The move comes days after Murphy and top lawmakers struck a deal on the scheme following a weeks-long stalemate between the governor and the Senate President.

While the list has grown, Gov. Phil Murphy has not budged on his stance “begging for people’s personal responsibility" with the action, in contrast to New York's recently announced $2,000 fine for non-compliance.

Just days before the practice was set to resume in New Jersey, Gov. Phil Murphy announced that the restart would be put on hold indefinitely – leaving restaurateurs with losses due to ordered food, rehired employees, and preparing establishments to adhere to strict guidelines.

"[W]ith the explosion in the other states, as the reagents and other raw materials, that’s become a scarce resource – it has slowed the turnaround time down,” the governor said, as labs are pushed to their limits. “That’s a national reality.”

The Request For Information solicits participation from owners, operators, manufacturers and other supply chain businesses, environmental justice advocates, impacted communities, researchers, and other stakeholders to help inform future programming.

The agreement between the governor, Senate President Stephen Sweeney and Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin calls for a four-person “Select Commission on Emergency COVID-19 Borrowing” to approve any financing.

“The [Economic Development Authority] should have performed more diligence before approving multi-million incentives,” said Jim Walden, special counsel for the group convened by the governor to scrutinize the state's corporate incentives. “The lack of any fiscal cap led to pigs feeding at the trough. Often these were large companies, who did not need the incentives to stay in New Jersey, and offered illusory benefits.”

“Some of these companies voluntarily provided evidence to the task force that tended to show that they, with at least some level of sincerity, considered the site as a potential relocation option,” read the 104-page report released Thursday. “The reader should not infer any conclusions about any company that are not explicitly set out in this Third Report.”

Thursday data showed that more than 46,000 Garden State residents filed for unemployment during the week ending July 4. For the week prior, that number clocked in at nearly 28,000.

The order takes effect immediately, with failure to comply carrying a disorderly persons offense that could include fines of up to $1,000, and a prison sentence of up to six months.

A restaurant owner could allow a form of the service only where the establishment can open up half of its wall space “on two sides to the outside.” "Fixed roofs with two open sides. That's going to be considered outdoor dining,” the governor said Wednesday.
