In 2012, the NCDH and the NCDPW shared a mutual vision to enhance their collaboration to address the newly emergent ATM and successfully implement mosquito surveillance and control measures to protect the health of the public. The NCDOH and the NCDPW worked together to modify the Nassau County Mosquito Surveillance and Control Plan (NCMSCP), increase their communication both inter and intra-departmentally, and outreach to neighboring counties and educational institutions for guidance and training. Each Department designated a liaison to coordinate and troubleshoot initiatives for an improved program. Three of the major objectives established to accomplish the tasks were: 1) to improve the decision process for the application of larvicide and adulticide; 2) to improve the development of spray maps for vector control and public information; and 3) to educate the public on source reduction.
