This is the requirement for the Indoor Environmental Quality prerequisite Environmental Tobacco Smoke Control, which applies to all LEED BD+C rating systems. The intent is to prevent or minimize exposure of building occupants, indoor surfaces, and ventilation air distribution systems to environmental tobacco smoke. The no-smoking signage must explicitly state the 25 ft. (8 m) limit and communicate the no-smoking policy to occupants.

I thought it was 10 ft. from all entrances, but now I'm second-guessing myself. Maybe it's just the main entrance?

I keep mixing up the distances. Was it 10 ft. or 25 ft.? I wish I could remember the exact wording from the study materials.

I remember practicing a question about no-smoking signage, and I feel like it was 25 ft. from all entrances. That seems like a reasonable distance.

I think the signage needs to be within 10 ft. of the main entrances, but I'm not entirely sure if it's just the main ones or all entrances.

Wait, I'm confused. Is it 10 ft. or 25 ft.? And does it have to be all entrances or just the main entrance(s)? I better re-read this question carefully before answering.

Okay, I've got this. The key is to focus on the distance requirements from building entrances. I'm pretty confident that the correct answer is within 10 ft. (3 m) of all building entrances.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know there are regulations around no-smoking signage, but I can't quite recall the specifics. I'll have to think it through step-by-step.

Wait, we have buildings that allow smoking? I thought that was, like, illegal or something. Learn something new every day!

I'll go with C. 25 ft seems like a reasonable distance to cover the whole building perimeter. Can't be too cautious when it comes to fire hazards!
