Scenario A: Last year, the owner of a new restaurant in California had trouble getting customers to
comply with the state's smoking ban. The fine for a first violation is $100. A second violation
carries a fine of $200, and third and subsequent violations cost $500 each. After a third violation
within one year, a representative of California's Occupational Safety and Health Administration is
required to investigate complaints. Employers may be cited with fines up to $7,000 for violations
classified as general or serious and fines up to $70,000 for violations classified as willfully
serious. In the ban's first year in operation, the bar owner had four violations, plus a violation for a
serious offense that may or may not have been willful.
