What is NOT to be designated as resident smoking areas?

1. Dining and recreation rooms, resident rooms, and any area/room where oxygen is stored

2. Outdoor patios and gardens

3. Designated smoking rooms

4. Enclosed smoking areas with ventilation

The correct answer is: Dining and recreation rooms, resident rooms, and any area/room where oxygen is stored

Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they are all acceptable areas/rooms for designating as resident smoking areas. B is an outdoor area, C is a designated room specifically for smoking, and D is an enclosed area with ventilation. However, option A is incorrect because it includes dining and recreation rooms, resident rooms, and any area/room where oxygen is stored, which should NOT be designated as resident smoking areas due to health and safety concerns. Smoking in these areas can be a fire hazard and can also negatively impact the health of non-smokers who may be present in these areas. Therefore, option A is the correct answer as it includes areas that should not be designated for smoking.
