3. Exceptions. The department shall assure that a person shall not be required to move from a dwelling unless the person has had a reasonable opportunity to relocate to a comparable replacement dwelling, except in the case of:

B. A national emergency declared by the President of the United States; or [1989, c. 208, §§16, 21 (NEW).]
