Operative words
SECTION 2: The term 'indoor public setting' means any indoor area where people who are not members of the same household may be present. The term includes office buildings, breakrooms, hallways, cafeterias, meeting rooms, and other areas where people may interact, even though the public at large does not have access to the area. SECTION 3:... Each Tuesday, the State will review the transmission level for each county based on data from the CDC's COVID Data Tracker. If the CDC data show that a county's transmission level has changed from its initial or prior level, and the county has remained within the new level for two consecutive weeks, the State will update the County Level... the corresponding requirements for face coverings... shall take effect at 12:01 a.m. on the Friday of that week.... SECTION 5:... In counties with a population of 100,000 or greater, all kindergarten through 12th grade students (regardless of whether they would be exempt from the face covering requirement based on their age) must wear face coverings while inside school buildings... Face coverings are required indoors regardless of vaccination status.... In all school settings: 1. All school staff must wear face coverings while inside school buildings, regardless of vaccination status.... SECTION 6: All county school districts, charter schools, and private schools, regardless of county transmission level, shall implement a regular COVID-19 testing program for students and staff or volunteers... who are not fully vaccinated and who are involved in activities that involve travelling to other schools or venues outside of the county... Testing must occur at least once per week. If a student, staff member, or volunteer tests positive for COVID-19, current CDC recommendations for isolation and quarantine must be followed.
Enforcement
Nevada Department of Education; local health authorities (outbreak masking mandatory); NV OSHA for indoor public settings
Notes
Clark and Washoe Counties were the counties of 100,000 or more; the Governor's same-day companion order exempted smaller counties' students but not staff (Ballotpedia, Aug. 5, 2021, secondary). DHHS 'Directive 048 Full Guidance' (Ex. NV-069) supplies the school outbreak and quarantine rules.
