Abstract
Hazardous waste sites are a priority for local health officers in New Jersey. However, most officers feel that they are not adequately briefed or consulted by federal and state officials who manage site remediation. Consequently, many local health officers tend to be neutral or negative about federal and state site remediation plans. Consultation with local health officers should be formally built into the site remediation process, and officers should directly approach their state governments to gain access.
