An Act promoting radon testing

This bill requires all licensed child care programs and public schools in Massachusetts to undergo regular radon testing. The Department of Public Health must create public regulations within one year covering testing schedules, acceptable radon levels, documentation, and mitigation plans for unsafe levels. These regulations will apply to all facilities under the Department of Early Education and Care's licensing. The bill does not specify funding but requires the department to develop the rules using existing appropriations.
