Resident, a public commenter, told the meeting that radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in Utah and urged attendees to order free home test kits from utahradon.org.

"As a mom, I have a pretty good idea when kids are trying to sneak things into the home. So when I heard that radon was the second leading cause of lung cancer in Utah and that it could be sneaking through my house, I got on to utahradon.org and ordered my free test kit," Resident said. "Ordering was free, easy, and it came within a few days. When it arrived, it was quick and self explanatory. So let's keep things that don't belong inside out where they belong." Resident closed the comment with: "Order your free kit from utahradon.org today."
