Further, on and after March 27, 2020, Empire State Development Corporation is hereby authorized to determine which construction projects shall be essential and thereby exempt from the in-person workforce prohibition... [Insurance Law provisions] are modified to impose a moratorium on an insurer cancelling, non-renewing, or conditionally renewing any insurance policy issued to an individual or small business... for a period of 60 days, for any policyholder... facing financial hardship as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic... all in-person business restrictions will be effective until 11:59 p.m. on April 15, 2020
