Sanchez, D., R. Dixon, AND M. Madani. FLORIDA RADON RESEARCH PROGRAM: TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF RADON RESISTANT CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, D.C., EPA/600/D-91/235 (NTIS PB92108109).

Description:

The paper describes the technical direction of the Florida Radon Research Program (FRRP), its current objectives, and accomplishments to date. he 1988 Florida Legislature mandated the development of standards for the construction of radon resistant buildings. In support of this development, a program of research and development was initiated involving the Florida State University System, the Florida Department of Community Affairs, and the U.S. EPA. he FRRP will complete 2 years of concentrated effort to develop, test, and demonstrate a sound technical basis for radon resistant construction standards. he FRRP, using a research committee structure, has developed a coordinated interdisciplinary approach to project management in the major task areas of buildings research and radon source potential.
