Historique
The Environmental Health Services Branch was created on July 1, 1966 within the Ontario Department of Health as a result of the amalgamation of the former Industrial Hygiene and Environmental Sanitation Branches. It formed part of the Public Health Division. It was known until 1967 as the Environmental Health Branch.
The Environmental Health Services Branch was divided into a number of units with responsibilities in the following areas: air pollution control, the Civil Service Employee Health Service, environmental health laboratories, occupational health, pesticides control, public health engineering, radiation protection and stuffed articles. In 1967 the Branch assumed responsibility for food protection service and in 1968 for health studies service.
The Environmental Health Services Branch ceased to exist in 1972 when the Department of Health was replaced with the Ministry of Health. The majority of its functions were transferred to the new Occupational Health Protection Branch. Responsibility formerly held by the Public Health Engineering Service for advising on the engineering aspects of septic tanks and other private waste systems was assigned to the newly formed Private Waste and Water Management Branch of the Ministry of the Environment.
