I would counter that the Ham/WAN PDSR is critical infrastructure in support of public safety, and as such this work party is covered under "essential work". Of course, social distancing rules should be observed and appropriate PPE should be worn (face masks).

From reading the official essential workforce documents, I would think HamWAN qualifies under "Communications and Information Technology".  We fall under a number of qualifiers in that list.DaleAH6ET -------- Original message --------From: David Hiers via PSDR <psdr@hamwan.org> Date: 5/22/20 12:08 PM (GMT-08:00) To: Puget Sound Data Ring <psdr@hamwan.org> Subject: Re: [HamWAN PSDR] Rattlesnake Mountain volunteer call I've gotta wonder what is permitted here...That list excludes the entire NRF.  Seriously, the commercial business of running ambulances down the road is simply not addressed.  Since Ham radio is part of ESF-2, doing the work that might be necessary to, say, keep Big County EOC on the air for the 2nd wave of this little nastie might be covered under a different regulation.Not sure about where it'll all land, but it might be worth considering this aspect of the question.DavidKF7JCK On Friday, May 22, 2020, 11:52:27 AM PDT, Dakota Nelson <dakota.w.nelson@gmail.com> wrote: I hate to be that guy, but... just a heads up that going to this (group events with people outside your household) is literally illegal.
