Wake County Free Training on Radon and Radionuclides

FREE TRAINING
Radon & Radionuclides
Dealing with Wake County's most common well water contaminants

What?
Do you help private well users drink their water with confidence? Then you will want to attend this free training covering Radon and radionuclides in well water. These are the most chemical contaminants in Wake County wells, but most wells have not been tested for them, and fixing these problems can be complicated.

Over a day of training, we will cover:

• The status of Radon and radionuclides in Wake County wells
• Potential health impacts of radionuclides in well water
• Evaluating radon from soil vs radon from well water
• Best practices for sampling, testing, lowering radionuclide levels, managing confounding issues in water treatment, and maintenance of mitigation systems
•  Cost comparison of mitigation strategies and technologies

Speakers include subject matter experts from the Rutgers University Eastern Regional Radon Training Center, N.C. Radiation Protection Section; N.C. Division of Public Health; and Wake County Groundwater staff.
