Washington Pesticide Laws and Safety Practice Test

Which department is responsible for handling health issues?

1. WA Department of Health

2. WA Emergency Management Division

3. WA Department of Ecology

4. WA State Patrol

The correct answer is: WA Department of Health

The WA Department of Health is responsible for handling health issues because it is a government agency specifically dedicated to promoting and protecting public health in the state of Washington. The WA Emergency Management Division (B), WA Department of Ecology (C), and WA State Patrol (D) do not have the same focus on health issues and are responsible for other areas such as emergency response, environmental protection, and law enforcement. Therefore, A is the best answer because it is the most relevant and appropriate department for addressing health concerns.
