Map of Radon Zones for Rhode Island | |
The purpose of this map is to assist National, State, and local organizations to target their resources and to implement radon-resistant building codes. This map is not intended to be used to determine if a home in a given zone should be tested for radon. Homes with elevated levels of radon have been found in all three zones.
All homes should be tested regardless of geographic location.

the Map. See Rhode Island's map of the percentage of homes in the state tested equal to or greater than 4 pCi/L at www.health.ri.gov/data/radon/ |
