Extending the governor's October 9, 2025, declaration of a disaster emergency in response to the 2025 West Coast Storm; and approving an amended financing plan.
This bill extends Alaska's state disaster emergency declaration for the 2025 West Coast Storm until March 8, 2026, retroactively from February 6, 2026. It approves an additional $5.5 million in state disaster relief funds, bringing the total to $39.25 million (split between $18.75 million in federal funds and $20.5 million in state general funds). The extension allows state agencies to continue emergency response efforts and manage infrastructure recovery costs. This directly affects state agencies responsible for disaster response and infrastructure repair following the storm.
