1 Conference of Radiation Control Program Directors
A Partnership Dedicated to Radiation Protection National Conference of State Legislators Patrick I Daniels, Chairperson E25 Committee on Radon

2 National Conference of State Legislatures
National Radon Action Plan CRCPD continues to work in support of the Allies and Federal Leaders in Action to Reduce Radon group in support of the effort to expand on the Federal Radon Action Plan and expand on the Radon Leaders Savings Lives work to engage nonprofit and industry allies to lead a strategic effort to amplify, leverage and build upon our joint commitments to achieve greater public health impact. As Janice stated, this effort is to broaden the scope of our risk reduction efforts. We have all seen the benefits from the Federal Radon Action Plan, specifically the increase in multi family housing measurements and mitigations brought about by HUD’s efforts and the number of State Cancer Control Plans adopting radon goals from the efforts of the CDC. Both of these have influenced not only industry but also polices in states all around the country. I would like to thank Janice and the American Lung Association for leading the efforts to develop a National Radon Action Plan. The most critical part to the success of the National Radon Action Plan is you. Yes each and every individual in this room here today. It is people like all of us, government, non-government and industry organizations to put the strategies into action. We have seen many successes by working together but, it will take all of us giving some of out time and talents to broaden the impact of the Plan in all of our states.
