Inspection时Radon测出来4.2,就比4.0大一点... 这个比较悲催,可以装个mitigation
system,但因为曾经测出大于4.0,法律规定以后resale时在seller disclosure里肯
定要disclose这房子Radon高于4.0。
这个对未来Resale Value影响多大?肯定会吓走一部分buyer吧?
另外,根据州官方网站,我买房这个Zip code大约19%的房子Radon是大于4.0的。

Radon exposure (actually radon progeny) has been linked to lung cancer in
numerous case-control studies performed in the United States, Europe and
China. There are approximately 21,000 deaths per year in the USA due to
radon-induced lung cancers.[6] One of the most comprehensive radon studies
performed in the United States by Dr. R. William Field and colleagues found
a 50% increased lung cancer risk even at the protracted exposures at the EPA
's action level of 4 pCi/L. North American and European Pooled analyses
further support these findings.[109]
A controversial epidemiological study showing decreased cancer risk vs.
radon domestic exposure (5 pCi/L ≈ 200 Bq/m3).[110] This study lacks
individual level controls for smoking and radon exposure, and therefore
lacks statistical power to draw definitive conclusions. Because of this the
error bars (which simply reflect the raw data variability) are probably too
small.[111] Among other expert panels, the WHO's International Agency for
Research on Cancer concluded that these analyses "can be rejected."[112]
Most models of residential radon exposure are based on studies of miners,
and direct estimates of the risks posed to homeowners would be more
desirable.[106] Nonetheless, because of the difficulties of measuring the
risk of radon relative to other contributors—namely smoking—models of
their effect have often made use of them.
Radon has been considered the second leading cause of lung cancer and
leading environmental cause of cancer mortality by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency.[113] Others have reached similar
conclusions for the United Kingdom[106] and France.[114] Radon exposure in
homes and offices may arise from certain subsurface rock formations, and
also from certain building materials (e.g., some granites). The greatest
risk of radon exposure arises in buildings that are airtight, insufficiently
ventilated, and have foundation leaks that allow air from the soil into
basements and dwelling rooms.

因为mitigation system装了以后会降到一个很低的值,一般小于1的。比没装system的
合格房子还低。
坏处是麻烦吧,那个system得一直转,有噪音,万一坏了还得修,而且心里不踏实得经
常测测radon。
然后所有这些坏处最终也会体现在resale上吧

The Radon Threat Is Still With Us
By BILL FIELD
Published: March 28, 2012
“I AM really sorry to tell you this, but you have less than a 50 percent
chance of living for one year and about a 15 percent chance of living for
five years.”
This gloomy prognosis is delivered each year to thousands of Americans who
have been given a diagnosis of lung cancer caused by exposure to the
radioactive gas radon.
Since the late 1980s, a half million Americans have died from radon-induced
lung cancer, including a significant number who never smoked a day in their
lives.
Extended exposure, even well below the Environmental Protection’s Agency’s
“Radon Action Level” of four picocuries per liter of air, causes
approximately 21,000 lung cancer deaths each year in the United States.
.....
Who dropped the ball? That was the question asked in 2010 by Dr. Margaret
Kripke, one of the members of the President’s Cancer Panel, after hearing
testimony on the dangers of radon exposure. The answer is primarily the E.P.
A.
The risk of lung cancer is orders of magnitude higher for radon than the
risk caused by other cancer-causing agents the E.P.A. regulates. The agency
’s own Office of Inspector General found in 2008 that the E.P.A. failed
over a 20-year period to notify Congress that it was not reaching the goals
set by lawmakers to reduce indoor radon exposure and that the E.P.A. never
seriously considered an alternative approach.
Now the agency has decided to throw in the towel. The E.P.A.’s proposed
2013 budget would eliminate all money to help states promote radon awareness
, oversee professional testing and reduce the risks of exposure.

机, 完全可以降到合格指标. 一般的买主都明白这个问题, 不会影响今后卖房的价

elevated radon is quite normal in Chicago area. The seller just needs to
install a fan in his basement to let the air flow out. Radon is heavier and
needs many many years to cumulate to high level above 4.0 in some low level
place like basement. It would be 0.* after installing the mitigation system.
You need to worry more about your neighbors whether they have problematic
kids. That is much harder problem to solve if you are unlucky to have a bad
new neighbor. just my 2 cents.

What is a safe level of radon gas?
This is the simpler of the two questions. A safe level of radon gas is no
radon gas. Radon gas is a carcinogen which causes lung cancer. The US EPA
has put it plainly, stating, "Any radon exposure has some risk of causing
lung cancer. The lower the radon level in your home, the lower your family's
risk of lung cancer." The average person receives a higher dose of
radiation from the radon levels in their home than from their combined
exposure to all other radiation sources, natural or man-made.
Radon gas is a naturally-occurring byproduct of the radioactive decay of
Uranium in the soil. Depending on your geographic location, the radon levels
of the air you breathe outside of your home may be as high as 0.75 pCi/L.
The national average of outside radon levels is 0.4 pCi/L and it is
estimated by the National Academy of Sciences that outdoor radon levels
cause approximately 800 of the 21,000 radon induced lung cancer deaths in
the US each year.
Your risk of lung cancer increases substantially with exposure to higher
radon levels. Lung cancer risk rises 16% per 2.7 pCi/L increase in radon
exposure. (World Health Organization, 2009)
Studies show that radon is the primary cause of lung cancer among people who
have never smoked. However, the absolute numbers of radon-induced lung
cancers are much larger in people who smoke, or who have smoked in the past,
due to a strong combined effect of smoking and radon.
What is an acceptable level of radon gas?
Radon Act 51 passed by Congress set the natural outdoor level of radon gas (
0.4 pCi/L) as the target radon level for indoor radon levels.
Unfortunately two-thirds of all homes exceed this level. The US EPA was
tasked with setting practical guidelines and recommendations for the nation.
To this end, the US EPA has set an action level of 4 pCi/L. At or above
this level of radon, the EPA recommends you take corrective measures to
reduce your exposure to radon gas.
This does not imply that a level below 4.0 pCi/L is considered acceptable,
as stated in the BEIR VI study. It is estimated that a reduction of radon
levels to below 2 pCi/L nationwide would likely reduce the yearly lung
cancer deaths attributed to radon by 50%.
However, even with an action level of 2.0 pCi/L, the cancer risk presented
by radon gas is still hundreds of times greater than the risks allowed for
carcinogens in our food and water.

Has your local elementary, middle school or high school been tested for
radon?
On August 13, 2009, Public Act 96-0417 was signed. This Act recommends,
requires and/or authorizes the following action with regard to radon and
schools in Illinois:
1. Recommends all Illinois school districts test their school buildings
every five years.
2. Requires Illinois schools that do test for radon to report the results
to the State Board of Education. The State Board of Education will then
report radon test data bi-annually to the General Assembly. This data will
be made public.
3. Authorizes the Illinois Emergency Management Association to allow
school staff to test their own buildings if they have been properly trained.
4. *** All new construction school buildings in Illinois should be
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
built with radon-resistant new construction techniques.***

丽姐,
我知道,板上很多房地产经纪人不喜欢我,有的甚至恨我。我不知道为什么.
其实,我尊重他们,他们是专业人士,有州政府给予他们执照. 很多在其他领域的中国
人没有执照.
小弟不知道一件事,请教丽姐,
"完全可以降到合格指标", 什么是"合格指标" ? 房地产经纪人协会设置 Radon "合格
指标"?
先感谢您。你会赢得我的尊重超越执照.

Radon exposure (actually radon progeny) has been linked to lung cancer in
numerous case-control studies performed in the United States, Europe and
China. There are approximately 21,000 deaths per year in the USA due to
radon-induced lung cancers.[6] One of the most comprehensive radon studies
performed in the United States by Dr. R. William Field and colleagues found
a 50% increased lung cancer risk even at the protracted exposures at the EPA
's action level of 4 pCi/L. North American and European Pooled analyses
further support these findings.[109]
A controversial epidemiological study showing decreased cancer risk vs.
radon domestic exposure (5 pCi/L ≈ 200 Bq/m3).[110] This study lacks
individual level controls for smoking and radon exposure, and therefore
lacks statistical power to draw definitive conclusions. Because of this the
error bars (which simply reflect the raw data variability) are probably too
small.[111] Among other expert panels, the WHO's International Agency for
Research on Cancer concluded that these analyses "can be rejected."[112]
Most models of residential radon exposure are based on studies of miners,
and direct estimates of the risks posed to homeowners would be more
desirable.[106] Nonetheless, because of the difficulties of measuring the
risk of radon relative to other contributors—namely smoking—models of
their effect have often made use of them.
Radon has been considered the second leading cause of lung cancer and
leading environmental cause of cancer mortality by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency.[113] Others have reached similar
conclusions for the United Kingdom[106] and France.[114] Radon exposure in
homes and offices may arise from certain subsurface rock formations, and
also from certain building materials (e.g., some granites). The greatest
risk of radon exposure arises in buildings that are airtight, insufficiently
ventilated, and have foundation leaks that allow air from the soil into
basements and dwelling rooms.

The Radon Threat Is Still With Us
By BILL FIELD
Published: March 28, 2012
*** “I AM really sorry to tell you this, but you have less than a 50
percent
chance of living for one year and about a 15 percent chance of living for
five years.” ***
This gloomy prognosis is delivered each year to thousands of Americans who
have been given a diagnosis of lung cancer caused by exposure to the
radioactive gas radon.
Since the late 1980s, a half million Americans have died from radon-induced
lung cancer, including a significant number who never smoked a day in their
lives.
Extended exposure, even well below the Environmental Protection’s Agency’s
“Radon Action Level” of four picocuries per liter of air, causes
approximately 21,000 lung cancer deaths each year in the United States.
.....
Who dropped the ball? That was the question asked in 2010 by Dr. Margaret
Kripke, one of the members of the President’s Cancer Panel, after hearing
testimony on the dangers of radon exposure. The answer is primarily the E.P.
A.
The risk of lung cancer is orders of magnitude higher for radon than the
risk caused by other cancer-causing agents the E.P.A. regulates. The agency
’s own Office of Inspector General found in 2008 that the E.P.A. failed
over a 20-year period to notify Congress that it was not reaching the goals
set by lawmakers to reduce indoor radon exposure and that the E.P.A. never
seriously considered an alternative approach.
Now the agency has decided to throw in the towel. The E.P.A.’s proposed
2013 budget would eliminate all money to help states promote radon awareness
, oversee professional testing and reduce the risks of exposure.

elevated radon is quite normal in Chicago area. The seller just needs to
install a fan in his basement to let the air flow out. Radon is heavier and
needs many many years to cumulate to high level above 4.0 in some low level
place like basement. It would be 0.* after installing the mitigation system.
You need to worry more about your neighbors whether they have problematic
kids. That is much harder problem to solve if you are unlucky to have a bad
new neighbor. just my 2 cents.

What is a safe level of radon gas?
This is the simpler of the two questions. A safe level of radon gas is no
radon gas. Radon gas is a carcinogen which causes lung cancer. The US EPA
has put it plainly, stating, "Any radon exposure has some risk of causing
lung cancer. The lower the radon level in your home, the lower your family's
risk of lung cancer." The average person receives a higher dose of
radiation from the radon levels in their home than from their combined
exposure to all other radiation sources, natural or man-made.
Radon gas is a naturally-occurring byproduct of the radioactive decay of
Uranium in the soil. Depending on your geographic location, the radon levels
of the air you breathe outside of your home may be as high as 0.75 pCi/L.
The national average of outside radon levels is 0.4 pCi/L and it is
estimated by the National Academy of Sciences that outdoor radon levels
cause approximately 800 of the 21,000 radon induced lung cancer deaths in
the US each year.
Your risk of lung cancer increases substantially with exposure to higher
radon levels. Lung cancer risk rises 16% per 2.7 pCi/L increase in radon
exposure. (World Health Organization, 2009)
Studies show that radon is the primary cause of lung cancer among people who
have never smoked. However, the absolute numbers of radon-induced lung
cancers are much larger in people who smoke, or who have smoked in the past,
due to a strong combined effect of smoking and radon.
What is an acceptable level of radon gas?
Radon Act 51 passed by Congress set the natural outdoor level of radon gas (
0.4 pCi/L) as the target radon level for indoor radon levels.
Unfortunately two-thirds of all homes exceed this level. The US EPA was
tasked with setting practical guidelines and recommendations for the nation.
To this end, the US EPA has set an action level of 4 pCi/L. At or above
this level of radon, the EPA recommends you take corrective measures to
reduce your exposure to radon gas.
This does not imply that a level below 4.0 pCi/L is considered acceptable,
as stated in the BEIR VI study. It is estimated that a reduction of radon
levels to below 2 pCi/L nationwide would likely reduce the yearly lung
cancer deaths attributed to radon by 50%.
However, even with an action level of 2.0 pCi/L, the cancer risk presented
by radon gas is still hundreds of times greater than the risks allowed for
carcinogens in our food and water.

很多房子都是radon超标。装一个migitation 就可以了。不过装mitigation需要seal
sump pump,最好再自己加一个backup sump pump。不加也凑合。

Has your local elementary, middle school or high school been tested for
radon?
On August 13, 2009, Public Act 96-0417 was signed. This Act recommends,
requires and/or authorizes the following action with regard to radon and
schools in Illinois:
1. Recommends all Illinois school districts test their school buildings
every five years.
2. Requires Illinois schools that do test for radon to report the results
to the State Board of Education. The State Board of Education will then
report radon test data bi-annually to the General Assembly. This data will
be made public.
3. Authorizes the Illinois Emergency Management Association to allow
school staff to test their own buildings if they have been properly trained.
4. *** All new construction school buildings in Illinois should be
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
built with radon-resistant new construction techniques.***

Depending on your geographic location, the radon levels
of the air you breathe outside of your home may be as high as 0.75 pCi/L.
The national average of outside radon levels is 0.4 pCi/L and it is
estimated by the National Academy of Sciences that outdoor radon levels
cause approximately 800 of the 21,000 radon induced lung cancer deaths in
the US each year.
......
Radon Act 51 passed by Congress set the natural outdoor level of radon gas (
0.4 pCi/L) as the target radon level for indoor radon levels.
--------------
In 1986 and again in 1988, Congress directed the E.P.A. to reduce the public
’s exposure to radon. No substantial progress has been made. Because
builders chose to continue to build homes without radon-resistant features
faster than radon was being reduced in existing homes, millions of
additional homes built since 1990 have been added to the tens of millions
already in need of radon reduction.
..........
Who dropped the ball? That was the question asked in 2010 by Dr. Margaret
Kripke, one of the members of the President’s Cancer Panel, ....
The agency’s own Office of Inspector General found in 2008 that the E.P.A.
failed over a 20-year period to notify Congress that it was not reaching the
goals set by lawmakers to reduce indoor radon exposure and that the E.P.A.
never seriously considered an alternative approach.
Now the agency has decided to throw in the towel. The E.P.A.’s proposed
2013 budget would eliminate all money to help states promote radon awareness
, oversee professional testing and reduce the risks of exposure.

"New Law Requires Radon Testing in Day Care Centers"
January is Radon Action Month
http://www.illinois.gov/ready/press/pages/130103.aspx
SPRINGFIELD – Parents of children in day care will be better informed about
levels of radon in their child’s facility under a new law that took effect
Jan. 1, 2013. Licensed day care centers and day care homes are now
required to test for the radioactive gas, and beginning Jan. 1, 2014, day
care centers will need to show proof the facility has been tested for radon
within the last three years as part of the initial application or license
renewal process.

"It could be 20 years from now when our children are adults and they come
down with lung cancer or other health effects," Cooper said.
According to the EPA, radon problems in schools are often remedied by
increasing ventilation, however, in some cases that can actually make the
existing problem even worse.

I think it is really sad (being a parent from this district) that this is
being made out to be a negative on our great school district. They are not
required by law to test and they do it every year anyway to make sure our
kids are safe. This school district will do whatever is needed to make it
safe for the students and staff. Why would you even file a lawsuit, they
have done nothing to endanger the students. As usual everyone is quick to
judge and jump on the band wagon!
