About Keith

Keith Edwards is a radon specialist with MHI.  He joined the MHI team early in 2014 after retiring from a 37 year career with the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and relocating to rural Bondurant. During his USDA career, Keith planned and managed natural resource and economic development projects and provided USDA programs and technical expertise to Soil and Water Conservation Districts in 1/3 of Iowa’s southern and western counties.
