Chenega Bay is a unincorporated community in the Valdez-Cordova
Census Area, Alaska, USA on Crab Bay on Evans Island along Prince William
Sound. The town has about 80 inhabitants, largely consisting of Chugach
Alutiq Native Americans.
Chenega Bay
was established in 1984 as the result of a search for a place for former
residents of Chenega, Alaska to live in. Chenega was largely destroyed
in 1964 by a tsunami from the Alaska Earthquake, which killed 1/3 of the
68 people who then lived there.
In 1982, one family
moved to Evans Island and between 1984 and 1991 about 26 other families
migrated to Chenega Bay. As not all the residents moved
to Chenega Bay, old Chenega still exists as a village.
The population of
Chenega Bay suffered economically following the 1989
Exxon Valdez oil spill, as it killed much of the marine life around Evans
Island.
