In the event of an issuance of a hurricane or tropical storm warning by the National Hurricane Center of the National Weather Service in any part of the state, or as authorized by the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection, any property owner or municipality may, in the twenty-four hours prior to the predicted commencement of the hurricane or tropical storm, fortify property above the coastal jurisdiction line with temporary structures, including sand bags, blocks and other suitable materials. Any such structures shall be removed not later than forty-eight hours after a hurricane or tropical storm warning is lifted unless such deadline is extended by said commissioner.
