Coastal Health Strategy Team

Although human health was to be explicitly addressed as appropriate in the other Strategy Teams, there were several specific coastal issues that can very directly impact human health. Issues covered included, but were not limited to: beach closings, combined sewer overflows (CSO), sanitary sewer overflows (SSO), bacteria and pathogen contamination.
