Sec. 2664. Model construction standards and techniques

    The Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency shall 
develop model construction standards and techniques for controlling 
radon levels within new buildings. To the maximum extent possible, these 
standards and techniques should be developed with the assistance of 
organizations involved in establishing national building construction 
standards and techniques. The Administrator shall make a draft of the 
document containing the model standards and techniques available for 
public review and comment. The model standards and techniques shall 
provide for geographic differences in construction types and materials, 
geology, weather, and other variables that may affect radon levels in 
new buildings. The Administrator shall make final model standards and 
techniques available to the public by June 1, 1990. The Administrator 
shall work to ensure that organizations responsible for developing 
national model building codes, and authorities which regulate building 
construction within States or political subdivisions within States, 
adopt the Agency's model standards and techniques.
