Operative words

as long as the facility complies with guidance and directives from the CDC, the Wyoming Department of Health, and appropriate licensing and regulatory agencies

Penalty

W.S. 35-1-105 and 35-1-106 (recited)

What it required

Forbade gatherings of ten or more; exempted long-term care facilities from the cap on the mandatory condition that the facility 'complies with' CDC and WDH guidance and directives (verb: 'complies with'; the exemption is lost without compliance).

Retrieval note

The one clause in the Wyoming orders that incorporated CDC guidance as a condition of operation; recorded as mandatory because the exemption depends on it.
