Christie Declares State Of Emergency
|
Governor Christie has declared a State Of Emergency in New Jersey as a powerful coastal storm has flooded the state, knocked out power to thousands and continues to cause problems on this Monday morning.
According to a press release issued by the Governor’s office, The State of Emergency, similar to one declared on February 9 for some southern counties of the state due to heavy snow fall, broadens powers of the New Jersey State Police to activate elements of the State Emergency Operations Plan, including traffic control, limiting access and egress from impacted areas and issuing evacuation orders if needed, among other powers.
