Notes

The June 22, 2020 post records that GCRTA then 'recommends' masks and was distributing FEMA/DOT cloth masks; by July 21, 2020 the requirement was in force.

Retrieval note

Agency's own page (capture Aug. 17, 2020) rendered from the saved capture; the agency's mask-policy directive itself was not read.
