The volost was formed from three national selsoviets: ( Shyoltozero, Shoksha , and Rybreka ) comprising thirteen villages (earlier established, by formal renaming from "selsoviet" to "national selsoviet", in 1992-1993). [2]
It was disestablished on December 1, 2004. [8] After its disestablishment, within the territory three rural municipalities were established: ru:Шокшинское вепсское сельское поселение, ru:Шелтозерское вепсское сельское поселение, and ru:Рыборецкое вепсское сельское поселение subordinated back to Prionezhsky District. [2]
In 2005 there was a sizzled attempt to restore the volost within the framework of the planned 2006 administrative reform in Russia. [2]
