Section 173-6-007 - NOTICE OF ORDERS

007.01 Orders to Individuals

Orders directed to individuals will be delivered in a manner reasonably calculated to give the individual actual notice of the terms of the Order consistent with the threat of communicable disease, illness, or poisoning. Personal delivery may be attempted, except in cases when personal delivery would present a risk of spread of disease or exposure to agents that cannot be avoided by measures reasonably available. Electronic transmission by e-mail or telefacsimile will be sufficient, provided that any available means of determining and recording receipt of such notice will be made. If electronic transmission is impossible or unavailable under the circumstances, oral communication by telephone or direct transmission of voice will be sufficient, and such communication will be memorialized at the time it is delivered.

007.02 Orders to Groups

Orders directed to groups of individuals or populations may be disseminated by mass media.

007.03 Quarantine Orders Regarding Areas

Orders directing the quarantine of premises or geographic locations may be disseminated by mass media and will be posted at or near the premises or geographic location in order to be visible and effective to achieve the intended purpose. Copies of the Orders will be delivered to the owners or others in control of the premises, if known, in the same manner as Orders directed to individuals.

007.04 Notice to Elected Officials

Copies of all Orders will be provided if reasonably possible to the chief elected official(s) of the jurisdiction(s) in which the Order is implemented.
