Public Health Assessment Lower Liberty Hill Road Site Gliford, Belknap County, New Hampshire

摘要

Due to the nature and number of health concerns that community members have raised about potential past exposure and health risk, DES Environmental Health Program prepared this Public Health Assessment for the Lower Liberty Hill Road Site. A Public Health Assessment is a triage tool used by public health agencies to determine if actions are needed to protect the community surrounding a hazardous waste site, and to determine if follow-up health activities (e.g., health education, medical surveillance) should be undertaken.To achieve this goal, this assessment contains three types of evaluations: (1) the identification of pathways of exposure to site contaminants and an evaluation of their public health implications; (2) a discussion of relevant and available health outcome data; and (3) an evaluation of specific community health concerns about the site.
