Travel Restrictions: Green Locations
The Secretary of Defense recently signed a memo, moving to a conditions-based, phased approach to
personnel movement and travel. As of today, the following locations meet the conditions to lift travel
restrictions, subject to the assessment of conditions at individual military installations within these areas.
These criteria are: 1) removal of shelter-in-place orders or other travel restrictions 2) 14-day downward
trajectory of flu-like and COVID-19-like symptoms; and 3) 14-day downward trajectory of new COVID-19
cases or positive tests. The secretaries of the military departments, commanders of the combatant
commands, and the chief management officer will assess specific DOD installations, facilities, or
locations under their purview.
