This bill establishes a licensing requirement for individuals who install radon mitigation systems in South Dakota. It defines a "radon mitigation system" as an installation aimed at reducing or eliminating radon in indoor spaces. To legally perform installations for compensation, individuals must obtain a license as a radon mitigation specialist from the Department of Health. Violating this requirement is classified as a Class 1 misdemeanor. The bill outlines the application process for licensure, which includes submitting an application, paying a fee, providing proof of completion of a nationally recognized certification program, and confirming the applicant is at least eighteen years old. Licenses will expire one year after issuance and can be renewed by meeting specific continuing education and documentation requirements.

Additionally, the bill creates a radon mitigation licensure fund to manage the fees collected and associated administrative expenses. The Department of Health is tasked with promulgating rules regarding the licensure process, continuing education standards, installation criteria, and fee structures. The initial licensure fee is capped at five hundred dollars, while the renewal fee is limited to two hundred fifty dollars. The department also has the authority to deny, suspend, or revoke licenses based on fraudulent applications or failure to adhere to established installation standards.
