the environment. Most of our members are employed by local government
agencies that regulate retail food establishments, public swimming pools,
land use/septic systems, landfills, domestic and environmental wells,
and much more. Please refer to our section on the history

Strategic Plan
The
California Department of Health Services administers the Registered
Environmental Health Specialist (REHS) Registration Program. During
the last several years, the REHS Program has encountered a number of
challenges, including budget and staffing cuts. These cuts have hindered
the State's ability to regularly complete the many tasks that are required
by the California Health and Safety Code. For details on measures that
are being taken by DHS staff and a recently formed Strategic Plan Committee,
click on the links noted below. Updates regarding this critical issue
will be posted regularly.
