The Guard vehicles will take up positions at strategic intersections starting no later than 1 p.m. on Saturday or as soon as possible, the statement said. The guard members will not be armed and they will not be authorized to conduct "domestic surveillance activities," the statement said.
Personnel from other states will be commanded by the local guard leadership but will remain under the control of their governors. The mission is approved to continue until March 8 if necessary.
