EPA Zone 1

This northern North Dakota community in Pembina County (zip code 58238) sits near the Canadian border in EPA Zone 1, indicating high radon potential despite limited local testing data. The area's glacial till soils over shale and sandstone bedrock, combined with the region's harsh winters that keep homes tightly sealed, can create conditions for radon accumulation.
