SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Preventing Our Kids From Inhaling 
Deadly Smoke (PRO-KIDS) Act of 1993''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) environmental tobacco smoke comes from secondhand smoke 
        exhaled by smokers and sidestream smoke emitted from the 
        burning of cigarettes, cigars, and pipes;
            (2) since citizens of the United States spend up to 90 
        percent of a day indoors, there is a significant potential for 
        exposure to environmental tobacco smoke from indoor air;
            (3) exposure to environmental tobacco smoke occurs in 
        schools, public buildings, and other indoor facilities;
            (4) recent scientific studies have concluded that exposure 
        to environmental tobacco smoke is a cause of lung cancer in 
        healthy nonsmokers and is responsible for acute and chronic 
        respiratory problems and other health impacts in sensitive 
        populations (including children);
            (5) the health risks posed by environmental tobacco smoke 
        exceed the risks posed by many environmental pollutants 
        regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency; and
            (6) according to information released by the Environmental 
        Protection Agency, environmental tobacco smoke results in a 
        loss to the economy of over $3,000,000,000 per year.

                        alternative requirement under the policy) that

                        establish and make a good-faith effort to

                        alternative requirement under the policy) that 
                        will protect children from exposure to 
                        environmental tobacco smoke to the same degree

                provide children's services pursuant to a collective 
                bargaining agreement that--
                            (i) took effect before the date of 
                        enactment of this Act; and

        the amount be in excess of the amount of Federal funds received 
        by the person for the fiscal year in which the violation 
        occurred for the provision of children's services.
            (B) Each day a violation continues shall constitute a 
        separate violation.
            (2) Assessment.--A civil penalty for a violation of this 
        section shall be assessed by the head of the Federal agency 
        that provided Federal funds (including financial assistance) to

        an order made on the record after opportunity for a hearing in 
        accordance with section 554 of title 5, United States Code. 
        Before issuing the order, the head of the Federal agency (or 
        the appropriate official) shall--
                    (A) give written notice to the person to be 
                assessed a civil penalty under the order of the 
                proposal to issue the order; and
                    (B) provide the person an opportunity to request,

                notice, a hearing on the order.
            (3) Amount of civil penalty.--In determining the amount of 
        a civil penalty under this subsection, the head of the Federal 
        agency (or the appropriate official) shall take into account--
                    (A) the nature, circumstances, extent, and gravity 
                of the violation;
                    (B) with respect to the violator, the ability to 
                pay, the effect of the penalty on the ability to 
                continue operation, any prior history of the same kind 
                of violation, the degree of culpability, and a 
                demonstration of willingness to comply with the 
                requirements of this Act; and
                    (C) such other matters as justice may require.
            (4) Modification.--The head of the Federal agency (or the 
        appropriate official) may compromise, modify, or remit, with or 
        without conditions, any civil penalty that may be imposed under 
        this subsection. The amount of the penalty as finally 
        determined or agreed upon in compromise may be deducted from

        with the United States Court of Appeals for the District of 
        Columbia Circuit or for any other circuit in which the person 
        resides or transacts business. The petition may only be filed 
        during the 30-day period beginning on the date of issuance of 
        the order making the assessment.
            (6) Failure to pay.--If a person fails to pay an assessment 
        of a civil penalty--
                    (A) after the order making the assessment has 
                become a final order and without filing a petition for 
                judicial review in accordance with paragraph (5); or
                    (B) after a court has entered a final judgment in 
                favor of the head of the Federal agency (or appropriate 
                official),
        the Attorney General shall recover the amount assessed (plus 
        interest at currently prevailing rates from the last day of the 
        30-day period referred to in paragraph (5) or the date of the 
        final judgment, as the case may be) in an action brought in an 
        appropriate district court of the United States. In the action,
