Hazardous Substances Emergency Events Surveillance (HSEES)
HSEES, maintained by the federal Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry
(ATSDR), is a state-based surveillance system with the goal of tracking and
preventing the adverse public health consequences associated with the
uncontrolled or illegal release of hazardous substances. The 15
participating state health departments actively collect data on releases
from many different sources and enter it into a secure web-deployed data
entry system. Information contained in the System includes, but is not
limited to, event date, event city, event county, names and quantities of
released substances, number of victims, types of injuries, and numbers of
evacuations and evacuees.
