     4  lung cancer. The New York state department of health has identified over

     6  is  critically  important  for New York state to develop a comprehensive
     7  approach to protecting New York residents  from  this  potential  health

    11  make  recommendations  to reduce and minimize exposure to New York state
    12  residents. The scope of such study shall include:
    13    1. Examine the need for interagency coordination of  public  education
    14  and outreach and prevention programs;
    15    2.  Examine the need for training, education and possible licensing of
    16  radon services providers; and
    17    3. Review of any other related information that  the  commissioner  of
    18  health  may  deem  necessary  or  relevant in carrying out such study of
    19  radon in indoor settings.
    20    § 3. 1. The task force shall consist of seven members as follows:

     7  real estate;
     8    e.  one  member  to  be  appointed  by  the temporary president of the

    11    2. The governor shall designate one member to serve as the chairperson

    13    § 4. Members of the task force shall receive no compensation but shall
    14  be reimbursed for their actual and necessary expenses in the performance
    15  of their duties pursuant to this act.
    16    § 5. A report of the findings and recommendations of  the  task  force
    17  and  any proposed legislation necessary to implement such findings shall
    18  be filed with the governor, the temporary president of the  senate,  the
