that an emergency may develop, which affects or may affect one or more or all
of a banks offices, they shall have the authority in the reasonable and proper
exercise of their discretion not to open any one or more or all of such offices
during the continuation of such emergency, even if the Commissioner has not
issued and does not issue a proclamation of emergency.

consecutive hours, excluding other legal holidays, without requesting the approval
of the Commissioner.
