Food & Recreational Inspection Program-REHA

Rural Environmental Health Alliance (REHA) is a contract agent for the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), providing licensing and inspection activities in retail food establishments and recreational facilities.  REHA was formed in 2025, by the health departments of Marquette and Green Lake Counties.  

We cover over 844 square miles, are home to 38,000 residents and regulate about 607 licensed facilities, including:

• Retail food
• Lodging
• Public swimming pools
• Campgrounds
• Recreational education camps
• Tattoo and body piercing

The purpose of the Environmental Health programs is to promote and protect the health and safety of residents and visitors.  In addition to licensing and inspections, environmental health staff investigate outbreaks of food and water-related illnesses and respond to other health hazards.
