Amendment to Proclamation of Disaster Emergency [34 Pa.B. 6129] November 4, 2004
Whereas, on August 5, 2004, I declared a State of Disaster Emergency in Delaware County and the contiguous counties of Montgomery and Philadelphia due to widespread and unusually severe storms, heavy rain, high winds and flooding, which struck the counties and caused extensive damage to roads, streets, bridges, private homes, businesses and posed other adverse life safety impacts upon the general population of the region; and
Whereas, on September 3, 2004, I requested that the incident period for the disaster be amended to begin on July 27, 2004, and said request was approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency on October 8, 2004.
Now Therefore, pursuant to the provisions of Subsection 7301(c) of the Emergency Management Services Code (35 Pa.C.S.A. Section 7101 et seq. as amended), I do hereby amend my Proclamation of August 5, 2004, as follows:
1. The period of the State of Disaster Emergency is extended from November 6, 2004 to February 5, 2005.
2. I hereby direct that the other operational provisions of the August 5, 2004 Proclamation that remain applicable to the current emergency circumstances in the counties shall continue in full force and effect.
3. This amendment to Proclamation shall take effect immediately.
Given under my hand and the Seal of the Governor, at the City of Harrisburg, this fourth day of November in the year of our Lord, two thousand and four and of the Commonwealth, the two hundred and twenty-ninth.
Governor
