Our mission is to protect health, prevent disease and promote a safe environment for all persons in Tehama County. The Tehama County Environmental Health Department is primarily a public health regulatory agency, however it relies heavily on persuasion and education in fulfilling its legal responsibilities.
Inspection, complaint investigation, permitting and regulation is conducted in the areas of food establishments, individual sewage disposal systems, public water systems, solid waste facilities, medical waste generators, hazardous materials, waste handlers, waste generators, institutions, land development and underground storage tanks, adult use and cultivation of marijuana, and code enforcement.

To all Tehama County Dixie and McFarland Fire Survivors:
To get help cleaning and clearing your burned property, you must sign a Right-of-Entry form for the Consolidated Debris Removal Program. In this program, state contractors will clear your property and haul away all burn debris, including tree removal. If you choose NOT to participate in this state program, you are still responsible for cleaning and clearing your property. To clean your property yourself, you must enroll in the Alternative Fire Debris Removal Program. Properties in the Alternative Program will be held to the same clean-up standards, including metals and other contaminant testing, as properties in the state-run program. Please see the link below for FAQs, a letter explaining the Consolidated Debris Removal Program and the Right of Entry form. All forms are due by November 1st with an absolute end-date of November 15th.
