Notes
The instrument that ended Minnesota's general business restrictions: capacity and gathering limits at 11:59 p.m. May 27, 2021; face coverings, worker protections, at-risk provisions and the all-business Plan at 11:59 p.m. June 30, 2021.
Retrieval noteCross-reference; not re-saved. This is the last business-directed command of the emergency and it ran to the last day of the second quarter of 2021: the compelled Plan, distancing and screening protocols the Service might call 'beyond the orders' were the order's own final condition of operating.
