Please Note: On April 17, 2017, Gov. Doug Burgum signed legislation separating the Environmental Health Section from the North Dakota Department of Health to create a standalone Department of Environmental Quality (NDDEQ). Under Senate Bill 2327, the NDDEQ administers and enforces the same environmental protection programs as the existing Environmental Health Section. The NDDEQ became an official standalone agency effective July 1, 2019.
