NEW YORK (Reuters) – North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum issued guidelines for reopening the state as soon as May 1 in a statement issued late Wednesday, according to a statement from his office.

The state’s commerce department will work with business associations to develop new safety procedures for a gradual, safe reopening, according to a statement issued by his office.

Safety measures could include daily disinfection, mandatory health protocols, and limits on the number of customers who can enter a business.
