The Governor shall determine if and when it is for the best interests of the State to withdraw from the compact. In the event the Governor determines that the State should withdraw from the compact, the Governor has full power and authority to give the notice as required herein and to take any and all steps necessary and proper to effect the withdrawal of the State from the compact.
