  • Description:
    This form enables public health officials to gain a thorough understanding of a facility’s water systems and aerosolizing devices and assists facility management with minimizing the risk of Legionnaires’ disease. It can be used along with epidemiologic information to determine whether to conduct Legionella environmental sampling and to develop a sampling plan. In addition, findings from this environmental assessment can be used to develop a water management program (WMP) by identifying areas at risk for Legionella growth and spread. The assessment should be performed on site by an epidemiologist or environmental health specialist with knowledge of the ecology of Legionella, building water systems, and water treatment; this includes public health professionals familiar with CDC resources such as the Legionella Environmental Assessment Form Marking Guide, Toolkit for Controlling Legionella in Common Sources of Exposure, and PreventLD.The LEAF Marking Guide walks the user through this form by providing instructions and additional considerations for the questions by adding further context and discussing relevant risk factors for Legionella growth and spread that users may find helpful.
