At their first meeting in September
2002, EHAT began to review over
100 issues that had been compiled in
Island County over several years.
The team narrowed the list of issues
to seven broad categories: Air,
Conservation and Development,
Food Safety, Infectious Disease, Public
Policy, Solid and Hazardous Waste,
and Water. During the
years that followed, the EHAT analyzed these
issues, developed locally appropriate
indicators and standards, and created
issue profiles on four issues:
Illegal Dumping and Littering, A
Walkable Island County, West
Nile Virus, and Arsenic in Drinking
Water. Next, the team set priorities
for action and developed and implemented
action plans for its top two priority
issues--illegal dumping and littering
and a walkable Island County.
