Maine Gov. Janet Mills has announced the Moving Maine Forward plan which eases COVID-19 travel restrictions and increases capacity limits of businesses.

Highlights:

• Indoor gatherings can go to 50% capacity starting 26 March, 75% starting 24 May.
• Outdoor gatherings can go to 75% starting 26 March, 100$ starting 24 May.
• Businesses already at higher levels of capacity can maintain same until 24 May.
• Capacity increases are subject to "dialdown" by CDC.
• Bars and tasting rooms can reopen 26 March under Seated Food and Drink guidelines.
• Effective immediately MA, CT and RI join list of test/quarantine-exempt states along with NH and VT.
• Travelers from any US state who have recovered from COVID-19 or been vaccinated are now exempt from testing/quarantine.
• As of 1 May, travelers from all states will be exempt unless CDC determines that a state has a high prevalence of highly contagious COVID-19 variants - an approach likely to remain in place through the summer.
• Face mask and social distancing protocols remain in place.
