Environmental Sanitation

Environmental Sanitation

Environmental Sanitation Program (ESP) is responsible for setting sanitation standards to ensure a clean and sanitary environment for food service facilities, public pools, public lodging, as well as other public facilities. To accomplish this, the ESP has oversight of 21 state sanitation rules, and assists the local health departments in their responsibility of enforcement of these rules. The ESP also coordinates environmental sanitation issues with the local health departments, and other state and federal agencies.
