Amends the definition of an indoor area in the public health law.

This bill amends the public health law to redefine "indoor area" as any area with a full or partial roof covering, including areas with a roof or ceiling in place, which may be fixed or movable. The definition specifies that the total actual area of the wall surfaces must exceed seventy-five percent of the total notional wall area, and the area must allow the free flow of air without mechanical ventilation. The commissioner may enforce a lower percentage, not below fifty percent, to protect public health.
