Results from radon testing for the Kootenay-Columbia School District are in.
Health Canada suggests any areas that test between 200 and 600 becquerels per cubic meter should be remediated within two years.
Most schools scored under 200 in all areas except certain rooms in Stanley Humprhies, JL Crowe and Kinnaird Elementary.
Mike Adams with Interior Health says radon can cause lung cancer.
You can find the district’s results in full at SD-20’s website.
