutiiq, Eyak, and Tlingit descent.

Shareholders

At incorporation, Chugach Alaska Corporation enrolled about 2,000 Alaska Native shareholders, each of whom received 100 shares of CAC stock. CAC currently has about 2,200 shareholders. As an ANCSA corporation, Chugach Alaska Corporation has no publicly traded stock and its shares cannot legally be sold.

Lands

The Chugach region encompasses about 10 million acres (40,000 km2) in Prince William Sound and coastal areas of southcentral Alaska, including the southern coast of the Kenai Peninsula. Chugach Alaska Corporation's land entitlement under ANCSA includes about 378,000 acres (1,530 km2) of both surface and subsurface estate and a further 550,000 acres (2,200 km2) of subsurface estate, for a total of 928,000 acres (3,760 km2). As of 2006, CAC has received about 94% of its total entitlement.

Business enterprises

Under federal law, Chugach Alaska Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiaries, joint ventures and partnerships are deemed to be "minority and economically disadvantaged business enterprise[s]" (43 USC 1626(e)).

History

The corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 1991 as a result of a fallout in the timber industry, a salmon glut, a fire at its Orca cannery, and the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill's impact on the local herring population. In 2003 Chugach ranked second in Alaska Business Monthly’s list of Top 49ers, a ranking of the top Alaskan-owned and operated businesses.
