I need to know if I should place filter on the smoking zones' exhaust duct?
If yes, should it be HEPA filter as it is placed on the schematic diagram in the reference guide?
Thanks.

Omar,
I don't think that any specific filtration is required for a smoking zone's exhaust system for the LEED prerequisite. The requirement is for the smoking area to be exhausted directly to the outdoors without recirculation and to demonstrate sufficient isolation of the space from other areas of the building.
