Why is ARPC needed? To support a strong and vital presence representing the radon industry before state legislatures, Congress, and state and federal agencies to (1) drive awareness that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer and (2) encourage enactment of laws that reduce risk of radon exposure. How does supporting ARPC help the industry? The resultant policies drive demand for measurement and mitigation – supporting radon professionals saving lives. What has ARPC accomplished? ARPC has delivered funding for the SIRG program, assisted chapters enacting state laws to regulate through certification and warn prospective home buyers and tenants about radon, and secured meetings with key policymakers to build long-term support for meaningful state policies for credentialing radon professionals, testing buildings, notifying prospective home buyers and tenants, and adopting effective code requirements in new buildings.
