Pedersen
Planning Consultants (PPC) is a subsidiary company of The Pedersen Corporation, a
subchapter S corporation registered in the State of Wyoming.
Jim Pedersen originally
established James Pedersen, Planning Consultant, in Volcano, Hawaii in 1986 after his
association with various engineering organizations in Alaska, Hawaii, and California.
Mr. Pedersen has served as principal planner and owner of the firm since its
inception. The firm served various public and private clients in Alaska, Hawaii,
American Samoa, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of Palau, and the
Territory of Guam. Pedersen Planning Consultants provided a wide range of planning
services that supported public infrastructure and economic development programs, and other
private investment projects.
In 1994, the firm
relocated its corporate office to Encampment, Wyoming and changed its name to Pedersen
Planning Consultants (PPC). The relocation was made to expand PPCs service
area to include the Intermountain and Rocky Mountain region of the continental United
States (Figure 1). Mr. Pedersens wife, Sandy, who had been actively involved
with the company, became a co-owner at that time.
Since 1994, PPC has provided regional and community land use
planning,
economic development, and land use management services to
state and local government and quasi-public agencies in
Wyoming and Colorado ( Figure 1).
Pedersen Planning Consultants also continues to provide
regional, community, site-specific, and natural resource
management planning services to small and remote communities
in the Pacific Islands ( Figure
2). In both regions, the firm specializes in planning services
to smaller and remote communities.
