The Kansas State University promoted a series of webinars on radon in May 2020, hosted by the Kansas Radon Program. In Kansas, more that 41% of the test results (or 46,000 measurements) have been equal to or in excess of the 4 pCi/l EPA recommended action level. Radon mitigation systems have been installed in more than 17,000 Kansas homes. Visit www.kansasradonprogram.org to view radon maps for all Kansas counties.

The outreach and education efforts by the Kansas State University Radon Program included these webinar topics:

· General Information and Health Effects

· Radon Measurement for Homeowners

· Radon Measurements during Real Estate Transactions Measuring Radon in Real Estate

· Radon Mitigation in Single-family Homes

· Radon Resistant New Construction (RRNC) for New Homes

Each webinar was approximately 30 minutes in duration. Webinars were provided at no cost to the public.
