| Abstract | The paper describes the technical direction of the Florida Radon Research Program (FRRP), its current objectives, and accomplishments to date. The 1988 Florida Legislature mandated the development of standards for the construction of radon resistant buildings. 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. The FRRP will complete two years of concentrated effort to develop, test, and demonstrate a sound technical basis for radon resistant construction standards. |
