1. About this report

Prepared by The COVID Project, Sept. 30, 2026. Selection: State Alaska and no metropolitan area (elsewhere in the State). 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=AK&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.

CMS, in collaboration with medical societies and associations, recently created recommendations to postpone non-essential surgeries and other procedures. This document provides recommendations to limit those medical services that could be deferred, such as non-emergent, elective treatment, and preventive medical services for patients of all ages. A tiered framework is recommended to prioritize services and care to those who require emergent or urgent attention to save a life, manage severe disease, or avoid further harms from an underlying condition.... CMS urges healthcare facilities and clinicians to consider the following tiered approach to curtailing non-emergent, elective medical services and treatment.

To expand capacity to care for these patients and to conserve adequate staff and supplies, especially personal protective equipment (PPE), on March 18 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recommended limiting non-essential care and expanding surge capacity into ambulatory surgical centers and other areas.... Therefore, if states or regions have passed the Gating Criteria (symptoms, cases, and hospitals) announced on April 16, 2020, then they may proceed to Phase I.... Maximum use of all telehealth modalities is strongly encouraged. However, for care that cannot be accomplished virtually, these recommendations -- the first in a series of recommendations -- may guide healthcare systems and facilities as they consider resuming in-person care of non-COVID-19 patients in regions with low incidence of COVID-19 disease.

As a matter of enforcement discretion, the HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) will not impose penalties for noncompliance with the regulatory requirements under the HIPAA rules against covered health care providers in connection with the good faith provision of telehealth during the COVID-19 nationwide public health emergency.... A covered health care provider that wants to use audio or video communication technology to provide telehealth to patients during the COVID-19 nationwide public health emergency can use any non-public facing remote communication product that is available to communicate with patients.... This exercise of discretion applies to telehealth provided for any reason, regardless of whether the telehealth service is related to the diagnosis and treatment of health conditions related to COVID-19.

The spread of COVID-19 has continued across the state since jury trials were first suspended on March 16, 2020. Many school districts have announced that the school year will begin without in-person attendance. The Municipality of Anchorage recently issued an order that prohibits all indoor gatherings involving more than 15 people. These developments suggest that it would be unduly challenging to require jurors and other participants to gather for purposes of trial.... 1. Jury trials remain suspended until at least November 2, 2020.... 4.... To promote social distancing, the public may be required to participate by teleconference

I have determined that the emergency conditions in [Iowa] resulting from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic beginning on January 20, 2020, and continuing, are of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant a major disaster declaration under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the 'Stafford Act'). Therefore, I declare that such a major disaster exists in [Iowa].... You are authorized to provide assistance for emergency protective measures (Category B), including direct Federal assistance, under the Public Assistance program [statewide].

End of general restrictions, State of Alaska: COVID-19 Health Mandate 016, Reopen Alaska Responsibly Plan, Phase III/IV (Attachments D through V reissued as 'Advisory Document Phase III-IV'), Governor Dunleavy, Commissioner Crum and Dr. Zink (Ex. AK-098, AK-099, AK-100, AK-048) (2020-05-22 (8:00 a.m.); the statewide stay-home order (Mandate 011) had been modified by Phase I on April 24, 2020 and Phase II on May 8, 2020). What remained: Health Mandate 010 (interstate and international travel: fourteen-day quarantine, from June 6, 2020 a negative-test alternative, from August 11, 2020 mandatory pre-travel testing for non-residents, from October 16, 2020 test-or-quarantine for all) through November 15, 2020, continued as Outbreak Health Order No. 6 from November 16, 2020 until the disaster declaration lapsed at 12:00 a.m. February 14, 2021; Health Mandate 018 (travel to and from communities off the road and marine highway systems prohibited except for critical personal needs and critical infrastructure; protective-plan filing by every business with staff traveling between communities) through November 15, 2020, continued as Outbreak Health Order No. 8 to February 14, 2021; Health Mandate 015 (health-care providers: universal masking, screening of every patient, conditions on elective surgery; Appendix 03 for dentistry) through November 15, 2020; Health Mandate 017 and then Outbreak Health Order No. 5 (protective plans for commercial fishing vessels, seafood processors and critical-infrastructure businesses with arriving staff) to February 14, 2021; Health Mandate 014 and Outbreak Health Order No. 4 (non-congregate quarantine and isolation sheltering); the Governor's July 22, 2020 State-facilities mask directive; the November 12, 2020 emergency alert requiring executive-branch employees to work from home whenever feasible; the Alaska Supreme Court's special orders suspending jury trials and in-person proceedings; the Anchorage emergency orders (EO-13 masks from June 29, 2020; EO-14 and EO-15 in summer 2020; EO-16 through EO-20 from December 1, 2020 to May 3, 2021); the Juneau mask and mitigation ordinances (July 20, 2020 onward, re-established April 26, 2021 and extended to March 1, 2022); the school-district masking rules of the 2021-22 year; and, from May 1, 2021, the DHSS COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Order with its September 21, 2021 Addendum No. 1.

Preemption of local orders, State of Alaska: Alaska did not preempt or bar local business, gathering or mask orders at any time in the period; it superseded local travel restrictions in the spring of 2020 and later confined local travel rules within limits. Health Mandate 010 (March 23, 2020) provides: 'This Mandate supersedes any local government travel restrictions' (AK-012, p. 2); Health Mandate 012 (March 27, 2020) provides: 'This Mandate supersedes any local government or tribal mandate, directive, or order restricting intrastate travel' (AK-014, p. 2); Health Mandate 011 (March 27, 2020) provides: 'This mandate supersedes any local government or tribal mandate, directive, or order' (AK-013, p. 3). Health Mandate 018 (May 12, 2020) and the DHSS mandates page acknowledged that boroughs and cities 'set their own requirements and rules for travelers' (AK-020; AK-050). Outbreak Health Order No. 8 (November 15, 2020), Section A: 'Local communities may enact travel restrictions, but cannot prevent individuals traveling for a Critical Personal Need or the conduct of an Essential Service/Critical Infrastructure installation, maintenance, or repair,' may not prevent residents from returning home, may not prevent critical-infrastructure workers from commencing work, and 'should not prevent the travel of work crews engaged in non-essential construction or repair projects' (AK-036, pp. 2-3). Health Advisory No. 3 (April 26, 2021): 'The State of Alaska DOES NOT restrict or limit travel within the state. Individual communities, acting through their local leaders and government bodies, may wish to withdraw or enact laws related to protection of communities from COVID-19' (AK-087, p. 1). The Governor's HB 76 FAQ (April 30, 2021): 'municipalities have their own local powers that may provide restrictions on businesses as well as a mask mandate. The Governor has no constitutional authority to interfere with local decisions in first-class cities' (AK-089). Anchorage (a unified home-rule municipality) and the City and Borough of Juneau issued and enforced their own emergency orders and ordinances throughout, with penalties (Anchorage: mandatory suspension or closure of the business for up to two weeks; Juneau: civil fine of up to $25).

Does HB 76 mandate the wearing of masks in Alaska? No. Does HB 76 require Alaskans to get a COVID-19 vaccine? No. Governor Dunleavy already signed an Administrative Order banning 'vaccine passports' for travel in Alaska.... Does HB 76 require that tourists or Alaskans get tested for COVID-19 before coming to Alaska? No.... testing is not mandated by the State of Alaska. Does HB 76 give DHSS Commissioner power to shut down businesses or places of worship? No. HB 76 does not give Governor Dunleavy or the DHSS Commissioner the power to issue any orders or mandates that would allow such shutdowns to occur. However, municipalities have their own local powers that may provide restrictions on businesses as well as a mask mandate. The Governor has no constitutional authority to interfere with local decisions in first-class cities.

What remained: Health Mandate 010 (interstate and international travel: fourteen-day quarantine, from June 6, 2020 a negative-test alternative, from August 11, 2020 mandatory pre-travel testing for non-residents, from October 16, 2020 test-or-quarantine for all) through November 15, 2020, continued as Outbreak Health Order No. 6 from November 16, 2020 until the disaster declaration lapsed at 12:00 a.m. February 14, 2021; Health Mandate 018 (travel to and from communities off the road and marine highway systems prohibited except for critical personal needs and critical infrastructure; protective-plan filing by every business with staff traveling between communities) through November 15, 2020, continued as Outbreak Health Order No. 8 to February 14, 2021; Health Mandate 015 (health-care providers: universal masking, screening of every patient, conditions on elective surgery; Appendix 03 for dentistry) through November 15, 2020; Health Mandate 017 and then Outbreak Health Order No. 5 (protective plans for commercial fishing vessels, seafood processors and critical-infrastructure businesses with arriving staff) to February 14, 2021; Health Mandate 014 and Outbreak Health Order No. 4 (non-congregate quarantine and isolation sheltering); the Governor's July 22, 2020 State-facilities mask directive; the November 12, 2020 emergency alert requiring executive-branch employees to work from home whenever feasible; the Alaska Supreme Court's special orders suspending jury trials and in-person proceedings; the Anchorage emergency orders (EO-13 masks from June 29, 2020; EO-14 and EO-15 in summer 2020; EO-16 through EO-20 from December 1, 2020 to May 3, 2021); the Juneau mask and mitigation ordinances (July 20, 2020 onward, re-established April 26, 2021 and extended to March 1, 2022); the school-district masking rules of the 2021-22 year; and, from May 1, 2021, the DHSS COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Order with its September 21, 2021 Addendum No. 1.

Preemption of local orders, State of Alaska: Alaska did not preempt or bar local business, gathering or mask orders at any time in the period; it superseded local travel restrictions in the spring of 2020 and later confined local travel rules within limits. Health Mandate 010 (March 23, 2020) provides: 'This Mandate supersedes any local government travel restrictions' (AK-012, p. 2); Health Mandate 012 (March 27, 2020) provides: 'This Mandate supersedes any local government or tribal mandate, directive, or order restricting intrastate travel' (AK-014, p. 2); Health Mandate 011 (March 27, 2020) provides: 'This mandate supersedes any local government or tribal mandate, directive, or order' (AK-013, p. 3). Health Mandate 018 (May 12, 2020) and the DHSS mandates page acknowledged that boroughs and cities 'set their own requirements and rules for travelers' (AK-020; AK-050). Outbreak Health Order No. 8 (November 15, 2020), Section A: 'Local communities may enact travel restrictions, but cannot prevent individuals traveling for a Critical Personal Need or the conduct of an Essential Service/Critical Infrastructure installation, maintenance, or repair,' may not prevent residents from returning home, may not prevent critical-infrastructure workers from commencing work, and 'should not prevent the travel of work crews engaged in non-essential construction or repair projects' (AK-036, pp. 2-3). Health Advisory No. 3 (April 26, 2021): 'The State of Alaska DOES NOT restrict or limit travel within the state. Individual communities, acting through their local leaders and government bodies, may wish to withdraw or enact laws related to protection of communities from COVID-19' (AK-087, p. 1). The Governor's HB 76 FAQ (April 30, 2021): 'municipalities have their own local powers that may provide restrictions on businesses as well as a mask mandate. The Governor has no constitutional authority to interfere with local decisions in first-class cities' (AK-089). Anchorage (a unified home-rule municipality) and the City and Borough of Juneau issued and enforced their own emergency orders and ordinances throughout, with penalties (Anchorage: mandatory suspension or closure of the business for up to two weeks; Juneau: civil fine of up to $25).

Preemption of local orders, State of Alaska: Alaska did not preempt or bar local business, gathering or mask orders at any time in the period; it superseded local travel restrictions in the spring of 2020 and later confined local travel rules within limits. Health Mandate 010 (March 23, 2020) provides: 'This Mandate supersedes any local government travel restrictions' (AK-012, p. 2); Health Mandate 012 (March 27, 2020) provides: 'This Mandate supersedes any local government or tribal mandate, directive, or order restricting intrastate travel' (AK-014, p. 2); Health Mandate 011 (March 27, 2020) provides: 'This mandate supersedes any local government or tribal mandate, directive, or order' (AK-013, p. 3). Health Mandate 018 (May 12, 2020) and the DHSS mandates page acknowledged that boroughs and cities 'set their own requirements and rules for travelers' (AK-020; AK-050). Outbreak Health Order No. 8 (November 15, 2020), Section A: 'Local communities may enact travel restrictions, but cannot prevent individuals traveling for a Critical Personal Need or the conduct of an Essential Service/Critical Infrastructure installation, maintenance, or repair,' may not prevent residents from returning home, may not prevent critical-infrastructure workers from commencing work, and 'should not prevent the travel of work crews engaged in non-essential construction or repair projects' (AK-036, pp. 2-3). Health Advisory No. 3 (April 26, 2021): 'The State of Alaska DOES NOT restrict or limit travel within the state. Individual communities, acting through their local leaders and government bodies, may wish to withdraw or enact laws related to protection of communities from COVID-19' (AK-087, p. 1). The Governor's HB 76 FAQ (April 30, 2021): 'municipalities have their own local powers that may provide restrictions on businesses as well as a mask mandate. The Governor has no constitutional authority to interfere with local decisions in first-class cities' (AK-089). Anchorage (a unified home-rule municipality) and the City and Borough of Juneau issued and enforced their own emergency orders and ordinances throughout, with penalties (Anchorage: mandatory suspension or closure of the business for up to two weeks; Juneau: civil fine of up to $25).

5. Standing duties in Alaska

Alaska's compulsion ran on three standing statutory tracks that predate COVID-19 and outlasted every Health Mandate. First, the Alaska Disaster Act gives every gubernatorial disaster order 'the force of law' (AS 26.23.020(b)) and empowers the Governor to 'control... the movement of persons within the area, and the occupancy of premises in it' (AS 26.23.020(g)(7)); the Disease Control statute lets the Department of Health and Social Services, in a declared disease disaster, 'close, direct, and compel the evacuation of, or decontaminate' any facility that 'may endanger the public health' (AS 18.15.390(1)), binds persons to isolation and quarantine on pain of class B and class A misdemeanors (AS 18.15.385(n)-(o)), and authorizes investigation of 'facilities or materials that may pose a threat to the public health' (AS 18.15.375(b)). Every Health Mandate, the Essential Services Order and Mandate 016 recited the consequence of noncompliance in the same words: an order to cease operations, a civil fine of up to $1,000 per violation, and prosecution for reckless endangerment under AS 11.41.250, a class A misdemeanor carrying one year (AS 12.55.135(a)), $25,000 for a person and $500,000, or $2,500,000 where death results, for a business organization (AS 12.55.035(b)(5), (c)(1)). Second, the Alaska Occupational Safety and Health Act commands that 'An employer shall do everything necessary to protect the life, health, and safety of employees' (AS 18.60.075(a)), including furnishing a workplace 'free from recognized hazards' ((a)(4)) and complying with the federal general-industry standards adopted by reference in 8 AAC 61.1010; AKOSH told employers in May 2020 that the Health Mandates 'Must be Followed - "Shall"', that an Exposure Control Plan 'is a requirement of The General Duty Clause', and that the 'employer is required to use the Hierarchy of Controls'; and on July 21, 2021 AKOSH implemented OSHA's COVID-19 Healthcare Emergency Temporary Standard for Alaska health-care employers (Program Directive 21-05). Third, on April 30, 2021 the Legislature conditioned every business's immunity from customer-exposure suits on having operated 'in substantial compliance with the applicable federal, state, and municipal laws and health mandates in effect at the time of the customer's exposure' (HB 76, ch. 2 SLA 2021, secs. 14-15), which made compliance with the health protocols the legal standard of care for the second and third quarters of 2021. The Alaska Food Code independently required food-establishment operators to exclude employees with communicable disease (18 AAC 31.300) and exposed them to immediate closure for an 'imminent health hazard' (18 AAC 31.905(a)(1)); DEC's COVID-19 food-establishment guidance and Mandate 016 Attachment F carried those standing rules into the pandemic protocols. The reopening attachments made continued operation conditional ('can resume operations if they meet all of the following requirements'), used 'must' for screening, sanitation, training and the CDC-guided illness plan, 'should' for six-foot spacing and 'strongly encouraged' for cloth face coverings, and from May 22, 2020 became 'Advisory Document[s]' that still said 'must' for the CDC-guided illness plan and post-positive disinfection; the Outbreak Health Orders of November 16, 2020 carried 'the power of law'. The Superior Court enforced Anchorage EO-15 against a diner by injunction on August 7, 2020 ('A property interest cannot outweigh a person's interest in life'). Each of these instruments is a governmental command or a governmental condition, not an election by the employer.

The phase question

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

So for example, private businesses, public and private transportation providers, public and private schools, and religious organizations are all eligible for PREP Act coverage when they act [in accordance with the Declaration]... a program planner can be a 'private sector employer or community group' that 'carries out the described activities.'... Such entities may also include businesses, schools, and places of worship.

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....

This section applies the five-step test of section 3 to a business in Alaska 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 270 instruments in force for this selection: 44 instruments from the State of Alaska (Mayor Ethan Berkowitz, Emergency Order EO-09 (Phase Two: Recovery) with Attachments A-O (May 11, 2020) (Ex. AK-067); Mayor Ethan Berkowitz, Emergency Order EO-03 ('Hunker Down' order) (Mar. 20, 2020) (Ex. AK-103); Governor Dunleavy; Commissioner Crum; Dr. Zink, COVID-19 Health Mandate 011 (Social Distancing) (Mar. 27, 2020) (Ex.

AGY-ST-TRANSPORT-PORTS-TRANSIT-082); Alaska Department of Corrections (Commissioner Nancy Dahlstrom), Alaska DOC COVID-19 page, 'Access to Institutions' (as archived Mar. 29, 2020) (Mar. 13, 2020) (Ex. AGY-ST-CORRECTIONS-EMA-GUARD-087); Governor Mike Dunleavy; Commissioner Adam Crum, Alaska Department of Health and Social Services; Dr. Anne Zink, Chief Medical Officer, COVID-19 Health Mandate 010 (Mandate 10.1 - International and Interstate Travel - Order for Self-Quarantine), issued Mar. 23, 2020, effective 12:01 a.m. Mar. 25, 2020: all persons arriving in Alaska must self-quarantine for 14 days at a designated location; critical-infrastructure businesses whose workers must travel to Alaska must submit a plan by 3:00 p.m. Mar. 24, 2020; supersedes local travel restrictions (Ex. AGY-ST-TRANSPORT-PORTS-TRANSIT-080); and 1 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 43 standing duties (Alaska State Legislature (codified statute administered by the Department of Health and Social Services), AS 18.15.355 - 18.15.395 (standing) (Ex. DUT-AK-001); Alaska State Legislature (Alaska Disaster Act; administered by the Department of Military and Veterans' Affairs, AS 26.23.220), AS 26.23.020 and AS 26.23.025 (standing) (Ex. DUT-AK-002); and 41 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: CB (Ex. AK-009); WF workforce (Ex. AK-013); TV travel (Ex. AGY-ST-TRANSPORT-PORTS-TRANSIT-082); WF (Ex. AK-043); DR (Ex. AK-067); HR (Ex. AK-013); LG lodging (Ex. AK-018); OF telework (Ex. AK-067); SL (Ex. AK-067); SC PPE (Ex. AK-008).

Step three, the change compelled. Mayor Ethan Berkowitz, Emergency Order EO-09 (Phase Two: Recovery) with Attachments A-O (May 11, 2020) (Ex. AK-067) ordered: "1. Everyone currently in the Municipality of Anchorage (the 'Municipality') shall limit outings and physical contact with those outside their household.... individuals may not gather in groups of more than 50 people.... 3.b. Individuals who have recently travelled outside Alaska are required, in…" Enforcement: Emergency regulations with the power of law (AMC 3.80.060H) Mayor Ethan Berkowitz, Emergency Order EO-03 ('Hunker Down' order) (Mar. 20, 2020) (Ex. AK-103) ordered: "Residents to stay at home as much as possible and limit travel to essential errands; retail establishments directed not to remain open unnecessarily; outdoor recreation permitted with distancing (Alaska Public Media, Mar. 20, 2020). The Municipality's Safe Anchorage roadmap describes the resulting…" Enforcement: Emergency order under AMC 3.80 Governor Dunleavy; Commissioner Crum; Dr. Zink, COVID-19 Health Mandate 011 (Social Distancing) (Mar. 27, 2020) (Ex. AK-013) ordered: "All persons in Alaska, except for those engaged in essential health care services, public government services, and essential business activities, are mandated to remain at their place of residence and practice social distancing.... I. The Governor orders individuals to abide by the following: a.…" Enforcement: A violation of a state COVID-19 Mandate may subject a business or organization to an order to cease operations and/or a civil fine of up to $1,000 per… 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. Emergency Order EO-09 (Phase Two: Recovery) with Attachments A-O (Ex. AK-067) was in force from May 11, 2020 to May 25, 2020, 15 of the quarter's 110 days; Emergency Order EO-03 ('Hunker Down' order) (Ex. AK-103) was in force from Mar. 22, 2020 to June 30, 2020, 101 of the quarter's 110 days; COVID-19 Health Mandate 011 (Social Distancing) (Ex. AK-013) was in force from Mar. 28, 2020 to May 8, 2020, 42 of the quarter's 110 days. Of the 48 instruments in the quarter's record, 3 were in force on its first day, 26 on its last day and 3 on every day of the quarter; 1 carries no parsed date and is placed in the quarter by the record itself.

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 242 instruments in force for this selection: 29 instruments from the State of Alaska (Mayor Ethan Berkowitz, Emergency Order EO-14 (Return to Modified Version of Phase Two: Gathering Limits, Capacity Limitations at Bars, Restaurants, Gyms, and More) (July 22, 2020) (Ex.

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 third 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.

Individuals must avoid physically going to their workplace if it is possible to work remotely... 3. Gathering Limitations.... All indoor gatherings are…" Enforcement: Violations may result in mandatory suspension or closure for up to two weeks Acting Mayor Austin Quinn-Davidson, Emergency Order EO-18 (Easing Up Order) (Jan. 28, 2021) (Ex. AK-076) ordered: "1. Individuals.... Individuals must avoid physically going to their workplace if it is possible to work remotely... b. As detailed in the State's Health Order No. 6, individuals who have traveled from outside Alaska are required upon arrival/return to limit contact with others pending negative…" Enforcement: Violations may result in mandatory suspension of activities or closure of individual businesses, non-profits, and other entities for a period of up to two weeks Acting Mayor Austin Quinn-Davidson, Emergency Order EO-19 ('Make it a Safe Spring') (Mar. 4, 2021) (Ex. AK-077) ordered: "1. Individuals. Everyone in the Municipality of Anchorage... shall limit outings and physical contact with those outside of their household.... 4. Gathering Limitations.... All indoor gatherings involving consumption of food or drink are limited to 25 people; indoor gatherings without food or drink…" Enforcement: Violations may result in mandatory suspension of activities or closure... for a period of up to two weeks 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 Jan. 1, 2021 to Mar. 31, 2021, 90 days. Emergency Order EO-17 (Easing Up Order) (Ex. AK-075) was in force from Jan. 1, 2021 to Feb. 1, 2021, 32 of the quarter's 90 days; Emergency Order EO-18 (Easing Up Order) (Ex. AK-076) was in force from Feb. 1, 2021 to Mar. 8, 2021, 36 of the quarter's 90 days; Emergency Order EO-19 ('Make it a Safe Spring') (Ex. AK-077) was in force from Mar. 8, 2021 to Apr. 16, 2021, 24 of the quarter's 90 days. Of the 23 instruments in the quarter's record, 14 were in force on its first day, 8 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 first quarter of 2021 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.

Second quarter of 2021 (Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021)

Step four, the quarter. The quarter's record runs from Apr. 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021, 91 days. Emergency Order EO-19 ('Make it a Safe Spring') (Ex. AK-077) was in force from Mar. 8, 2021 to Apr. 16, 2021, 16 of the quarter's 91 days; Emergency Order EO-20 ('Do It For Summer') with Attachments A-H (Ex.

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.

The COVID Project does not give legal advice, and this report is not a substitute for it. Take it to your accountant, your enrolled agent or your lawyer. The dates above are public law, and the decisions they call for are yours and your adviser's to make.
