County Commissioner declares Level 1 travel advisory for area
Greene County Emergency Management Agency Executive Director Roger Axe issued a press release announcing the decision of Greene County Commissioner Nathan Abrams as to the county’s official travel advisory in light of predicted incoming bad weather.
Axe said Abrams has declared a Level 1 travel advisory as of 9 p.m..
Travel advisory levels are as follows:
Level 1-Advisory
The lowest level of local travel advisory means that routine travel or activities may be restricted in areas because of a hazardous situation, and individuals should use caution or avoid those areas.
Level 2-Watch
Means that conditions are threatening to the safety of the public. During a “watch” local travel advisory, only essential travel, such as to and from work or in emergency situations, is recommended and emergency action plans should be implemented by businesses, schools, government agencies and other organizations.
Level 3-Warning
The highest level of local travel advisory, means that travel may be restricted to emergency management workers only. During a “warning” local travel advisory, individuals are directed to:
• Refrain from all travel
• Comply with necessary emergency measures
• Cooperate with public officials and disaster services forces in executing emergency operations plans
• Obey and comply with the lawful directions of properly identified officers
