The United States Environmental Protection Agency has named January as National Radon Action Month.
Osceola resident Mark Forsstrom tested his own home nearly a year ago and has taken steps since then to reduce his house's radon level. Forsstrom purchased a radon testing kit from a hardware store after hearing about radon problems in the Clarke County area. The high test results alerted him that his house's radon level was nearly eight times the EPA's 4 pCi/L action level.
