General Requirements for Mask Wearing
~All individuals over the age of two years must wear masks in indoor common areas and shared workspaces and in outdoor areas where physical distancing cannot be reasonably maintained.
~This includes NPS partners, employees, contractors, volunteers, and visitors.
~Masks must cover the nose and mouth, and meet CDC and OSHA guidance.
~The NPS will not allow novelty/non-protective masks, masks with ventilation valves, face shields as a substitute for masks, or masks with messages or graphics that the NPS prohibits.
~Additionally, masks are not a substitute for physical distancing; even masked partner staff should maintain physical distancing from their colleagues and the public.
~Masks must be worn indoors in common areas and shared workspaces in federal buildings including
facilities used by partners (e.g., public areas such as lodge lobbies and hallways, ticket offices, visitor information desks, theaters, and retail stores) as well as employee areas such as shared offices, kitchens, maintenance buildings, and warehouses.
~There are exceptional circumstances under which a mask may not be required indoors, such as when an individual is alone in a room with floor to ceiling walls and a closed door, when in private areas of partner housing units, or when actively eating or drinking in a restaurant or employee dining room while maintaining physical distance in accordance with CDC guidelines.
~Masks are also required in outdoor areas on federal property where physical distancing cannot reasonably be maintained. For example, a mask may not be required for the entire hike on a trail or on a lodge walkway but must be used when passing others on the trail or the walkway.
~A mask must also be used at times when physical distancing cannot be maintained in a guided group.
~Partners providing services to visitors must require visitors to follow the requirements for mask wearing outlined above.
