Abstract
This report derives and presents a protocol for site-specific characterization of radon potentials that is consistent with existing residential radon protection maps. Although the radon protection maps provide quick and inexpensive regional estimates of radon potential category, it is also desirable to be able to measure the radon potential catagory of a particular site. Therefore, the site-specific protocol and basis presented in this report are designed to guide the measurement and interpretation of random-related features at a site to give further guidance on the possible need for random-protective construction features.
