The EPA, working in concert with Federal, State, and local
governments as well as
volunteer organizations, conducts many different
programs to educate Americans about the indoor radon health threat. About 1
in 15 homes has high radon levels. If you haven't tested your home, do it
now during National Radon Action Month. If you have further questions about
Radon, please call the National Radon Information Line at: 1-800-SOS-RADON
(1-800-767-7236).
