State of Emergency declared by Governor
With much of Oklahoma being impacted by an ice storm, Gov. Brad Henry today declared a State of Emergency for all 77 counties in the state.
The executive order marks a first step toward seeking federal assistance should it be necessary. Additionally, the executive order allows state agencies to make emergency purchases and acquisitions needed to expedite the delivery of resources to local jurisdictions.
The Governor also issued an executive order aimed at helping utility crews handle storm-related repairs, allowing a 30-day waiver on permit requirements for use of overweight and oversized vehicles. In the meantime, Gov. Henry is in close contact with state emergency management officials to determine the needs of areas impacted by the storm.
