Bill > HB836

This bill creates a comprehensive regulatory framework for licensing and oversight of radon industry professionals and businesses in Missouri, establishing detailed requirements for measurement professionals, mitigation professionals, radon mitigation inspection professionals, and radon laboratories. The bill requires these professionals to be certified by a recognized radon proficiency program and obtain a state license starting January 1, 2026, with provisions mandating that licensed professionals maintain current certification, carry general liability insurance of at least $500,000, follow established standards, and report their activities to a newly created Board of Radon Safety. The legislation defines numerous technical terms related to radon testing and mitigation, creates a Radon Control Fund to support the program's administration, establishes a seven-member Board of Radon Safety to oversee implementation, and provides mechanisms for licensing, renewal, disciplinary actions, and inspections. Homeowners testing their own homes and those using test kits from the state or nonprofit organizations are exempted from the licensing requirements, and the bill aims to promote radon testing, educate citizens about radon health risks, and ensure professional standards in radon-related services.
