LAS VEGAS (AP) – A new Nevada law will expand the state’s clean-air law that restricts smoking to also prohibit use of vaping products and electronic cigarettes in most public places and indoor places of employment.
The Southern Nevada Health District says the new law to provide protection against secondhand aerosol was enacted during the 2019 legislative session and takes effect Wednesday. Places where use of vaping products and electronic cigarettes will no longer be allowed will include child care facilities, theaters, arcades, malls, restaurants and bars where minors aren’t prohibited.
Places where use of tobacco products, electronic cigarettes, or vaping products will be allowed will include areas of casinos and stand-alone bars where minors are prohibited as well as retail tobacco stores.
