HB 337 Alaska House · 34th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act extending the governor's October 9, 2025, declaration of a disaster emergency in response to the 2025 West Coast Storm; and providing for an effective date.

This bill extends Alaska's state of emergency for the 2025 West Coast Storm until March 8, 2026, retroactively covering the period starting February 6, 2026. It allows state agencies to continue emergency response efforts related to the storm's ongoing impacts on infrastructure. The extension follows previous renewals and aligns with Alaska Statute 26.23.020(c), which requires legislative approval for emergency extensions beyond 30 days. The bill directly affects state agencies managing disaster recovery operations.
