How Can Local Public Works Departments And Transportation Agencies Best Interact With Local Public Health Agencies?
Public works managers and administrators should be proactive. First, find out which local public health agency (city- or county-administered program, or independent vector control district) is responsible for vector control in your jurisdiction. Second, contact that agency and ask for, or work together to develop, guidelines so that both the public works and public health agencies understand when the public health agency should be contacted regarding your public works projects. Finally, develop an interagency relationship, or form an advisory committee, for design-review and consultation.
