• Following the emergency response, the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) and Winnebago County Health Department (WCHD) requested assistance from the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) to conduct a community Assessment of Chemical Exposure (ACE). A follow-up ACE investigation for environmental disaster events by public health authorities can help gauge long-term health concerns and demonstrate ongoing investment in the wellbeing of affected communities.
