Kansas Radon Licensing Bill

[James H. Bushart]

I think the hardware store kits will be outlawed. From what I hear, the labs providing results will need to be accredited and pay their dues to the state along with the testers and mitigators.

This law does nothing at all for the consumer in that it does not forbid the tester from being the mitigator. There is no way to check a house after the fact, once the mitigation system is installed, to see if there was actually radon present.

The law gives a free pass to scammers.....but then, Kansas seems to have a tradition established in that regard, already. Right, Mr. Barnes?

Bruce Snead over at Kansas State University in ManHattan, KS has been working on this bill for several years with a Senator I believe that is from Emporia, KS. To call Bruce @ KSU his number is (785) 532-4992 and email address is bsnead@ksu.edu

Very estute individual...........

So Buck just where are getting this news.

There is no way a mitigatory is going to stand still for all the reg's and not make tester included also. The only persons allowed to test for radon will be the agents and the home seller

Laws are only created to benefit the ones who write and push them into law. This is just another example of how the government is regulating the lives of consumers, and filling the pockets of the special interest groups and companies. When in the heck is government going to serve the people?
