Phase 2 of our reopening begins soon and the health and safety of our residents continues to be the number one priority. We have provided clear rules for businesses to guide them through this next phase. Updated industry-specific requirements are now available for Phase 2, which is set to begin on June 17.
Phase 2 allows a wide range of additional businesses to reopen and expands the services for some of the sectors that successfully opened in Phase 1. Specific rules are now available for the following sectors:
- Amusement Parks
- Hotels
- Indoor dining
- Indoor museums, zoos, and aquariums
- Indoor recreation (e.g., bowling, movie theatres, etc.)
- Libraries
- Outdoor events
- Personal services (e.g., nail salons, tattoo parlors, etc.)
- Sports and fitness facilities (e.g., gyms, fitness centers, pools, etc.)
The sector-specific rules include detailed information and requirements about physical distancing, facility capacity, hygiene, sanitizing, signage, personal protective equipment (PPE), scheduling, training and more.
Beginning Monday, businesses and non-profits planning to reopen on June 17 as part of Phase 2 need to visit Connecticut’s self-certification website to certify that they that they are compliant with the reopening rules for their sector.
Sincerely,
David Lehman, Commissioner
