my guess is that those restrictions actually come from the state clean air act.

if they don't and the county/township has passed its own regulations regarding smoking, someone might win in court if they sued to make them stop enforcing those bans.

the preemption clause in the clean air act is not nearly as clear cut as the PA UFA preemption clause, though.

it's about property rights.
in this case, the preemption clause specific limits what this particular property owner (municipality or county) can do in regards to regulating the possession of firearms.

namely, they may not *in any manner* regulate the possession of firearms.
