EPA Zone 3: lower predicted potential

is EPA's lowest class, and its forecast for Conecuh County as a whole is an average indoor of less than 2 pCi/L (less than 75 Bq/m³). A low zone clears no address in it: homes above EPA's turn up in all three zones.

Measured: tests reported to CDC

Radon tests reported for Conecuh County, 2008 to 2017, laboratory

CDC holds 2 reported tests for Conecuh County over the 2008 to 2017 laboratory totals, with a median of 0.6 pCi/L: too few to describe a county (Radon411 reads a share from 30 tests up). Conecuh County beside the counties around it is how this page reads it.

What these figures count

Only 2 tests were reported to CDC for Conecuh County over 2008 to 2017 (laboratory totals), and tests are often run on homes being sold or already suspected of a problem: so few describe neither the county nor this house.

Measured: CDC tracking data. Figure above: 2008 to 2017, laboratory. Measured data period: 2005 to 2017 (every CDC figure on file).

Conecuh County, Compared

Conecuh County radon figures, compared

Calculated by Radon411

CDC's largest figure for Conecuh County rests on 2 tests over the 2008 to 2017 laboratory totals, 0 of them at or above 4 pCi/L, so each test moves its share by 50.0 points and no rank or comparison is drawn from it. Results reached as high as 1.0 pCi/L, with a middle value of 0.6 pCi/L.

The nearest counties with a figure are Baldwin County (65 miles away) at 0.0%, Montgomery County (71 miles away) at 9.7% and Autauga County (79 miles away) at 17.1%. Pooled across 65 Alabama counties, 21.9% of reported tests reached that level; across every county in the country with a figure, 35.7%.

Statewide for the same period, Colbert County reported the highest share (36.2%) and Baldwin County the lowest (0.0%). EPA's 1993 map puts Conecuh County in Zone 3, its lowest label: a predicted county average under 2 pCi/L. USGS geology rates 100% of the county's land low radon potential.
