About us
The University of Nevada, Reno Extension's program, Nevada Radon Education Program (NREP), supported by the EPA and Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health, was instituted in late 2007 to educate the citizens of Nevada about the radon health risk.
NREP's goals are to educate Nevadans about the health risks of radon, encourage homeowners to test their homes for radon, fix radon problems, build new homes with radon-resistant new home construction techniques (RRNC) and test for radon when buying real estate. NREP offers literature, educational programs and radon test kits in most county Extension and partner offices across the state.
