Laws, codes and decisions on radon that apply in Grande Prairie
Each row names its instrument and status as the authority states it. Guidance is not law; a tribunal decision is not court precedent. Canada's 200 Bq/m³ guideline binds no homeowner.
| Rule type | Applies to | What it says | Instrument | Status | In effect from |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Building code | Alberta | The National Building Code, 2023 Alberta Edition has been the enforceable code since 1 May 2024, carrying the National Building Code's radon rough-in provisions. Any reference to Alberta following the 2019 edition is historical. | National Building Code, 2023 Alberta Edition | In force | 2024-05-01 |
| Real estate disclosure | Alberta | A test over 200 Bq/m³ is a material latent defect that must be disclosed unless a mitigation system goes in before listing. RECA tells licensees to make buyers aware of radon, testing and mitigation, and to advise them to have a certified radon technician install any mitigation system within 90 days of possession. | RECA radon guidance and checklists for licensees | Guidance | no data |
| Radon-specific legislation | Alberta | Received royal assent in 2017 but has never been proclaimed. If proclaimed, it would require child care applicants to provide a radon test done within the past year before a licence is issued or renewed, and a reduction plan if levels are too high. Alberta Health has said the Act waits for proclamation, has no expiry, and that the province considers voluntary testing sufficient. | Radon Awareness and Testing Act, SA 2017, c R-2.5 | Passed, not in force | no data |
| Workers' compensation | Alberta | Alberta lists diseases caused by ionizing radiation. | Alberta workers' compensation disease schedule | In force | no data |
