New Jersey beaches can open, with restrictions in place By MARK ROSMAN Managing Editor
W
hen the Memorial Day weekend begins on May 22, New Jersey’s beaches will be open for business. On May 14, Gov. Phil Murphy signed an Executive Order allowing beaches, boardwalks, lakes and lakeshores to open with social distancing measures in place. The order takes effect on May 22 and was issued as New Jerseyans continued to deal with the impact of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. “I’m thrilled to announce the Jersey Shore will be open to families across our state and region in a way that is consistent with protecting the public health of every beach-goer,” Murphy said. “This action will ensure New Jerseyans can enjoy our state’s greatest natural resource ahead of the summer months,” the governor said. According to a press release, under Murphy’s Executive Order, the following amenities will remain closed on private and public beaches, boardwalks, lakes, and lakeshores: water fountains, picnic areas, playgrounds, pavilions, indoor recreational facilities, and other buildings and facilities, such as visitor centers. Bathrooms, showering areas and changing areas may open. To limit physical interactions, the order requires municipalities, lake commissions, private club associations or entities, and other local government to implement reasonable restrictions, including imposing non-discriminatory capacity restrictions; requiring that members of the public practice social distancing; removing, tapingoff or otherwise blocking all benches and tables; prohibiting special events such as festivals, concerts, fireworks, and movies; and prohibiting all organized or contact activities or sports. The restrictions also apply to public piers, docks, wharfs, boat ramps and boat landings throughout the state. Any unit of county or local government, and private beach clubs, may impose additional restrictions to the ones listed above and retain the legal authority to close beaches or boardwalks if they choose to do so, according to the press release.
The Executive Order recommends, but does not order, that people wear a face covering while in public settings at the beaches, lakes and lakeshores when social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. Restaurants and bars on beaches, boardwalks, lakes and lakeshores are still limited to delivery and take-out services only, and amusement parks and arcades, and other places of public amusement on the beaches, boardwalks, lakes and lakeshores must remain closed. Any outdoor seating, such as tables or benches, must be removed, taped off, or otherwise blocked, according to the press release. In a press release, state Sen. Declan O’Scanlon (R-Monmouth) and state Assemblywoman Serena DiMaso (R-Monmouth) said they were “pleased that Gov. Murphy has listened to our repeated calls to open our beaches in time for Memorial Day. This a critical move for shore communities as we continue to progress with reopening our state after flattening the curve. “Residents reacted positively following the (state and county) parks reopening and followed guidelines set in place. As we have stated, opening outdoor locations like beaches is a safe and common sense reopening action since residents can spread out for social distancing. “We stressed the beach opening issue continuously and loudly to the administration over the last few weeks and it appears that today the governor has listened. “This is yet another step, just one of many, that we will have to take in the coming weeks to bring our state back, both for the economic and mental health of our state and residents,” O’Scanlon and DiMaso said. In a press release, Jeff Tittel, director of the New Jersey Sierra Club, said, “It is good news that beaches are going to open and use social distancing to protect people. It has been a long winter and this is something people can celebrate. “We want to make sure everyone gets to celebrate, not only people who own homes or live in beach towns. The people of New Jersey have paid for these beaches and have the right to enjoy them. “For far too long, many towns along our coast have tried to block access to

people who do not live in their communities. The Attorney General has to make sure the beaches will be opened to all, but more importantly, we think the governor should sign an Executive Order to make sure there is public access and uphold the Public Trust Doctrine. “Towns like Long Branch, Avalon, Deal, Loch Arbour and others have historically tried to block access. We are concerned they will use the pandemic as an
excuse, but the state cannot let them get away with it. They want our money to fix or maintain their beaches, but they don’t want us. “We have been fighting this battle for over 40 years and we will keep fighting to make sure our beaches are accessible for everyone. The beaches of New Jersey belong to everyone, and everyone should be able to enjoy them with proper social distancing,” Tittel said.

Hummingbirds are the glittering jewels of the sky
T
his time of year, New Jersey is popping with color from blooming flowers and shrubs and beautiful songbirds. One of the brightest is the rubythroated hummingbird, which returns to the Garden State each spring to breed and raise young. These tiny birds – weighing only a little more than a nickel – are the only hummingbirds native to New Jersey. They spend winters in Mexico and Central America and fly north in the spring to breed, the males arriving ahead of the females. Their arrival coincides with the emergence of insects and flowering wildflowers and shrubs. Males have bright emerald green feathers and an iridescent red throat patch that flashes in the sunlight. Females and juveniles don’t have the ruby throat patch and their green coloring is more subdued. The speed of the hummingbirds’ flight and their ability to hover make them fascinating to observe. If you are outside enjoying the fresh air and warm weather, you might first notice a hummingbird buzzing past in a blur, like a super-fast bumblebee. If you are lucky, it might pause to sip nectar from a flower or perch on a slim tree branch. Newcomers to bird-watching should be sure not to confuse hummingbirds with day-flying clearwing sphinx moths, which look like little fuzzy flying lobsters and are also known as hummingbird moths. In the spring, male hummingbirds put on acrobatic aerial displays to attract females. Their maneuvers include repeatedly

By mid-August, most males will begin their southward migration and females and juveniles will follow a few weeks later. The ruby-throated hummingbird population has probably increased over the last 50 years due to the abandonment of farmlands, the overall increase in thickets and shrubby habitats, and the prevalence of feeders. However, dangerous agricultural insecticides pose a threat in certain localities. If you are really into hummingbird watching, share your observations. Each year, thousands of citizen scientists track migrations, which helps researchers determine whether patterns are shifting due to climate change or other factors. One great site where you can report bird sightings is eBird, a project of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology – www.ebird.org Another excellent site is www.hummingbirds.net, a website with constantly updating maps showing the annual hummingbird migration. For more information on identifying, observing and feeding hummingbirds, visit the Cornell Lab of Ornithology website at www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/ruby-throated_hummingbird/id

Freeholders approve funding for improvements at landfill By MARK ROSMAN Managing Editor
T
he Monmouth County Board of Freeholders has adopted a bond ordinance that will fund a series of improvements at the Monmouth County Reclamation Center, Tinton Falls. Solid waste from the county’s municipalities is transported to and placed at the landfill. During a meeting on May 14, the free-
holders voted 5-0 to adopt the measure which provides for the issuance of $8 million in bonds or notes to finance the planned upgrades. A cash down payment is not required. The planned improvements at the reclamation center include, but are not limited to, the following work: rebuilding of flare C (burns off methane gas that comes from the landfill); leachate seep improvements on the west slope; installation of

wells; improvements to the leachate plant; installation of environmental high density polyethylene caps; acquisition of equipment; replacement of a scale; and removal of underground storage tanks. The period of usefulness for the improvements is 15 years. The estimated cost of the work is $8 million, which represents the initial appropriation made by the county, according to the ordinance.

of finance, previously told the freeholders the two most expensive components of the project are the improvements to the leachate plant ($3.9 million) and the installation of the polyethylene caps ($3.1 million). On May 14, Marshall said certain improvements that will be made at the landfill under the terms of this bond ordinance will eventually result in the county saving money in the cost of the reclamation center operations.

ough Hall for the meeting. During the pandemic, Mayor Thomas Fritts has been joined by Municipal Clerk Laurie Roth in the Borough Hall meeting room and the six council members have participated by telephone as Allentown’s business is conducted. The council meetings are live-streamed on Allentown’s Facebook page. The May 26 meeting will begin at 7 p.m. During a meeting on May 12, the council members introduced a bond ordinance that authorizes the issuance of $950,000 in bonds or notes for capital improvements and the acquisition of capital equipment. Allentown will make a $50,000 down payment to account for the full $1 million appropriation. Details of the planned improvements and the equipment to be purchased were not immediately available. “This bond ordinance was initially planned to be $1.5 million, but we reduced it to $1 million,� Fritts said. “It is exactly in line with what we hope to accomplish this year and into 2021.�
In other business, the council members authorized payment No. 2 to Pact Two LLC, which is constructing Allentown’s new waste water treatment infrastructure on Breza Road. The payment is for $326,830. Municipal officials said the waste water treatment plant project is continuing to advance. As of May 14, the focus was on the construction of the Integrated Fixed-Film Activated Sludge (IFAS) and sludge tanks. Pact Two was expected to pour the IFAS tank during the week of May 14. The sludge tank may be completed within the next two to three weeks, according to borough officials. Roberts Engineering Group, the borough’s engineer, remains in contact with PSE&G regarding the new electrical service. This will appear on the schedule for installation in May or June, according to municipal officials, who said Roberts Engineering was expecting to receive a formal schedule from PSE&G within the next two weeks.
NEWS BRIEFS Six Flags Great Adventure, Jackson, has announced it will soon open its safari adventure as a drive-through experience. The announcement follows Gov. Phil Murphy’s executive order permitting drive-through events that implement social distancing guidelines. Great Adventure’s safari operated as a self-drive-through experience from 1974 through 2012. Since 2013, Great Adventure has offered guided truck tours of the safari. Returning to a stand-alone, drive-through format will enable guests to enjoy the safari’s 1,200 exotic animals from the privacy and safety of their own vehicle, while allowing for proper social distancing. The theme park is finalizing new safety procedures to protect guests, team members and animals, according to a press release. To prevent overcrowding, the safari experience will require advance registration using Six Flags’ new online reservation system. Once the opening date is confirmed, the reservation system will be activated to allow members, season pass holders and single-day ticket holders to make reservations at www.sixflags.com/reserve All tickets must be purchased online and in advance. Sales will not be available at the gate and guests without advance reservations will not be allowed to enter. Per state, local and federal guidelines regarding COVID-19, the theme park and water park will remain closed until further notice, according to the press release.

Tony-Winning Actor Daveed Diggs Headlines TNT’s ‘Snowpiercer’ By Jeff Pfeiffer
W
ith the fearful, apocalyptic feelings associated with today’s coronavirus pandemic, it at first might not seem like the ideal time to premiere a series like TNT’s Snowpiercer (premiering Sunday), a dystopian sci-fi thriller set in a devastated postapocalyptic world. But with movies like Contagion and Outbreak being some of the moststreamed movies by viewers these days, there seems to be a cathartic release, and some hope, to be found in watching fictional characters fight against dire situations, as is the case with Snowpiercer. “I think art is useful in a few different ways,” offers Daveed Diggs, the Tonywinning star of Hamilton who headlines Snowpiercer and thinks the series has a vital place, especially now. “One of those ways,” he continues, “is
that, particularly with science fiction, if we use it as allegory for [our real world], it allows us to externalize it a little bit so that we can comment on it, so that we can have conversations that don’t feel as personal. But we can still talk about the things that are going on in our world. That’s one of the great functions of science fiction. “The other [thing] about Snowpiercer,” Diggs adds, “is it’s actually really fun. … There’s a ton of really propulsive storytelling.” Based on a 1982 graphic novel and series producer Bong Joon Ho’s cult 2013 film adaptation, Snowpiercer is set seven years after Earth has become a frozen wasteland. The gigantic Snowpiercer train has been created to house the remnants of humanity — or at least those privileged enough to be allowed aboard — and now perpetually circles the globe. Those on the train also include the less privileged who managed to fight their way
onboard before it departed, and who now spend their lives locked in the train’s Tail, far away from those enjoying life in First Class. When we meet Diggs’ character, Andre Layton, he is among those in the Tail. In his former life, Andre was a homicide detective. Now, as apparently the last surviving person with such skills, he is brought uptrain by the leaders of the Snowpiercer to help investigate a murder.
While Andre is “a staunch supporter of the Tail,” according to Diggs, and does not want to leave the others behind, he is not given much choice by those at the front of the Snowpiercer. As a major character itself, more of the Snowpiercer is also slowly uncovered as Andre discovers other parts of the train during his investigation. And it’s not just the detective who is impressed as he explores this wider world — Diggs, too, was amazed at what the series’ set designers kept coming up with. “Oh, man,” recalls the actor. “The train keeps revealing itself. It’s pretty incredible, really, as an actor, because the production design is kind of fantastic. So, you would walk into these spaces just like, ‘How did you do this?’ … It felt like every week I would show up and see new cars. I mean, to the point where they kept having to add more stages.” While Season 1 of Snowpiercer was completed before the pandemic shut down many TV productions, filming on the second season was suspended. But Diggs says, “We were almost done, so I’m not super worried about [finishing Season 2].” In the meantime, he assures viewers that Season 1 offers “great action sequences, and espionage and mystery. I do think it will be enjoyable for folks. Also, we may be inside for quite a while. You’re going to want to watch everything at this point.”
Is there more life for Ricky Gervais’ ‘After Life?’ Question: After Life is the best series on television, but this second season ended like a series finale. Please tell me there will be more of After Life. —Carolyn Matt Roush: I wish I could, because my fondness for this poignant dramedy is nearly as enthusiastic as yours, but as of now, Netflix hasn’t renewed the series. And the history of Ricky Gervais comedies (which generally last only two seasons) might suggest this could be it — although in a recent Q&A on Twitter, he expressed a desire to continue with a third season, so let’s hope that happens. Even should After Life not have a longer shelf life, I agree with your reaction that the end of the current season ended on a hopeful enough note that I feel good where we left these characters. Question: Fargo was scheduled to start
on FX April 19. I can’t find it. Did something pre-empt it? —John T Matt Roush: That “something” would be the pandemic, which shut down production on the fourth season before the final episodes could be filmed. With no guarantee of when the series could be completed, thus leaving viewers hanging, FX decided to postpone Fargo until business could resume. I’m expecting the long wait to be worth it, though it’s obviously a disappointment not to have it back as a spring treat.

PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN
(Never known to fail). O most Beautiful Flower of Mt. Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God. Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh Star of the Sea, help me, and show me herein You are my Mother. Oh Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech You from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity (make request). There are none that can withstand Your power. O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee (3 times). Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands (3 times). Say this prayer for three consecutive days. You must publish it, and it will be granted to You.

Millstone officials: Vandals will be made to pay for damage at park By MATTHEW SOCKOL Staff Writer
MILLSTONE – Several suspects have been identified following a recent incident of vandalism at Millstone Park, a recreation facility that is being developed on Red Valley Road, Millstone Township. During the Township Committee’s May 6 meeting, Business Administrator Kevin Abernethy discussed the vandalism that took place at the park the previous week. “Unfortunately, damage has been oc-
curring, including a light pole that was knocked down, damage to the parking lot and damage to a field (caused) by reckless individuals who should not be there,” Abernethy said. “With the security cameras we have, we are catching (those responsible) and things will be addressed.” Abernethy said the individuals who caused the damage were driving pick-up trucks, motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles on the fields. Damage to the parking lot was caused by individuals performing “doughnuts”
with their vehicles and the street light was knocked down as a result of the off-road driving. Several suspects have been identified, according to Abernethy. As of May 12, charges had not be filed, but are anticipated. No information about the suspects was provided by municipal officials. In discussing the incident, Mayor Fiore Masci said, “Every one of us (on the Township Committee) is committed to making sure our parks remain beautiful and remain the way they should be. … If anybody

thinks they are going to come, take their vehicles and destroy our property, you have another think coming.” Abernethy, Masci and Committeeman Gary Dorfman noted there are cameras in place at the park that record what people are doing. “People have gone in, behaved inappropriately, done damage and they are seen,” Dorfman said. “They are going to be made to make what was damaged correct and (pay) restitution. “The word should be passed among those who do wrong that you are going to be caught. You are going to be caught on film, you are going to be made to make it right and frankly, you could become very embarrassed about it. “So please conduct yourself accordingly in parks that are open when they are open. Respect those parks that are closed when they are closed, and certainly don’t do damage or senseless vandalism because there is no purpose to it. “It’s disrespectful to yourself, it’s disrespectful to your family, it’s disrespectful to your neighbors and fellow residents of Millstone. It doesn’t serve any purpose,” Dorfman said.
