Radon Action Month

On Tuesday, January 16 the Montgomery County Council issued a proclamation recognizing January as Radon Action Month. Councilmembers Craig Rice and Sidney Katz were the lead sponsors of the County law that requires a radon test when a single-family home is sold. “Radon is a silent killer and our residents need to know about potential dangers in their homes so they can make smart decisions to protect their families,” said Councilmember Rice, who presented the proclamation. “Being informed about radon starts by picking up, and using, a testing device.”
