Strengthening the capacity for environmental health in Florida to detect, prevent, and control environmental health hazards. - The large resident and visitor populations in Florida combined with the unique ecology and high potential for impacts from natural disasters such as hurricanes or harmful algae blooms, invariably leads to many questions regarding impacts from the environment on public health. Florida residents and visitors want to know their health risks and how to minimize them. The Florida Department of Health (FDOH) works to protect, promote, and improve the health of all people in Florida through integrated state, county, and community efforts. FDOH is an integrated state agency with the Bureau of Environmental Health working closely with environmental health (EH) staff throughout Florida’s 67 county health departments (CHDs). The purpose of this request is to seek grant funding to support CDC in efforts to enhance the capacity for public health protection nationwide by strengthening the capacity of environmental health (EH) programs and services. This is accomplished by implementing projects to improve the effectiveness of data-driven decisions using Florida’s EH data. Projects in both Component A and B are included in this funding request. Florida has a long history of evaluating program effectiveness and implementation consistency across 67 counties. For Component A, FDOH proposes to enhance and update the current EH program evaluation protocol and scoring tools. The focus is to use EH data to evaluate the effectiveness of several EH program areas and use outcomes to support EH program improvements to reduce exposure to EH hazards. FDOH began creating a comprehensive geospatial inventory of drinking water sources for the approximate 6.5-million developed parcels in the state of Florida. For Component B, FDOH proposes to implement a project to enhance protection of drinking water in private wells and address concerns related to historical and emerging chemical and biological contaminants. FDOH will gather and link well construction and water testing data for both private wells and public water systems of interest to EH programs at FDOH. This represents a new capacity to assess potential impacts to public health from hazards that affect drinking water. FDOH proposes to accomplish these projects by expanding its capacity and hire a Project Planner, a Data Analyst, and fund an existing half-time GIS Database Administrator. There are numerous EH subject matter experts, certified Project Management Professionals, Certified Public Managers, risk assessors, and web/database developers that will assist with project implementation. FDOH also has good working relationships within the agency and its CHDs, as well as with federal, state, and local government; industry associations; and many others. Outcomes of this work will be to strengthen EH data use and informatics capacity; identify, prevent, and control EH hazards; and assess effectiveness of EH interventions and their impact. Ultimately the outcomes will decrease exposure to EH hazards in Florida. To achieve these outcomes, FDOH will develop tools to successfully use EH data to find and mitigate EH hazards and evaluate the effectiveness and impact of these enhancements. These projects will result in increased collaboration and data sharing with partners and the public. Project results will support EH program improvements in Florida and increase the capacity for public health protection using Florida-specific environmental health data.
