Housing units at Safe bases being checked for radon Gas   Bureau Ramstein a Germany Safe officials have begun testing housing units and other buildings at various bases in Europe for traces of possibly harmful radon Gas. Radon is an odourless colourless Gas which is a natural product of decaying uranium in the soil it enters buildings through cracks in Concrete slabs base ment cinder blocks and air space around pipes. Prolonged exposure to High Levels of the Gas can cause cancer. What we re doing right now is just Selling a picture 01 what Europe looks like from a radon concept said col. Edwin c. Banner 111, Safe Bio Anvi Formental Engineer. The 90-Day lest period which began dec. 1, is the firs step in the air Force s radon assessment and mitigation  Gram. The tests will be conducted at 23 bases in Safe and 136 bases throughout Theair Force we have no idea at this Point in Lime what the radon concentrations Are in the world itself Banner said. The test will look at about 30 buildings on bases with housing and 15 buildings on basis without housing. Banner said. The test also will be conducted in child care centers schools temporary lodging facilities and dormitories. Thai will then give us a picture i f Whai kind of radon problem we May be dealing with Banner said. The testing was prompted by the environmental Protection Agency s determination that radon May prove to be a he ally , the concern started to develop three to five years ago when a radiation worker Sci Oft inc alarm going into work. Not going out but going in. They traced the cause of thai Back to his House which had a Strenick High Levels of radon  Din Ner said.

That just Means that the exposure to radon is not going 10 increasingly shorten your life due to lung  the risk of getting lung cancer from exposure to eight Picoc urics of radon per Lilor a Day is equivalent to smoking one pack of cigarettes a Day 15 Picoc urics a qualms to two packs a Day and so equals four packs a Day. At the end of the testing phase the air Force will determine what Steps should be taken to reduce the risk of radon i a generic air Force base sees absolutely no contamination above the guide line level of four  curies per cubic liter than we will not do anything else Banner said. If Al least one of the test units Register a Reading of More than four Pic curio then every building on base will be tested. A finding of More than 20 Piccou pics will prompt immediate action on the unit and testing fall other units. If we Sec above 200. Thai ii a serious danger Point and we probably depend ing upon the location and what s Avail Able we will probably move people  actions planned to reduce hazards in units with unacceptable Levels of radon include sealing off sources of the Gaj coming from the i oud and improving ventilation. Banners nil. The radon search ii an air Force first and officials arc Noi sure what they will find. My own personal opinion is we will probably find some installations with above four Banner said we will prob ably also find one or two bases that will be above he 20  pics. But i would dare say that we would not have a hit on the first go above the 2011." the testing phase does t mean that people should change their lifestyles in an Effort to avoid radon. Banner said. Radon is something that we live with All the time there is absolutely no Way of avoid ing it. Don t panic. Be concerned about what s going on. Be concerned about the results which should be out in the May june Lime Frame.
