If she hasn't declared a state of emergency, than what is this proclamation of state of emergency?

UPDATE ~ Louisiana "martial law" declarations clarified Bernard Hibbitts at 10:16 PM ET
[JURIST] The Louisiana Attorney General's office late Tuesday issued a number of clarifications concerning the "martial law" assertions made earlier in the day by local officials and law enforcement agents [JURIST report] in the wake of devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina. According to the AG's office, no such term exists in Louisiana state law.
The declaration of a state of emergency [text] issued by Gov. Kathleen Blanco on Friday and set to continue for at least a month does, however, give officials power to suspend civil liberties in the process of restoring order, and the Louisiana Homeland Security and Emergency Assistance and Disaster Act of 1993 gives the governor and heads of parishes power to commandeer property. The New Orleans Times-Picayune has more.
That proclamation is purely an in-state document. It gives state government the power to commandeer property, and it gives state "police" power to suspend some civil liberties.
It has zero effect as to the relationship between the State of Louisiana and the rest of the world.
