FAQs about IEQp2 :

Do I have to provide a designated smoking area?

How can I prohibit smoking 25 feet from the entrance of my project when it is a zero lot line and its entrance abuts a public sidewalk?

How do you calculate the 25 ft. rule from designated smoking areas to building openings?

We have a strict no-smoking policy and local smoking laws that all our employees are familiar with. Can we skip the signage?

Does this prerequisite apply to e-cigarettes? What about marijuana?

My city has an ordinance that there is no smoking within 20' of outside doors on City property. This is a City-owned facility and that is the rule that is enforced by management. If the no smoking signs say 20 feet instead of 25 feet, will that be accepted, if I also upload a copy of the City's ordinance?

I do not think this would be accepted.

As a general rule, existing laws and ordinances only trump LEED when they are equivalent or more stringent.
