(1) As of 25 May, face-covering mandates are established in 25/58 California counties
(43%), affecting a total of 23,049,402 Californians (58%, out of 39,782,870).
(2) Effective 11 May, Capitol Corridor, Pacific Surfliner, San Joaquins, and all other Amtrak
services (trains AND shuttles) require face coverings for service.
(3) Capitol Corridor has suspended Emeryville to San Francisco (Route 99) and San Jose
to Santa Barbara (Route 21) shuttle services. For San Francisco connecting service from
the East Bay, please transfer to BART at the Richmond or Coliseum stations. For service
south of San Jose, please utilize the Coast Starlight, or other private shuttles.
(4) Despite rising infections and deaths in both counties, Riverside and San Bernardino's
Public Health Officers have rescinded their County Health Orders/face-covering mandate.
Regardless of the rescission, CalGreen applauds Needles Area Transit (San Bernardino)
and ALL Riverside County public transit systems, for continuing to require face coverings.
(5) While the transit system's county has not mandated face coverings, the transit system itself requires face coverings for service.
(6) Until further notice, San Francisco Bay Ferry has suspended service to the Harbor Bay, Richmond, and South San Francisco stations.
(7) Countywide health orders (mandates) requiring face coverings are issued pursuant to the California Health and Safety Code, Sections 101040, 101085, 120175, and 120275, et seq. Violations of, or failure to comply with issued County Health Orders, are a misdemeanor, punishable by fine, imprisonment, or both, and pursuant to the California Government Code Section 8665, and Penal Code Sections 069 and 148(a)(1). Simply put, all transit systems within the twenty-two counties listed above are subject to the face-covering requirement. (Santa Barabara County's face-covering mandate takes affect Tuesday, 26 May, at 17:00.)
