FAQs about IEQp2 :

Our outside smoking area is located less than 25 feet from an emergency exit. Is this okay since that door is rarely (if ever) used?

EBOM-2009 IEQp2:Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS) Control

Exterior Signage - LEED Online IEQp2 v06

The LEED Online form v06 of this prerequisite asks the user to select either: "smoking is prohibited on the project site" or "smoking is prohibited within 25 feet of entries, outdoor air intakes, and operable windows". Does this means a change in the requirements? Would it be acceptable to have a simpler sign saying "SMOKING IS PROHIBITED WITHIN THIS SITE" instead of the longer "Smoking is prohibited within 25 feet (8 meters) of entries, outdoor air intakes and operable windows"?

From USGBC Thank you for contacting us regarding signage requirements for LEED EBOM v2009 IEQp2 Environmental Tobacco Smoke control. Yes, it is permissible for signage to state "Smoking is prohibited on this site." Signage is required to communicate a compliant exterior smoking policy. As such, it is acceptable for the signage to: (a) allow smoking in designated areas (i.e., areas not within 25 feet/8 meters of entries, outdoor air intakes, and operable windows), (b) prohibit smoking in designated areas (i.e., areas within 25 feet/8 meters of entries, outdoor air intakes, and operable windows), or (c) prohibit smoking on the entire property.
