About the Program
The NSB PLB Program is a FREE service to all North Slope residents that provides you rapid access to rescue services in case of emergency when travelling about our home land.
Whether you or a companion become injured or a critical piece of machinery breaks, if you need help simply activate your PLB and Search and Rescue will know your exact location to provide assistance.
