SANTA ANA (CNS)—State officials on May 7 approved Orange County’s active-use plans for its 16 percent of shoreline, reopening all of the county’s beaches a week after Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered them shut down when throngs crowded beaches in defiance of COVID-19-prompted stay-at-home orders.

Orange County’s plans mirror the same hours and restrictions in each of the cities where the county has jurisdiction.
