Radon Mitigation in Milford
High radon risk from Devonian shale sequences including the Marcellus and Hamilton formations underlying Pike County. Milford, as the county seat, sits where the Appalachian Plateau descends toward the Delaware River on fractured Devonian bedrock with naturally elevated uranium content. Pike County's transformation from a seasonal recreation area to a year-round NYC commuter community means thousands of homes converted from seasonal use now operate as sealed, heated residences — conditions that concentrate indoor radon.
