Community Environmental Protection Division

The activities of this Division are quite diverse and consist of what are considered to be core or "traditional" public health units as well as newer programs designed to protect consumers. The major program is the Onsite Sewage Disposal Program, which most people know through the regulation of individual homeowner’s septic tank & field lines. This Division also has responsibility for regulation of Public Swimming Pools, and also contains the Rabies Prevention and Body Art (Tattoo and Body-piercing) programs. Finally, this Division is where you want to make contact if you want to report problems with unsanitary conditions within the community or have General Sanitation or Vector Control issues with public health pests, such as rodents, flies or mosquitoes.

The contact number for this Division is 205.930.1230.
