Bill > HB2730

This bill establishes a licensing system for individuals and businesses involved in radon-related services in Missouri, aiming to ensure public safety and professional standards. It defines key terms such as "radon" (a naturally occurring radioactive gas), "measurement" (testing for radon), "mitigation" (reducing radon levels), and "certified" (meeting EPA-recognized proficiency program requirements). After December 31, 2026, no one can offer radon measurement, mitigation, inspection, or laboratory analysis for compensation without both private certification and a state license. The bill creates a Board of Radon Safety within the division of professional registration to oversee this process, issue licenses to qualified measurement professionals, mitigation professionals, radon mitigation inspection professionals, and radon laboratories, and establish rules and enforce compliance. All licensed professionals and businesses must maintain specific insurance coverage, and the board will maintain a public list of licensed entities. The bill also outlines grounds for refusing, suspending, or revoking licenses, including incompetence, fraud, or failure to maintain insurance, and grants the board authority to inspect records and premises to ensure adherence to standards. A dedicated "Radon Control Fund" will be established to cover the administrative and enforcement costs of these provisions.
