Operative words

all persons in all the aforementioned county(s) are ordered to comply:... [venues of 500 or] more individuals must submit a "plan for reopening" to the applicable Local Public Health Department BEFORE reopening... All plans must be approved by the Local Public Health Department... Failure to comply with this Order will result in legal action for enforcement by civil and/or criminal remedies.

Penalty

'legal action for enforcement by civil and/or criminal remedies'; law enforcement and local health personnel required to aid enforcement under 173 NAC 6 and § 71-502

What it required

Even after the percentage caps were removed on January 30, 2021, the green-phase orders kept binding commands in force to May 24, 2021: plan submission and approval before reopening for venues of 500 (indoor) or 1,000 (outdoor), isolation and quarantine of exposed persons, congregate-housing employer signage and screening ('must, at minimum'), and the enforcement clause.
