HSEES Four Year Report
1998-2001

 

Since 1990, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) has maintained an active, state-based Hazardous Substances Emergency Events Surveillance (HSEES) system to describe the public health consequences associated with the release of hazardous substances. Since 1992, the Oregon Department of Human Services/Health Services has participated in this surveillance system. This report summarizes the characteristics of events reported to the surveillance system by Oregon Health Services (OHS) during 1998-2001.

The Oregon Hazardous Substances Emergency Events Surveillance (HSEES) System is supported by a cooperative agreement, U61/ATU096966, from the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR).
