Participation in this program is strictly voluntary. Inspection findings will be shared with the homeowner. In the event deficiencies are observed, it is the sole responsibility of the homeowner to resolve any issues. EGLE will not pursue enforcement for correction of deficiencies on the behalf of the homeowner. EGLE may share critical deficiencies, which could cause immediate harm, with local code enforcement officials. The scope of this program is limited only to the home's radon mitigation system. Permitting EGLE to perform this inspection does not obligate EGLE to repair a home's radon mitigation system or take any other action to address deficiencies identified.
