Adopt the Landlord and Tenant Radon Awareness Act
LB 506 requires landlords in Nebraska to disclose radon-related information to tenants. Landlords must provide copies of radon test results showing hazards (4+ picocuries per liter) and a standardized disclosure form explaining radon risks and mitigation options at lease application or upon tenant request. Tenants can conduct their own radon tests during tenancy; if results show a hazard, they may terminate the lease without penalty (within 90 days) or pay for mitigation (with rent deductions if landlord consents). Landlords cannot withhold security deposits for radon testing or mitigation, though they may retain deposits if tenants install systems without consent. The law applies to leases signed on or after its effective date.
