ODH has posted on its website a list of Ohio properties whose owners have refused to comply with an order from the Ohio Department of Health to control known lead hazards. For a property to be included on the list, a child younger than age 6 living in the home tested positive for an elevated blood lead level; this triggered a public health lead investigation by ODH or its delegated local board of health, and the investigation identified a lead hazard in the home (the most common being deteriorating lead-based paint in pre-1978 housing); a Lead Hazard Control Order was issued to the property owner, ordering him/her to control the lead hazard; and the property owner refused to control the lead hazard, so an Order to Vacate the property was issued, declaring it unsafe for human occupation, especially for children younger than 6 years old and pregnant women. “We think that in addition to giving people access to a list of lead-safe housing, it also makes sense to give them access to a list of properties that are known to have uncontrolled lead hazards,” said Gene Phillips, Chief of the ODH Bureau of Environmental Health and Radiation Protection.

The list can be found at this link on ODH's website:

Welcome to our community website...

As of late Friday afternoon (September 2, 2016), the Trumbull County Combined Health District is no longer under an EPA Consent Decree.  The following are the three major points that concern our agency:

  1. The Board of Health can grant a variance from sewer tie-in provided that the property has a functioning on-lot septic system that is not creating a public health nuisance defined by ORC 3718.011.  Discharging systems (off-lots) cannot apply for variance.
  2. Virgin lots platted before January 1, 2007 per OAC 3701-29-06 (F) can now be considered for coverage under the OEPA general permit pertaining to NPDES systems (off-lots).
  3. Installers can install any system that is approved by Ohio Department of Health and on the ODH approved list without pump station and sand filters.
