What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the Department of Safety and Professional Services
promulgates rules that establish standards for all of the following:
1. The design, construction, maintenance, and inspection of public buildings
and places of employment, commonly called the “commercial building code.”
2. The construction and inspection of one-family and two-family dwellings,
commonly called the “uniform dwelling code.”
3. The use of building materials, methods, and equipment in the manufacture
and installation of modular homes for use as dwellings or dwelling units.
This bill requires DSPS, in promulgating those rules, to require the use of
radon-resistant construction materials and techniques in new construction of public
buildings, places of employment, one-family and two-family dwellings, and modular
homes.
