描述（由申请人提供）：俄勒冈州食源性疾病预防计划的任务是实施和维护干预或监管策略，以预防由于食物，游泳池和住宿设施的赞助而导致的疾病和伤害。俄勒冈州EHS-Net有三个指控，它们是；(1)识别和定义食源性疾病和疾病爆发的环境前因，着眼于与其他州共享信息(2)测试可输出到非EHS-Net设置的实用环境公共卫生监测和控制策略(3)与其他EHS-Net站点，CDC，州和地方流行病学家合作；临床实验室和环境卫生专家设计监测系统，以产生更普遍的食源性疾病模式图片。通过在选定的州公共卫生机构内建立EHS-Net站点，作为疾病预防控制中心食品网项目的一部分，疾病预防控制中心创建了一个国家环境公共卫生资源。EHS-Net站点的目的是处理与疾病暴发的环境前因的识别、定义、监测、预防和控制有关的国家和州优先事项。

Description (provided by Applicant): The Oregon Foodborne Illness Prevention Program mission is to implement and maintain intervention or regulatory strategies to prevent illness and injury as a result of patronage of food, pool and lodging facilities. Oregon EHS-Net has three charges, they are; (1) to identify and define environmental antecedents of foodborne illness and disease outbreaks, with an eye toward sharing the information with other states (2) to test practical environmental public health surveillance and control strategies that can be exported to non- EHS-Net settings (3) to collaborate with other EHS-Net sites, CDC, state and local epidemiologists, clinical laboratories and environmental health specialists to design surveillance systems that produce more generalizable pictures of foodborne disease patterns. By establishing EHS-Net Sites as part of CDC's Foodnet Project, within selected State public-health agencies, CDC has created a national environmental public health resource. The purpose of the EHS-Net sites is to address national and state priorities related to the identification, definition, surveillance, prevention, and control of environmental antecedents to disease outbreaks. This program will conduct statewide epidemiologic investigations into the antecedent causes of foodborne illness outbreaks. This investigational work may occur in any of Oregon's 36 counties.
