County of Los Angeles Department of Public Health Environmental Health 5050 Commerce Drive Baldwin Park, CA 91706 Email: ehmail@ph.lacounty.gov

Environmental Health performs three important roles in addressing lead issues:

• Conducting environmental investigations at the home of lead poisoned children to determine the source of the poisoning (if possible)
• Educating owners, contractors, government agencies, and the public about lead hazards and steps to prevent lead poisoning from occurring
• Responding to complaints of unsafe lead work (such as sandblasting without any containment) at properties built before 1978 that may contain lead paint

Environmental Health works jointly with Public Health nurses and other professionals as part of a Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPPP) team. To learn more about CLPPP, visit their website at: http://publichealth.lacounty.gov/lead/index.htm

For more information about lead, call 1-800-LA-4-LEAD (5323)
