1) MORE INTERPRETIVE GUIDANCE on @GovLarryHogan's Stay at Home order:
governor.maryland.gov/wp-content/upl…

2) EMPLOYER DOCUMENTATION. Employers who are permitted to remain open (to any degree) under
the Order may wish to provide a letter to employees who must commute to and from work. This will help employees establish their need to travel if challenged.

3) PERSONS PROVIDING IN-HOME CHILD, ELDER, AND SIMILAR CARE. Providing care for children, senior
citizens, or persons having special needs at the home of the children, senior citizens, or persons
having special needs, as the case may be, is considered an essential activity.

4) CURBSIDE PICKUP AT RESTAURANTS. Under this Order, Restaurants and Bars are not classified as
Non-Essential Businesses. Therefore, the prohibition on curbside pickup does not apply to Restaurants and Bars.

5) RECREATIONAL BOATING. Recreational boating is not considered an “outdoor exercise activity."

6) DIPLOMATIC EMPLOYEES. Foreign diplomatic facilities are considered government facilities that are part of the federal critical infrastructure
sectors. The Order does not prohibit staff from traveling between their Homes and those facilities,
or as needed for official duties.

7) CLERGY. Clergy and other staff of religious facilities are permitted to continue conducting minimal operations provided that they comply with all applicable guidance from the CDC and MDH regarding social distancing. This includes facilitating remote worship.

8a) Restrictions on travel DO NOT include persons who regularly commute into Maryland from an adjacent state or the District of Columbia, or vice-versa, unless such persons should otherwise self-quarantine under
applicable CDC or MDH guidance...

8b) ...or persons transiting through Maryland who have only minimal contact with Maryland, i.e., only
stopping for fuel, food, or other necessary supplies, not making contact with anyone for more
than three minutes at a distance of less than six feet.
