TACOMA, Wash. (AP) — The Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department is considering a ban on battery-powered electronic cigarettes that deliver nicotine without smoking.

The News Tribune reports that regulations proposed Wednesday would ban e-smoking — or “vaping” — in the same public places where the use of real cigarettes and cigars are prohibited by state law. King County adopted such a ban in January.

The Tacoma-Pierce County Health Board will consider the ban at its June 1 meeting.
