If a disaster or emergency occurs that has not yet been declared to be a state of disaster or a state of emergency by the Governor, and the Township Supervisor determines that the situation is beyond the control of the township, the Supervisor may request that the Governor declare that a state of disaster or emergency exists in the township. The Emergency Management Coordinator shall immediately contact the District Coordinator. The District Coordinator, in conjunction with the Emergency Management Coordinator, shall assess the nature and scope of the disaster or emergency, and they shall recommend the state personnel, services, and equipment that will be required for its prevention, mitigation or relief.
