West Virginia Increased Radon Awareness Statewide
In its 2024 report on successes in radon programs, EPA noted successes in education, outreach and technical support.
Specifically, EPA noted that West Virginia experienced an increase in radon awareness statewide. Over 1,000 free test kits were requested and distributed during the reporting period. This increase in awareness stemmed from the state partnering with local county health departments to provide free test kits and brochures and by placing those resources in communities with low testing rates to raise awareness about radon tools and resources.
