Designates August of each year as Radon Awareness Month; designates August 2 of each year as Radon Action Day.

SJR 47 designates August as "Radon Awareness Month" and August 2 as "Radon Action Day" in New Jersey. It aims to raise public awareness about radon - a radioactive gas that causes lung cancer - encouraging residents to test homes for radon levels and take mitigation steps. The resolution highlights that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, affects homes statewide (with most areas at moderate-to-high risk), and recommends testing every two years or after structural changes. It does not create new regulations but promotes existing DEP and Surgeon General guidelines for testing and mitigation.
