Scenic Kitsap landscape: lake, houses, mountains.

Our vision:

A safe and healthy Kitsap County for all.

Elements in your daily surroundings can affect your health and well-being in big ways. Our goal is to improve people’s health by preventing pollution, reducing exposure to environmental hazards, and practicing safe sanitation.

​

We strive to accomplish this goal by:

  • Identifying and correcting sources of pollution or disease

  • Responding to unhealthy or unsafe conditions and advising the community about them

  • Developing and enforcing water, food safety, sewage, and garbage public health rules.

​

Our environmental health specialists are professionals with education, training, and experience in the sciences including chemistry, physics, biology, microbiology, and environmental health.
