Then the map doesn't show risk of radon. It's worthless for that purpose.

"Different political institutions have different standards for what is a radon risk."

It's a map of different political institutions then. That's fine. Just don't try to sell a map of political institutions as a map of radon risk when that is obvious bullshit. I mean it's completely obvious from the boundary.

100% obvious bullshit.

Radon Risk is well established. If it’s higher than a specific limit you need to mitigate. This map just indicates where it is likely to be higher on average based on geology.
