Missouri troops no longer needed for Hurricane Milton response

The State of Missouri was notified by the State of Florida that both Missouri National Guard (MONG) and Department of Public Safety (DPS) resources previously offered for Hurricane Milton response efforts are no longer required. Yesterday, Governor Mike Parson announced that the MONG and DPS were preparing to deploy resources to assist the State of Florida. In light of Hurricane Milton being less impactful than previously expected, the State of Florida has canceled its Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC) request that Missouri was responding to.
