The 6th annual Radon Forum Northwest was a success, filling two meeting rooms at the Camas Public Library. The audience listened to presentations by experts in the fields of geology, health, radon testing, and mitigation design, as well as representatives from EPA. There was an enthusiastic Q&A session at the conclusion of the panel presentation, and several heartfelt testimonials about the dangers of radon. A number of resource tables were staffed in the entryway by the American Lung Association, Washington State Department of Health, Clark County's Planet Clark program, and others, handing out information and providing low-cost test kits to attendees.
