RE: Critical Infrastructure

Please be advised that the Oklahoma Insurance Department does not have the authority to determine “essential” or “critical” status of the bail industry. The federal government and the Oklahoma Governor have issued guidance regarding critical infrastructure. The OID recommends the bail associations request guidance from the Governor, or the Governor’s designated agency/official, in determining whether the bail industry, in whole or in part, is critical infrastructure.

The federal guidance may be found here: https://www.cisa.gov/publication/guidance-essential-critical-infrastructure-workforce
