Description:The consensus process was applied to addressing a public health topic; this was a novel endeavor. The following question was addressed: What role, if any, should sentinel health events play in the decision-making process for identifying the effects of environmental exposure?

Additionally, the panel developed several salient statements regarding the principles of environmental health surveillance and, especially, recommendations for future research.
