Sharing with State Radon Programs.....from Chrystine Kelley, E-25 Chair, CRCPD, and Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment Radon Program Manager, chrys.kelley@state.co.us
Section 3061 of the Defense Reauthorization Act (documented on page 1520 in the conference committee report – CRPT-116Hrpt333 on Senate Bill 1790), as passed by Congress and signed into law by the President in December, includes radon requirements for privatized military housing:
- Regular testing of dwellings by persons who possess certification
- Testing procedures consistent with current national consensus standards and in compliance with Federal, State and local radon regulations
- Submission of mitigation plans for building with high radon levels
Once AARST figures how implementation will work on the ground, we will provide an update, and host a webinar if appropriate.
