Added radon testing information might be accessed via the CDC Environmental Wellness Tracking Network, an online source for regional, prompt data from Tracking Program-funded states and 6 nationwide radon screening laboratories.

Led by the American Lung Organization, the nationwide radon workgroup settled on a structure for activity aimed at integrating radon testing, radon mitigation and radon-resistant construction right into systems that regulate purchasing, funding, constructing and restoring homes and other structures.

For the last 5 years, NRAP companions have made development in the direction of this strong goal by constructing radon testing and mitigation techniques right into the systems that govern getting, funding, creating and remodeling buildings; producing motivations and financing for what radon level is considered safe threat reduction; distributing expert requirements; and elevating awareness of radon risk.

Under this Plan, leaders from throughout multiple sectors are collaborating to strategy, overview and maintain nationwide activity to prevent exposure to radon. Go To Federal Radon Activity Strategy to discover exactly how the FRAP dedications spurred a national increase in radon risk reduction.

Radon is a normally occurring radioactive gas that can enter homes from the ground and build up to dangerous levels.

EPA's Open Information Strategy specifies how EPA makes information readily available and our dedication to making sure data openness.
