Lawson Becomes Delaware's First Soil Gas Mitigation Compliance Inspector

Congratulations to David Lawson for being the first person to pass the Soil Gas Mitigation Compliance Inspector exam in the State of Delaware. This achievement allows him to inspect radon mitigation systems installed in buildings within Delaware and ensure they meet the standards set by the American Association of Radon Scientists and Technologists (AARST). This certification verifies his ability to assess whether these systems have been engineered and installed in accordance with established standards of radon mitigation technology.

The exam is conducted by the National Radon Proficiency Program (NRPP) and accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) which gives credibility to David Lawson's certification and underscores the importance of adhering to rigorous standards in radon mitigation to protect public health.

Radon is a radioactive gas that can pose serious health risks when it accumulates in indoor spaces. Therefore it is essential to have qualified inspectors like Mr. Lawson to ensure the effectiveness and safety of mitigation systems.

Mr. Lawson's role as a third-party inspector of radon systems, regardless of the company that performed the installation, is crucial for maintaining impartiality and ensuring the integrity of the inspection process. This arms-length business operation means that he will provide unbiased assessments and evaluations of radon mitigation systems without favoring any specific installation company. This level of independence is essential to maintain the quality and reliability of radon mitigation system inspections, as it helps guarantee that inspections are carried out fairly and in accordance with established standards. This is especially important because radon is a silent but potentially hazardous threat.  Thus having an objective inspector like Mr. Lawson ensures that mitigation systems are genuinely protecting people from this health risk.
