First report of RADMIL on radon

RADMIL'S carbon diffusion measurement data has been assessed using the 150 Becquerels per cubic metre guideline. The assessment shows that (i) of 391 Lancashire homes measured 1 exceeded the 150 Becquerels per cubic metre guideline value; (ii) Radon levels found fall distinctly into two groups. Those within an area of particularly Radon emitting geology and those outside that area; (iii) levels within districts in the central, north and north-eastern areas of the county are clearly higher than those outside those areas.
