In the case of a declared State of Local Emergency or suspension of normal County operations, certain employees may be identified to perform emergency and non-emergency support functions. Compensation for work performed during the designated time period is as follows:

• Non-exempt (hourly, overtime eligible) employees shall be paid at a rate of two times (2x) base straight pay for all hours worked during the declared emergency conditions and for all hours worked outside their normal work hours until normal County operations are re-established or five (5) days, whichever is less, and after such time the employee's pay will revert to regular pay.
  
  
• Exempt employees, excluding the County Manager, Deputy County Manager, Assistant County Manager and Department and Office Directors, shall be paid additional hourly pay equal to their hourly salary rate for all hours worked during the declared emergency conditions and for all hours worked outside their normal work hours until normal County operations are re-established or five (5) days, whichever is less, and after such time the employee's pay will revert to regular pay.
