Washington
State law prohibits smoking in public buildings and in campus
vehicles. Smoking is prohibited within 25 feet of a building
entrance, exit, windows that open, ventilation intake, and other areas
through which non-smokers must traverse. Signs are posted on all
building entrances and campus vehicles.
RCW 70.160 gives the local health department jurisdiction to enforce
the state smoking regulation by first issuing a warning. A
subsequent violation is subject to a civil fine of up to $100.
PLU will take appropriate action to comply with the law on campus.
Concerns, questions and comments should be directed to the Director of Human Resource Services at 253-535-7185.
