1. About this report

Prepared by The COVID Project, Sept. 30, 2026. Selection: State Nevada and metropolitan area Las Vegas and Reno. Quarters: second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020), third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020), fourth quarter of 2020 (Oct. 1, 2020 to Dec. 31, 2020), first quarter of 2021 (Jan. 1, 2021 to Mar. 31, 2021), second quarter of 2021 (Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021) and third quarter of 2021 (July 1, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021). Options: the federal layer, agencies and boards, standing duties, group meetings and trade shows and the Service's fourteen sentences answered.

This report is a record of the governmental orders and related instruments that The COVID Project has retrieved, verified and indexed for the State, metropolitan area, industry and calendar quarters selected. Each instrument appears with its issuer, its number and title, its dates, the quarters in which it was in force, the functions of a business it reached, its operative words, its enforcement provision, a citation and an exhibit identifier. Every exhibit identifier resolves to the instrument's record at covidproject.com/library, and to the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit.

The report is assembled from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings, and it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It lists the instruments The COVID Project has verified and no others, so every count in it is a floor. It is not a filing, and it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit.

The report reproduces at covidproject.com/report?state=NV&metro=LAS&quarters=2020Q2,2020Q3,2020Q4,2021Q1,2021Q2,2021Q3&federal=1&agencies=1&duties=1&meetings=1&answers=1. Every exhibit identifier in it resolves at covidproject.com/library/ followed by the identifier, and the exhibit file, where held, at covidproject.com/exhibit/ followed by the identifier.

Disclaimer

The COVID Project is a free public reference. This report is generated from public governmental instruments, published organizer notices, published legal authorities and public court filings that The COVID Project has retrieved and indexed; it reports what those documents say and when they were in force. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it does not create any professional relationship, it does not determine any person's eligibility for the Employee Retention Credit or the amount of any credit, and it is not a count of every order that existed. The COVID Project sells nothing and represents no one. Errors in any record can be reported through covidproject.com/contact with the exhibit identifier, and corrections are recorded with their dates.

2. Summary of findings

For each quarter selected, this section states what was in force for this selection on the quarter's first and last days, in the words of the Library's own quarter-by-quarter record for the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators and the federal layer. Exhibit identifiers in parentheses name the instruments. The table that follows counts the instruments listed in section 5 by layer and quarter.

The federal layer of this report is the Library's two federal files: FED-A, the health, safety and transport layer, and FED-B, the commerce, travel, workplace and finance layer, including the orders of the federal courts those files hold. The ecosystem clusters and the federal agency clusters are listed in the Library's federal layer at covidproject.com/federal and are not part of this report's federal layer; a quarter page counts every federal-level instrument of the quarter across those clusters as well, so its figure is the larger of the two.

3. The statute and the test

An employer is an eligible employer for a calendar quarter under the governmental-orders test if

the operation of the trade or business described in clause (i) is fully or partially suspended during the calendar quarter due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes) due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
CARES Act § 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 348; I.R.C. § 3134(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), 135 Stat. 4, 177

Congress enacted those words four times and never changed them. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of March 27, 2020 enacted the Suspension Clause at section 2301(c)(2)(A)(ii)(I), Pub. L. 116-136, 134 Stat. 281, 347-48, for wages paid after March 12, 2020 and before January 1, 2021 (§ 2301(m), 134 Stat. 351) (Ex. LAW-001). The Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020, Pub. L. 116-260, div. EE, §§ 206-207, 134 Stat. 1182, 3059-65 (Dec. 27, 2020), extended the credit to wages paid before July 1, 2021 and raised its rate to 70 percent; neither section touched the clause (Ex. LAW-002).

The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Pub. L. 117-2, § 9651, 135 Stat. 4, 176 (Mar. 11, 2021), added section 3134 to the Internal Revenue Code, whose heading repeats the CARES Act title and whose Suspension Clause reappears word for word at 135 Stat. 177, for wages paid after June 30, 2021 (§ 3134(n), 135 Stat. 182) (Ex. LAW-003). The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Pub. L. 117-58, § 80604, 135 Stat. 429, 1341 (Nov. 15, 2021), ended the credit for calendar quarters beginning after September 30, 2021, and left the third quarter of 2021 in place (Ex. LAW-004).

The clause has seven elements, taken in the statute's order: orders; from an appropriate governmental authority; limiting commerce, travel, or group meetings (for commercial, social, religious, or other purposes); due to COVID-19; the operation of the trade or business fully or partially suspended; during the calendar quarter; and due to those orders. The words "essential," "comparable operations," "telework," "customers," "voluntary," "more than nominal," "10 percent," "directed at," "jurisdiction over the employer," "proximate," "independent" and "sufficient" appear in none of the four enactments. The credit runs by calendar quarter; the six quarters the clause governs are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021.

The partial-suspension test and how this report applies it

In this report the Internal Revenue Service is the "Service," the Government as a litigant is the "United States," Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, is the "Notice," and the statutory text above is the "Suspension Clause." Tri-State is Tri-State Memorial Hospital v. United States, No. 2:25-cv-0181-TOR, ECF No. 38 (E.D. Wash. May 28, 2026), the one federal decision construing the clause's words. Doc. 44 is the United States' opposition and cross-motion for summary judgment in Stenson Tamaddon, LLC v. IRS, No. 2:24-cv-01123-SPL (D. Ariz. Jan. 6, 2025), ECF No. 44; Doc. 49 is the summary-judgment order in that case of June 20, 2025; and the Br. for Appellees is the United States' brief in the appeal, No. 25-4217 (9th Cir. Jan. 30, 2026).

The statute controls, and the Notice does not. The United States has told two federal courts so: the Notice "is merely guidance" and "lacks the force of law" (Doc. 44 at 19); "the United States is not arguing that the IRS interpretation has the force of law or is entitled to deference" (Doc. 44 at 31 & n.8); "[w]hether Notice 2021-20 exists or not, the statute will control whether a refund is warranted" (Doc. 44 at 24). The court held that "the Notice carries no force of law and is entitled to no deference" (Doc. 49 at 27) and that the ten percent figure "is not an exclusionary cut-off point, but rather a safe harbor" (Doc. 49 at 26). In the Ninth Circuit the United States called the Notice "nonbinding guidance," its ten percent provision "a quintessential safe harbor," and wrote that "[t]here is no question of deference here" (Br. for Appellees at 26, 37-38, 58).

"Fully or partially suspended" means what the words say. On definitions both parties agreed, Tri-State held: "a 'partial suspension' is a temporary delay, interruption, or termination of a portion an employer's business. The language is plain" (Tri-State at 8-9). The court refused to read "more than nominal" as "significant": "the plain language and ordinary meaning of partial and nominal do not suggest either of those interpretations" (Tri-State at 10-11). The Notice's ten percent rules are "only administrative guidance"; "the IRS Notice provides a method for the test to be met not as a requirement to meet the test" (Tri-State at 15-16). "Due to" means "because of," which "[b]oth Plaintiff and Defendant agree" (Tri-State at 17), and "the Court recognizes that 'due to' requires 'but-for' causation" (Tri-State at 19). The argument that the virus rather than the order caused the changes fails: "[s]ick patients and employees alone did not require additional protocols" (Tri-State at 20-21).

This report applies the test in five steps, with the instruments the Library holds for your selection and no others. Step one, the order: the issuer, the instrument by number and title, its dates and its exhibit; the Service's own Q&A-10 treats "orders, proclamations, or decrees" as orders "without regard to the level of enforcement" (Notice 2021-20, Q&A-10, at 927-28). Step two, the function it reached: the part of the business the order governed, whether the customer-facing floor, the back of house, the office, the workforce, the supply chain or the customer base. Step three, the change it compelled: the operative words, quoted from the instrument, and the sanction behind them. Step four, the quarter: the days on which the instrument was in force, tested against its dates. Step five, the statute's answer: a function is a portion of the operation; a compelled change is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; but for the order no law required it; and on the definitions the United States agreed to, the operation was partially suspended during the quarter due to the order.

The statute does not ask whether the business was "essential" or stayed open: the Notice's own Q&A-17, Example 4, calls an open hospital under an elective-procedure order partially suspended (Q&A-17, at 930). It does not ask whether the business could telework: Q&A-15 finds a partial suspension wherever a workplace closure "causes the employer to suspend business operations for certain purposes, but not others" (Q&A-15, at 929). It does not ask whose customers were under orders: "a business may be suspended 'due to' a government order addressing a third party" (Br. for Appellees at 41). It does not ask whether a compelled measure was "voluntary": Q&A-14 reaches only a suspension "not due to a governmental order" (Q&A-14, at 929). And it does not ask for a percentage: "The 10 percent is not determinative ... Properly understood, it isn't an eligibility requirement" (Doc. 44 at 14). The Service's letters ask each of those questions. The statute asks one, and this report answers it, instrument by instrument.

How this report was assembled

The report is drawn from The COVID Project's Orders Library, which indexes the governmental orders that limited commerce, travel and group meetings in the United States from March 2020 through September 30, 2021. The Library is organized in layers, and the report walks them in order for your selection: the federal layer (proclamations, executive orders, agency orders and rules, and the federal courts' general orders); your State, from its first declaration to the instrument that ended its general restrictions; your metropolitan area's health officers, mayors and courts; the sector regulators of your industry (licensing boards, health departments, alcohol and gaming regulators, labor agencies and federal program rules); the clusters of authorities that are easy to overlook (ports, aviation, courts, motor-vehicle offices, tribal and territorial governments); the standing duties of your State and of the United States (communicable-disease, workplace-safety and liability-shield statutes); and the organizers' notices of the trade shows, conventions, seasons and tournaments your industry lost.

Every record carries one of two grades, and the report shows only these two. Primary source read means the compiler read the issuing authority's own text: the order as published, the register page, the codified rule, the court's docket entry. Confirmed from a secondary source means the instrument's existence, number, date and substance were established from an identifiable secondary source and the primary text was not read. Records graded unverified or not retrieved never appear. Every exhibit was retrieved from the issuing authority's site or from the Internet Archive's capture of it, kept only if its text contained a distinctive phrase of the instrument, hashed at retrieval and re-checked by a second reviewer.

Every instrument has one exhibit identifier, used everywhere on the site and in this report. A State instrument carries its two-letter State code and a serial number (Ex. TX-004 is Texas Executive Order GA-09 of March 22, 2020); a metropolitan instrument carries MET and the metro code; a federal instrument carries FED; a sector regulator's instrument carries SEC and the industry number, and an organizer's notice adds GM; an overlooked authority carries AGY and its cluster; a standing duty carries DUT and the State code, or DUT-FED (Ex. DUT-FED-001 is the general duty clause of the Occupational Safety and Health Act); a legal authority carries LAW.

The dates decide the quarters. An instrument is in force in a quarter only if its effective date fell on or before the quarter's last day and its end date, if any, fell on or after the quarter's first day. The six quarters are the second, third and fourth quarters of 2020 and the first, second and third quarters of 2021. Because the CARES Act applies to wages paid after March 12, 2020, and the Service's Form 941-X instructions place the credit for wages paid March 13 through March 31, 2020 on the second-quarter return, the orders of March 13 through 31, 2020, the first stay-at-home and closure orders in the country, appear in the record of the second quarter of 2020.

4. The orders, quarter by quarter

For each quarter selected, the instruments in force appear by layer: the federal layer (the Library's FED-A and FED-B files, including the federal court orders they hold), the State, the metropolitan area, the industry's regulators, and the agencies, boards and authorities whose orders resolve to the State. Within a layer the instruments that carry the industry's key limitation types come first, then the rest in date order. An instrument in force across several quarters is described in full where it first appears and listed in compact form in each later quarter. Every item carries its citation and its exhibit identifier.

Maximum use of all telehealth modalities is strongly encouraged.

Emergency regulation to amend NAC 687B. As COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the world, it is essential that the Nevada community take preventive measures to stop the spread of the virus in Nevada. The Division of Insurance ('Division') has determined that testing for COVID-19 may create a situation where Nevadans put off seeking medical services... Additionally, the Division believes having health insurers share useful information about benefits and options for medical services would help consumers and providers. Finally, the Division seeks to ensure Nevadans are able to continue getting their needed prescriptions at their normal costs despite disruptions to supplies in prescriptions.

The Nevada COVID-19 Mitigation and Management Task Force approved Washoe County's action plan to limit the size of public gatherings from 250 to 50, or 50 percent occupancy (whichever is fewer), starting at 11:59 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 5. The public gathering limit of 50 will be applied to all events, celebration and ceremonies - both indoors and outdoors. For private gatherings, Governor Sisolak's Directive states that private gatherings be limited to 10 people or fewer indoors and 25 or fewer outdoors. That remains unchanged. In addition, the Task Force directed a report back at the next meeting regarding efforts to address increased reporting on enforcement, increased testing, quicker turnaround times for COVID-19 results and contact tracing.... The Health District may consider allowing outdoor events with fixed seating with more than 50 people on a case-by-case basis.

End of general restrictions, State of Nevada: Emergency Directive 044 (Apr. 19, 2021) (Ex. NV-038), which terminated statewide social distancing at 11:59 p.m. on April 30, 2021 and delegated capacity and gathering management to the counties on May 1, 2021, with State review of large-gathering plans ending for events on or after June 1, 2021; the statewide end of capacity limits is recorded in Gaming Control Board Notice 2021-48 (May 26, 2021) (Ex. NV-074): 'Effective 12:00am on Tuesday, June 1, 2021, the Board rescinds all applicable COVID-19 mitigation protocols... As of June 1, 2021, none of Nevada's counties will retain social distancing or occupancy limitations that would apply to a gaming licensee.' (2021-06-01). What remained: The March 12, 2020 Declaration of Emergency (to May 20, 2022); the Baseline Statewide Mitigation Measures named in Directive 044 s. 7: the face-covering requirement of Directives 024 and 045 (business duty to ensure patrons wear face coverings, Directive 045 s. 5), the Open Meeting Law provisions of Directive 006, gaming mitigation measures, and the Crisis Standards of Care and licensing provisions of Directive 011 (amended July 20, 2021 by Directive 046); SB 4 and NAC ch. 447E public-accommodation cleaning, distancing, testing and response-plan requirements in Clark and Washoe Counties; county Local Mitigation and Enforcement Plans under Directives 041 and 044; NV OSHA enforcement of the remaining Directives and, from July 1, 2021, of the COVID-19 Healthcare ETS; the residential eviction moratorium of Directives 036 and 043 through May 31, 2021. From July 30, 2021 Directive 047 reinstated universal indoor masking in substantial- and high-transmission counties; from August 4, 2021 Directive 048 imposed school masking and testing; from August 16 and September 2, 2021 Directives 049 and 050 conditioned mask-free large events and conventions on proof of vaccination; on August 20 and September 10, 2021 the State Board of Health adopted vaccination mandates for NSHE students and State health-care and detention employees.

Preemption of local orders, State of Nevada: Nevada never preempted local COVID-19 orders; it set a floor and invited counties and cities to go further. Directive 018 s. 24 (May 7, 2020) delegated 'to each county of this state... and local municipalities, the authority to adopt additional protective measures intended to combat the spread of COVID-19, including without limitation, stay at home and face covering orders, so long as those measures are at least as restrictive as those imposed by all Directives,' and provided that such measures 'may be implemented without additional approval by the State'; Directive 021 s. 38 and Directive 023 s. 5 repeated the delegation and extended it to State agencies. Directives 021 s. 2, 024 s. 2, 027 s. 2, 029 s. 2 and 030 s. 2 each provide that county restrictions 'may exceed the standards imposed by Declaration of Emergency Directives... but in no case shall county-guidelines be more permissive than the provisions of this Directive.' Directive 030 (Aug. 14, 2020) empowered the Mitigation and Management Task Force to impose county-specific restrictions on elevated-transmission counties. From May 1, 2021 Directives 041 and 044 transferred management of capacity, gathering and sector measures to counties under approved Local Mitigation and Enforcement Plans, while reserving Baseline Statewide Mitigation Measures to the State: Directive 044 s. 11 provides that 'if any provision of a Local Plan adopted by a county... conflicts with any Baseline Statewide Mitigation Measures, including but not limited to the face covering requirement in Directive 024, such provision is void,' and Directive 045 s. 2 repeats that county guidelines may be more restrictive but 'in no case... more permissive.' Directive 052 s. 6 (Feb. 10, 2022) preserved the power of any local health authority, local government, school or employer to require face coverings. Clark County's July 20, 2021 employee-mask directive (metro LAS) sat on this floor until Directive 047 superseded it on July 30, 2021.

During today's commission meeting, a subsequent directive, Directive 044, was released by the governor's office that outlined the steps toward local authority and what that authority will cover. One area it will not cover is the statewide mask mandate, which will remain in effect indefinitely. Directive 044 removes statewide social distancing minimums on May 1, and removes business capacity limits on June 1. The plan approved by Commissioner today, with guidelines from Directive 044 to be added, recommends that businesses follow CDC guidelines for social distancing, allowing business owners to set their own limits. Other highlights include that groups of 10 will be allowed in public places.... Fifty percent vaccination rate is a threshold for removing restrictions in the proposed plans.

On May 1, the State of Nevada transferred authority over COVID mitigation to county jurisdictions that had met certain approval requirements. Washoe County's latest iteration of the plan was not endorsed previously by the City of Reno, Washoe County School District, or Washoe County Health District, as directed by the governor, and Washoe County was therefore not authorized to assume authority on May 1....

Washoe County assumed local authority over COVID-19 mitigation measures from the State of Nevada earlier this month. The authority allows them to amend the plan as needed before Gov. Sisolak lifts all emergency directives on June 1, with the exception of the statewide mask mandate.

This will bring these businesses in line with other business types in the county, effective at 11:59 p.m. today.

End of general restrictions, Las Vegas and Reno: Clark County Board of County Commissioners, revision of the Local COVID-19 Regional Mitigation and Enforcement Plan, item 62 of May 18, 2021 (MET-LAS-005): 'Effective June 1, 2021 Clark County will delete in its entirety the plan set and executed on May 1, 2021 and return to pre-pandemic guidelines. This means that restrictions involving capacity limits, large gatherings, dancing, etc. will no longer be in effect.' Washoe County: the local-authority plan measures ran May 3-31, 2021 and provided 'No social distance requirements' from June 1, 2021 (MET-LAS-035). (2021-06-01). What remained: The statewide mask requirement (Directive 024 as modified for vaccinated persons in May 2021, then Directive 047 from July 30, 2021 in Clark and Washoe Counties); the Clark County emergency declaration of March 15, 2020 (ended 2022; MET-LAS-002); the Eighth Judicial District Court's AO 21-04 (June 4, 2021) and AO 21-05 (July 19, 2021), with masks in court facilities, alternative-means appearances preferred, jury operations under the COVID-19 Jury Trial Plan and the NRCP 41(e) stay through July 1, 2021; Clark County's July 20, 2021 employee mask measure (July 22 through at least August 17, 2021); the State's school directives; the federal CDC conveyance mask order on RTC transit and at Harry Reid (McCarran) and Reno-Tahoe airports (FED-A).

Preemption of local orders, Las Vegas and Reno: Nevada did not bar local COVID-19 orders at any time in the period. The State framework absorbed them: the Governor's Directive 003 (March 20, 2020) superseded Reno's March 16, 2020 closure order by imposing a stricter statewide closure (Reno's own staff report records that the Governor 'preempted this declaration'; MET-LAS-025); the COVID-19 Mitigation and Management Task Force framework of August-November 2020 required counties flagged for elevated transmission to submit action plans, which is how Washoe County's 50-person gathering cap of November 5, 2020 was approved (MET-LAS-033); Directive 044 (April 20-21, 2021) delegated mitigation and enforcement authority to counties with approved Local Mitigation and Enforcement Plans from May 1, 2021, while the State retained the statewide mask requirement, school requirements and Gaming Control Board regulation (MET-LAS-003, -034); and the July 19, 2021 Clark County staff report records that 'Pursuant to the Governor's directives, enforcement measures for the pandemic now rest with County officials' (MET-LAS-007).

5. Standing duties in Nevada

Nevada's compulsion ran on four standing statutory tracks that predate COVID-19 and outlasted every Directive. First, the communicable-disease statute. NRS 441A.160 commands the health authority to 'immediately investigate' any communicable disease that poses a risk to the public and to 'take such measures for the prevention, suppression and control of the disease as are required by the regulations of the Board or a district board of health,' and it authorizes written orders of isolation, quarantine or treatment of 'any person or group of persons' that 'may direct the person or group of persons to take other actions that the health authority has determined are necessary to prevent the spread of the communicable disease' (Ex. DUT-NV-001). The State Board of Health's regulations bind every 'case, suspected case, carrier, contact or other person' to 'promptly cooperate' in 'the carrying out of measures for the prevention, suppression and control of a communicable disease, including procedures of exclusion, isolation and quarantine' (NAC 441A.280, Ex. DUT-NV-008); a person with a communicable disease in an infectious state 'shall not... engage in any occupation in which there is a high probability that the disease will be transmitted' (NRS 441A.180); refusal to comply with any Board regulation or any provision of the chapter is enjoinable on the complaint of the health authority (NRS 441A.900), and 'every person who violates any provision of this chapter is guilty of a misdemeanor' (NRS 441A.910), punishable by six months and $1,000 (NRS 193.150, Ex. DUT-NV-005). NRS chapter 439 makes the State Board of Health 'supreme in all nonadministrative health matters' (NRS 439.150), gives its regulations 'the effect of law' (NRS 439.200(2)), empowers county and district boards to isolate, quarantine, abate nuisances and regulate 'sanitation and sanitary practices' with regulations that 'take effect immediately' on State approval (NRS 439.360, 439.366), and commands that 'all persons in charge of public buildings and institutions, and all other public officers and employees shall respect and enforce this chapter... and all lawful rules, orders and regulations adopted in pursuance thereof' (NRS 439.560, Ex. DUT-NV-002), with injunctions (NRS 439.565) and district-attorney prosecution (NRS 439.570). Second, the emergency-management statute. NRS 414.060(3)(a) authorizes the Governor to 'make, amend and rescind the necessary orders and regulations'; NRS 414.070 adds, for the duration of a declared emergency, the power 'to enforce all laws and regulations relating to emergency management' and 'to perform and exercise such other functions, powers and duties as are necessary to promote and secure the safety and protection of the civilian population'; and NRS 414.160 commands every emergency-management organization to 'execute and enforce such orders and regulations as may be made by the Governor' (Ex. DUT-NV-003). Chapter 414 carries no free-standing criminal penalty; the penalty layer the Directives themselves recited was NRS 199.280 (willfully resisting, delaying or obstructing a public officer 'in discharging or attempting to discharge any legal duty of his or her office' is a misdemeanor, Ex. DUT-NV-011) and NRS 202.450 (every act or omission that 'annoys, injures or endangers the safety, health, comfort or repose of any considerable number of persons' is a public nuisance, maintained on pain of misdemeanor under NRS 202.470, Ex. DUT-NV-006), alongside license suspension and revocation by every State and local licensing authority (Directive 018 s. 25; Directive 021 s. 39; Directive 024 s. 10; Directive 029 s. 6, Exs. NV-016, NV-017, NV-019, NV-024), the Secretary of State's power to suspend a State business license for failure to comply with 'controlling health standards' (SB 4 s. 30, Ex. NV-054), Clark County Code 3.04.065 (up to $1,000 per violation per day or a criminal misdemeanor, Ex. MET-LAS-026) and NRS 202.595 (a gross misdemeanor, or a category C felony where substantial bodily harm or death results, for any act or neglect of a legal duty 'in willful or wanton disregard of the safety of persons or property'). Third, the workplace-safety duty. Nevada is an approved State plan, and NRS 618.375 commands that 'every employer shall' furnish employment and a place of employment 'free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm,' 'adopt and use such practices, means, methods, operations and processes as are reasonably adequate to render such employment and places of employment safe and comply with all orders issued by the Division,' and 'do every other thing reasonably necessary to protect the lives, safety and health of employees' (Ex. DUT-NV-004); NRS 618.385 forbids an employer to 'require, permit or suffer any employee to go or be in any employment or place of employment which is not safe and healthful'; NRS 618.395 extends the prohibition to every 'owner or lessee of any real property'; NRS 618.545(1) lets the Administrator order a business to cease operations where imminent danger exists, the very power Nevada OSHA announced it would use against noncompliant businesses (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-032); NRS 618.625 to 618.645 assess administrative fines up to the federal 29 U.S.C. 666 amounts; and NAC 618.540(1)(e) requires every written safety program to contain 'a method for ensuring that employees comply with the safety rules and work practices' (Ex. DUT-NV-009). The Directives filled that standing vessel with COVID content: Directive 018 s. 9 ('All employers must take proactive measures to ensure compliance with the social distancing and sanitation guidelines. All employers shall require employees who interact with the public to wear face coverings... and shall abide by all other guidelines promulgated by' NV OSHA) and s. 10 ('All businesses must adopt measures that meet or exceed the standards promulgated by NV OSHA... NV OSHA shall enforce all violations of its guidance, protocols, and regulations'), Directive 021 s. 3 ('in no case shall business practices be more permissive than the provisions of this Directive or those imposed by NV OSHA and the LEAP') and s. 12, Directive 024 ss. 6 and 8, Directive 044 s. 6 and Directive 045 s. 4 as amended by Directive 047 s. 2 (Exs. NV-016, NV-017, NV-019, NV-038, NV-039, NV-041); NV OSHA's guidance marked each measure 'Required' with a reference to the Directive section or the federal standard that commanded it (Exs. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-028, -030, -031, -037, -040; NV-060). Fourth, the liability shield. SB 4 of the 32nd Special Session (Aug. 11, 2020) grants immunity from COVID-19 exposure suits only to an entity 'in substantial compliance with controlling health standards,' defined as any federal, State or local law, regulation, ordinance or 'written order or other document published by a federal, state or local government or regulatory body' that 'prescribed the manner in which an entity must operate,' and it provides that an entity 'not in substantial compliance' faces 'any claim recognized at common law or by statute' (SB 4 s. 29, Ex. NV-054): the Legislature made compliance with the health protocols the standard of care from August 11, 2020 through the third quarter of 2021 and beyond, and SB 4 ss. 11 to 15 and NAC ch. 447E imposed cleaning, distancing, screening and response-plan duties in terms ('must') on every public accommodation facility in Clark and Washoe Counties (Ex. NV-053). The sanitary layer completed the compulsion: NRS chapter 446 as in force in 2021 let the health authority order 'the immediate closure of the food establishment' and exclude food handlers on suspicion of disease transmission (NRS 446.935), suspend a permit 'without warning, notice or hearing' for a condition constituting 'a substantial hazard to the public health' (NRS 446.880(3)), and made every violation a misdemeanor with each day a separate violation (NRS 446.945, Ex.

DUT-NV-007). Every measure a Nevada employer took in the six quarters (distancing the floor, screening, sanitizing, masking, excluding the sick, limiting occupancy, writing the plan) was conduct these instruments commanded; the only voluntary act available to a Nevada employer was to exceed the floor, which Directive 021 s. 3 expressly invited and SB 4 s. 29 rewarded.

The phase question

Whether the additional measures Nevada employers took beyond the four corners of the emergency directives were voluntary within Notice 2021-20 Q&A-14, or were the discharge of standing duties imposed by Nevada law.

A.3. When may an ADA-covered employer take the body temperature of employees during the COVID-19 pandemic? Generally, measuring an employee's body temperature is a medical examination. Because the CDC and state/local health authorities have acknowledged community spread of COVID-19 and issued attendant precautions, employers may measure employees' body temperature.... an individual with the virus will pose a direct threat to the health of others. Therefore an employer may choose to administer COVID-19 testing to employees before initially permitting them to enter the workplace... An employer may require employees to wear protective gear (for example, masks and gloves) and observe infection control practices (for example, regular hand washing and social distancing protocols).

Applying this standard to the current circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, employers may take screening steps to determine if employees entering the workplace have COVID-19 because an individual with the virus will pose a direct threat to the health of others. Therefore an employer may choose to administer COVID-19 testing to employees before initially permitting them to enter the workplace and/or periodically to determine if their presence in the workplace poses a direct threat to others.... An employer may exclude those with COVID-19, or symptoms associated with COVID-19, from the workplace because, as EEOC has stated, their presence would pose a direct threat to the health or safety of others.

6. Partial suspension, element by element, for this business

This section applies the five-step test of section 3 to a business in Nevada with the instruments this report found for the quarters selected and no others: the order; the function of the business it reached; the change it compelled, in its own words; the days of the quarter on which it was in force; and the statute's answer. Where the Library holds only federal-layer and standing-duty instruments for a quarter, the section says so and applies the test to those instruments.

Second quarter of 2020 (Apr. 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020; orders from Mar. 13, 2020)

Step one, the orders. In the second quarter of 2020 the Library holds 278 instruments in force for this selection: 33 instruments from the State of Nevada (Governor Steve Sisolak, Declaration of Emergency Directive 010 - Stay at Home Order (Mar. 31, 2020) (Ex. NV-012); Governor Steve Sisolak, Declaration of Emergency Directive 016 (Apr. 29, 2020) (Ex. NV-015); Governor Steve Sisolak, Declaration of Emergency Directive 018 (Phase One Reopening Plan), May 7, 2020, ss. 4, 9, 10, 11, 13, 25 (Ex. NV-016); and 30 more), 18 instruments from Las Vegas and Reno (Clark County Board of County Commissioners (regular meeting Apr. 21, 2020, item 57; Legistar matter HIST-1378115), Clark County emergency ordinance adding Clark County Code 3.04.065 (Violation of Declaration of Emergency), adopted Apr. 21, 2020 (Ex. MET-LAS-026); Mayor Hillary Schieve (order under RMC 8.34.060 and the Mar. 13, 2020 emergency declaration), Mayor's order of Mar. 16, 2020 limiting or prohibiting operations of dine-in restaurant service, bars and nightclubs, and gymnasiums open to the general public in Reno (Ex. MET-LAS-023); Chief Judge Linda Marie Bell, Eighth Judicial District Court, with Chief Justice Kristina Pickering, Nevada Supreme Court, Administrative Order 20-01 (In the Matter of the Eighth Judicial District Court's Response to Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)) (Mar. 13, 2020) (Ex. MET-LAS-010); and 15 more), 11 instruments from the agencies, boards and authorities of Nevada (Nevada OSHA (Victoria Carreon, Administrator, Division of Industrial Relations), Nevada OSHA Memorandum: COVID-19 requirements for essential businesses (update to the April 14, 2020 guidance) (Apr. 23, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-028); Nevada Gaming Control Board (Chairwoman Sandra Douglass Morgan), Industry Notice 2020-28 (May 14, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-GAMING-RACING-004); Nevada OSHA, Division of Industrial Relations, Nevada OSHA Updated Guidance for Essential Businesses and Phase 1 and 2 Businesses (supersedes May 8, 2020 guidance) (May 29, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-030); and 8 more), 179 federal instruments (The President and the White House Coronavirus Task Force, Guidelines for Opening Up America Again (Apr. 16, 2020) (Ex. FED-192); CMS, Quality, Safety & Oversight Group, QSO-20-14-NH, Guidance for Infection Control and Prevention of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Nursing Homes (Mar. 9, 2020; REVISED Mar. 13, 2020) (Ex. FED-097); The President and the White House Coronavirus Task Force (with CDC), The President's Coronavirus Guidelines for America: 15 Days to Slow the Spread (Mar. 16, 2020) (Ex. FED-190); and 176 more) and 37 standing duties (Congress (Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, § 5, Pub. L. 91-596, 84 Stat. 1593), 29 U.S.C. 654 (OSH Act § 5, the general duty clause) (standing) (Ex. DUT-FED-001); Congress (OSH Act § 11(c)), 29 U.S.C. 660(c) (OSH Act § 11(c), anti-retaliation) (standing) (Ex. DUT-FED-002); and 35 more). Each is an order, proclamation, rule or decree of a governmental authority with jurisdiction over the place or the trade, and each is listed in section 5 with its exhibit.

Step two, the function reached. The instruments reached these functions, in the Library's own labels: WF workforce (Ex. NV-012); WF (Ex. NV-016); HR (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-028); CB customer base (Ex. NV-004); EMP (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-030); IN in-person instruction (Ex. NV-018); SF (Ex. AGY-ST-LABOR-WORKPLACE-030); SF sales floor (Ex. NV-012); predicate (Ex. MET-LAS-024); AM casinos closed (Ex. NV-015).

Step three, the change compelled. Governor Steve Sisolak, Declaration of Emergency Directive 010 - Stay at Home Order (Mar. 31, 2020) (Ex. NV-012) ordered: "SECTION 1: The March 12, 2020 Declaration of Emergency is hereby extended to April 30, 2020. All Directives promulgated pursuant to this Declaration shall be in force for the duration that the Declaration of Emergency shall be in effect, unless specifically terminated by a subsequent order. SECTION…" Enforcement: Directive 007 penalties (NRS 199.280, 202.450) and local enforcement; Directive 013 s. 11: 'Government agencies may use all existing civil and criminal… Clark County Board of County Commissioners (regular meeting Apr. 21, 2020, item 57; Legistar matter HIST-1378115), Clark County emergency ordinance adding Clark County Code 3.04.065 (Violation of Declaration of Emergency), adopted Apr. 21, 2020 (Ex. MET-LAS-026) ordered: "Violation of an emergency order, directive, or regulation of the Governor, Board of Commissioners, Sheriff, or County Manager during the effective dates of a declared state of emergency is injurious to the public health, safety, or welfare and is punishable by suspension or revocation of a business…" Enforcement: Business-license suspension or revocation; administrative penalty up to $1,000 per violation per day; criminal misdemeanor Governor Steve Sisolak, Declaration of Emergency Directive 016 (Apr. 29, 2020) (Ex. NV-015) ordered: "SECTION 2: Effective May 1, 2020, non-essential retail businesses identified in Directive 003 Emergency Regulation... may resume retail sales on a curbside or home delivery basis only.... All businesses are encouraged to permit their employees to work from home to the maximum extent practicable....…" Enforcement: NV OSHA; Directive 007 penalties; local enforcement The operative words of every other instrument of the quarter are quoted in section 5.

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from Mar. 13, 2020 to June 30, 2020, 110 days. Declaration of Emergency Directive 010 - Stay at Home Order (Ex. NV-012) was in force from Apr. 1, 2020 to Apr. 30, 2020, 30 of the quarter's 110 days; Clark County emergency ordinance adding Clark County Code 3.04.065 (Violation of… (Ex. MET-LAS-026) was in force from Apr. 21, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2021, 71 of the quarter's 110 days; Declaration of Emergency Directive 016 (Ex. NV-015) was in force from May 1, 2020 to May 15, 2020, 15 of the quarter's 110 days. Of the 62 instruments in the quarter's record, 3 were in force on its first day, 34 on its last day and 3 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it. On the definitions the United States agreed to and the court adopted in Tri-State, the operation was partially suspended during the second quarter of 2020 due to orders from an appropriate governmental authority limiting commerce, travel or group meetings due to COVID-19. The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

Third quarter of 2020 (July 1, 2020 to Sept. 30, 2020)

Step one, the orders. In the third quarter of 2020 the Library holds 248 instruments in force for this selection: 23 instruments from the State of Nevada (Governor Steve Sisolak, Declaration of Emergency Directive 021 (Phase Two Reopening Plan), May 28, 2020, ss. 3, 12, 13, 15, 39, extended for the duration of the emergency by Directive 029 s. 4 (Ex.

MET-LAS-022); and 10 more), 8 instruments from the agencies, boards and authorities of Nevada (Nevada OSHA, Division of Industrial Relations, Nevada OSHA Updated Guidance for Businesses Operating in Phase 2 of Nevada United: Roadmap to Recovery Plan (July 29, 2020) (Ex.

NV-038) was in force from Apr. 30, 2021 to Sept. 30, 2021, 92 of the quarter's 92 days. Of the 43 instruments in the quarter's record, 17 were in force on its first day, 31 on its last day and 13 on every day of the quarter.

Step five, the statute's answer. Each function named in step two is a portion of the operation of the business; each change compelled in step three is a delay, interruption or termination of that portion; and but for the orders, no law required it.

The statute asks nothing further: not whether the business was essential or stayed open, not whether it could telework, not whose customers the orders addressed, and not for a percentage.

8. How to use this report

Keep this report with your payroll records and the other records that support your claim. The Notice itself describes what those records are. Q&A-70 says an employer "will adequately substantiate eligibility for the employee retention credit if the employer creates and maintains records that include," among other things, "any governmental order to suspend the employer's business operations" and "any records the employer relied upon to determine whether more than a nominal portion of its operations were suspended due to a governmental order or whether a governmental order had more than a nominal effect on its business operations" (Notice 2021-20, 2021-11 I.R.B. 922, Q&A-70, at 944-45). Q&A-71 says to keep those records "for at least 4 years after the date the tax becomes due or is paid, whichever comes later" (Q&A-71, at 945). This report is the first of those two items for your selection, and it is meant to sit beside the second.

If you have received a letter from the Service saying that no government orders were in effect during the quarter you claimed, this report answers that sentence with the public record, order by order. Read the quarter you claimed. For each instrument, the report gives you the issuer, the number, the dates, the words that commanded the change, the penalty behind them and the exhibit. Those are facts about the public record, and anyone can check them against the register, the code or the docket the report cites. The Service is free to argue about how much a given order affected your business. Whether the orders existed is not a matter of opinion.

Three points of public law matter to anyone holding such a letter. First, a notice that turns down a refund claim starts a clock. Under section 6532(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code, a refund suit cannot be brought "after the expiration of 2 years from the date of mailing by certified mail or registered mail by the Secretary to the taxpayer of a notice of the disallowance of the part of the claim to which the suit or proceeding relates." Second, asking the IRS Independent Office of Appeals to review the letter does not stop that clock; the Service's own page on the letter says so ("Requesting an appeal doesn't extend this time"), and section 6532(a)(4) provides that the Service's later consideration of the claim does not extend the period. Third, the period can be extended only by a written agreement between you and the Service under section 6532(a)(2), made on Form 907, Agreement to Extend the Time to Bring Suit, and effective only if the Service signs it before the two years run out.
