U.S. EPA Radon Gas
Radon is a cancer-causing,
radioactive gas.
You can't see radon. And you can't
smell it or taste it. But it may be a problem in your home.
Radon is estimated to cause many
thousands of deaths each year. That's because when you breathe air
containing radon, you can get lung cancer. In fact, the Surgeon
General has warned that radon is the second leading cause of lung
cancer in the United States today. Only smoking causes more lung
cancer deaths. If you smoke and your home has high radon levels,
your risk of lung cancer is especially high.
Radon can be found all over the
U.S.
Radon comes from the natural
(radioactive) breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water and gets
into the air you breathe. Radon can be found all over the U.S. It can
get into any type of building - homes, offices, and schools - and
result in a high indoor radon level. But you and your family are most
likely to get your greatest exposure at home, where you spend most of
your time.

U.S. EPA Radon in Drinking Water
Radon is a naturally-occurring radioactive
gas that may cause cancer, and may be found in drinking water and indoor
air. Some people who are exposed to radon in drinking water may have
increased risk of getting cancer over the course of their lifetime,
especially lung cancer. Radon in soil under homes is the biggest source of
radon in indoor air, and presents a greater risk of lung cancer than radon
in drinking water. As required by the Safe Drinking Water Act, EPA has
developed a
proposed regulation to reduce radon in drinking water that has a
multimedia mitigation option to reduce radon in indoor air.
