Abstract
The review is based on the documents entitled 'EPA's National Residential Radon Survey Preliminary Results' and 'Proposed Revisions in EPA Estimates of Radon-Risks and Associated Uncertainties'. These documents represent an important step forward by the Agency in assessing the health risks of exposure to radon and its decay products, in reviewing and utilizing the recent scientific results and deliberations on issues affecting the dose and risk, and in attempting to quantify the attendant uncertainties. The Board has, however, some reservations and comments regarding the dose-response model used for the estimation of overall risk.
