Interactive map of Michigan's radon test results
EGLE created the interactive map of Michigan's radon test results to show radon tests results collected prior to installation of radon mitigation systems in Michigan homes, schools, and businesses. The map is based on test results provided by radon text kit manufactures who analyzed short-term radon test kits purchased through the EGLE Radon Program.
