The Midwest Universities Radon Consortium (MURC) is one of three U.S. EPA established Regional Radon Training Centers (RRTCs) founded in 1988. The mission of the RRTCs is to provide training to public officials, nonprofit and private firms, and the public regarding the health risks posed by radon and to demonstrate methods of radon measurement and mitigation in residential, educational, and other environments. MURC collaborates with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), states, partner RRTCs, industry, National Radon Safety Board (NRSB), and the National Radon Proficiency Program (NRPP) to create a network of programs and outreach materials for our clients and to offer the highest quality training in radon measurement, mitigation, and indoor air quality.
MURC is located at and managed by the University of Minnesota. Courses are offered in Canada, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Kansas State University is a member of MURC and offers courses in Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska.
