What is the Environmental Health Department (EHD)?

| The
Environmental Health Department provides environmental
services, which protect and enhance public health,
well-being, and safety through prevention, education,
inspection and enforcement of State and local environmental
laws and regulations. |
The
Environmental Health Department inspects restaurants, mobile
food units, employee housing, hotels and motels, public water
systems, dairies, wells, underground storage tanks, and enforces
environmental health regulations associated with many other
business and construction activities.
The EHD works with Emergency Response teams in the event of
a hazardous waste incident. As the Certified Unified Program
Agency (CUPA), the EHD works with other agencies to coordinate
hazardous materials program inspection and permitting
activities.
