An Act amending the act of July 9, 1987 (P.L.238, No.43), known as the Radon Certification Act, further providing for confidentiality of data.
This bill amends Pennsylvania's Radon Certification Act to strengthen confidentiality protections for data collected during radon testing and remediation. It clarifies that information about radon levels in nonpublic properties (including homes) and personal details gathered under the law must remain confidential. The department holding this data may only share it with the current property owner or a previous owner who owned the property during the time the data was collected. This change ensures sensitive radon contamination information in residential settings is protected from public disclosure.
