NORTH CAROLINA (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — Governor Stein announced Tuesday an executive order temporarily waiving federal limits on the amount of time drivers transporting propane and other heating fuels can be on the road.
This will ensure heating materials get to people in need quickly, Stein’s Office announced.
“As we face plummeting temperatures, we must ensure that North Carolinians who have been impacted by winter weather and Hurricane Helene maintain an adequate supply of heating fuels,” Governor Stein said in a released statement Tuesday. “We’ll continue to use every tool at our disposal to keep people safe and help them recover from Hurricane Helene.”
