Question & Answer
Review the question and all answer choices
All homes to be tested for radon
A is incorrect because Illinois law does not require all homes to be tested for radon. While testing is recommended, it remains voluntary unless specifically required by a local ordinance or contractual agreement.
Sellers to provide a radon disclosure pamphlet
Buyers to pay for radon mitigation
C is incorrect because the law does not assign responsibility for radon mitigation costs to buyers. Payment for mitigation is typically negotiable between parties and depends on the specific terms of the contract.
Radon levels below 4.0 pCi/L
D is incorrect because 4.0 pCi/L is the EPA action level guideline, not a requirement under Illinois law. The state law focuses on disclosure rather than establishing specific legal thresholds.

B is correct because the Illinois Radon Awareness Act specifically requires sellers to provide buyers with a radon disclosure pamphlet and disclose any known test results or mitigation. This represents an informational disclosure requirement rather than a mandate for testing or mitigation.
