RE: Executive Order 77 and Expansion of Transportation Waivers
______________________________________________________________________________
Governor Cooper has issued Executive Order 77. The transportation waivers in Executive Order 75 only applied to 66 counties. Executive Order 77 applies the transportation waivers to all 100 counties to enable and support response and recovery efforts.

If anyone is mistakenly stopped while trying to transport livestock, poultry, crops or feed, they should share the executive orders with law enforcement. Specifically, Section 9 of Executive Order No. 75 states “Upon request by law enforcement officers, exempted vehicles must produce documentation sufficient to establish their loads are being used for … carrying feed for livestock and poultry, or transporting livestock and poultry, or crops ready to be harvested in the State of North Carolina.”
