CIVIC SERVICES REGISTER

Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area Sheriff Non-Emergency Number

Alaska has no county sheriff; the Prince of Wales post of the Alaska State Troopers is the law-enforcement agency serving Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area.

If this is an emergency, dial 9-1-1. The line below is a non-emergency business line.

No sheriff’s office exists for this jurisdiction. Alaska seats this function elsewhere. Under the register’s inheritance rule the covering authority is recorded by name rather than a substitute invented for the county model.
