Environmental Services

The Mineral County Health Department ensures the health and well-being of the citizens and visitors to our community. This is accomplished by educating the public, offering services, and by enforcing public health laws through the various permitted programs we offer and inspect.  

These programs include food sanitation, sewage and water, epidemiological surveillance, child care, schools, manufactured home communities, recreational facilities, institutions, recreational water facilities, lodging, care facilities, and body piercing/tattoo studios. 

Other services we provide are investigation of complaints where public health laws may have been violated, water samples, and technical assistance to developers and realtors. We also conduct educational programs for food service workers and individual sewage system installers and contractors.

For any applications, forms, or regulations refer to either the Regulations tab or the Applications and Forms tab in the navigation bar at the top of the page. If you have any questions please contact us.
