The Environmental Health Division is responsible for minimizing threats to our water resources and public health by abating public health nuisances not covered by mandated programs. Through the inspection process, these programs promote continuing sanitation and maintenance practices that protect the public health, welfare and safety. Providing information and education is another service of the Environmental Health Division. Our staff offers presentations on all programs, from groundwater protection to rabies control regarding dog bites.
The Environmental Health Division, in an effort to ensure a healthy and safe community, administers a myriad of Public Health programs mandated by Ohio Law. The division acts as an approved agent of the State and performs the duties locally for Clinton County.
The programs are looked at in two distinct disciplines; the household sewage treatment, private water systems, and solid waste programs are designed to protect the surface and ground water of the Clinton County and programs such as food service operations, public pools and spas, manufactured home parks, RV parks, and others are regulated to ensure the basic health, safety, and sanitation of the establishments for the citizenry.
