We want to update you on the ever-changing circumstances surrounding COVID-19.
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine has issued a "stay at home" order (or a shelter in place) across our state which went into effect Monday, March 23 at 11:59 pm, until April 6 when it will be reassessed.
During this time, essential businesses are permitted to stay open. Darrah Electric Company is an essential supplier and critical manufacturer as defined by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security CISA memo dated March 19, 2020.
As a business that supports the manufacturing of critical infrastructure; i.e., transportation systems, control systems, power supplies, information technology, communications, financial sectors, chemical production, defense industrial base, and energy in the US, our products support the safe and efficient flow of goods and services essential to slow down the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, we remain open for business.
The Ohio "stay at home" order declares the following as essential:
Manufacture, distribution, and supply chain for critical products and industries. Manufacturing companies, distributors, and supply chain companies producing and supplying essential products and services in and for industries such as pharmaceutical, technology, biotechnology, healthcare, chemicals and sanitization, waste pickup and disposal, agriculture, food and beverage, transportation, energy, steel and steel products, petroleum and fuel, mining, construction, national defense, communications, as well as products used by other Essential Businesses and Operations.
