Amendment #3 to Mayor's COVID-19 Emergency Rule No. 12 Page 3 of 4 While awaiting the results of the arrival test, the traveler is not required to quarantine under this Amendment; however, the traveler is still subject to the State’s order of self-quarantine unless and until a negative result is obtained for the pre-test in accordance with Exhibit B Section 4(c) of the 14th Proclamation. Travelers whose arrival test are positive or inconclusive for COVID-19 will be referred to the State Department of Health Hawaiʻi District Office for further handling. • Exemption/Modified Quarantine: Persons entering the State to perform critical infrastructure functions or who have otherwise been exempted by the Director of Emergency Management or his designee, shall be subject to self-quarantine but may obtain limited exemption from the State at travelexemption.hawaii.gov. Only persons who have been granted an exemption though travelexemption.hawaii.gov may temporarily break self-quarantine and only for the purposes expressed in the written exemption. • No pre-test prior to arrival: Persons not availing themselves to the State’s negative test exception, and not granted an exemption through travelexemption.hawaii.gov are subject to the State’s mandatory 14 day self-quarantine. These travelers are not subject to the arrival test. There is no option for testing out of the mandatory self-quarantine with a subsequent negative test result. • Place of Quarantine: Persons requiring paid or commercial lodging while subject to the mandatory 14 day self-quarantine, or a portion thereof, shall designate a hotel or motel as their quarantine location. Short-term vacation rentals (STVR), bed and breakfast (B&B) establishments, or other paid or commercial lodging defined by the Hawaiʻi Revised Statutes as “transient accommodations” shall not be designated as a quarantine location except for: 1) Visiting essential and critical infrastructure workers, provided quarantine restrictions are followed; and 2) Persons meeting the negative test exception under Section IV.B and Exhibit B Section 4(a)(2) of the 14th Proclamation (pre-test with negative test results on arrival). An STVR, B&B or other paid or commercial lodging defined by the Hawaiʻi Revised Statutes as “transient accommodations” may not be designated as a quarantine location for a new or “intended” Hawaiʻi County resident. 3
