You're confusing reality with bureaucracy. Sure, in reality, it's an emergency. But until a government official declares it, well, officially, then no government dollars can flow. Certain contracting rules are also lifted in a state of emergency.
You can't just let random people call something an emergency. Somebody has to be in charge (and thus re-electable).
I agree with previous commment. "Declaring a State of Emergency" is a legal process that has rules associated with it. A governmental body must do so publicly even if the general public is without power, under water, etc.
