Environmental Health Services
Due to budget reductions the following operational changes have been implemented:
- Environmental Health Services office will be closed to visits and phone calls from 12:15 to 1:30 each day. Office staff has been reduced and this was necessary to allow for required administrative activities and lunch.
- Permits, applications, and water sample results will no longer be mailed. These documents will be sent via email or fax or are available for pick-up. Please make sure you provide us with an appropriate email (or fax number) contact.
