Abstract

ENGLAND is the home of public health engineering. In that country such activities date back prior to the germ theory of disease and also antedate substantial accomplishments in this field elsewhere. Administrative practice has had much to do there with the history of public health engineering. This is particularly true in view of the fact that the Local Government Board of England had for a great many years jurisdiction over problems relating to sewerage, sewage disposal and river pollution, and over their bearing upon water supplv projects and the disposal of industrial wastes. In 1919 this jurisdiction was transferred to the Ministry of Health.
