Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Illinois Clean Indoor Air Act. Includes bars, taverns, and bowling alleys in the definition of "public place" and excludes retail tobacco stores from the definition of "public place". Defines "bar", "tavern", and "retail tobacco store". Provides that the prohibition against smoking in public places does not apply to entities licensed under the Riverboat Gambling Act, lodges or private clubs, or retail tobacco stores. Provides that the proprietor of a restaurant, bar, or tavern (now, the elected and appointed officials of the State of Illinois and of any unit of local government and of any school district, or their designee, having control over property of the State or of a unit of local government or of a school district that includes a public place and the proprietor of a structure that includes a public place) may establish a smoking area on the premises until 2 years after the effective date of the amendatory Act, at which time the restaurant, bar, or tavern must otherwise comply with the Act. Provides that any public place may have a smoking area if it is equipped with devices to render the concentration of respirable suspended particulate matter in the non-smoking area equivalent to the concentration of respirable suspended particulate matter in the ambient outdoor air for the relevant geographic area and requires the Department of Public Health to adopt rules relating to this provision. Provides that a bar or tavern that designates the entire premises as a smoking area is exempt from the smoking prohibition if the owner or operator of the bar or tavern can demonstrate to the Department that the bar or tavern has been equipped with air filtration or purification devices or similar technologies that render the concentration of respirable suspended particulate matter in the bar or tavern equivalent to the concentration of respirable suspended particulate matter in the ambient outdoor air for the relevant geographic area. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
