While in our descent the Captain noticed the cabin altitude in the amber range. We ran the AOM procedure for 'Cabin Altitude in the amber range.' The cabin altitude kept climbing and so we put our masks on and performed the emergency procedure checklist for Rapid Depressurization followed by the Emergency Descent procedure. We declared an emergency at this time. The cabin altitude was about 9;500 FT. We continued on to destination without incident.
[Narrative #2 contained no additional information.]
When they lost control of their pressurization at FL330; an EMB-145 flight crew declared an emergency; began an emergency descent and performed appropriate procedures and checklists as they descended to a safe altitude and then continued to their destination.
