In its 2024 report on successes in radon programs, EPA noted successes of including radon in cancer control plans (CCPs).

Specifically, EPA noted that Michigan’s 2021-2030 CCP includes strategies for addressing radon by increasing the proportion of new single-family homes constructed with radon-reducing features from 10.4% to 11.4%. The plan also seeks to advance radon awareness through a series of workshops and seminars for builders and code officials covering radon resistant new construction (RRNC) methods. The plan seeks to facilitate collaboration with environmental, health, licensing, and cancer prevention stakeholders.
