In the report, "Farm Worker Illness Following Exposure to
Carbofuran
and Other Pesticides -- Fresno County, California, 1998," on page
113 the
first footnote should have indicated that resources for one of the
surveillance programs also were provided by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency. The footnote should read: "The California
Department of
Health Services (CDHS) participates in two pesticide illness
prevention
projects, for which CDC provided resources, that use case reports
generated
by these mandatory reporting requirements: the Sentinel Event
Notification
System for Occupational Risk (SENSOR) and Community Partners for
Health
Farming. The Office of Pesticide Programs, U.S. Environmental
Protection
Agency, also provided resources for the SENSOR program for
pesticide-related illness in California."
