BILL NUMBER:S7841 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the public health law, in relation to regulating the use of electronic cigarettes in certain public areas PURPOSE: This bill bans the use of electronic cigarettes in certain indoor areas SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section one of this bill amends section 1399-n of the Public Health Law to include in the definition of "smoking" the use of electronic cigarettes or any device that vaporizes nicotine. This bill also adds the definition of "retail electronic cigarette store" to mean a retail store devoted primarily to the sale of electronic cigarettes, and in which the sale of other products is merely incidental. The sale of such other products shall be considered incidental if such sales generate less than twenty-five percent of the total annual gross sales. Section two of this bill amends section 1399-q of the Public Health Law to exempt retail electronic cigarette stores from the Clean Indoor Air Act. This bill also allows for a two day exemption for other establishments that are functioning for the primary purpose of promoting and sampling e-cigarettes.
