The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality plays a massive role in getting involved when environmental quality becomes poor. This department works with other agencies to improve the environment. The case held at Bunker Hill asked the question of testing blood lead toxicity and if it was viable for a clean up effort. The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality is set to tasks with other agencies to figure out how to keep our environments as clean as possible.

The Idaho Department of Environmental quality will appear before the House in order to inform the powers leading the country of environmental issues. The case of wildfires contributing to pollution was given by Mary Anderson, Division program manager for the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality. This speech was given to begin more research with other associations to better learn how much pollution wildfires created and why this occurs. The biggest concern that the Idaho Department Of Environmental Quality is the safety of the public.

The clean air policy was implemented at first to bus drivers to not let the bus idle on school grounds while waiting and that quickly spread to parks and other public places making it so that no one would just let their care run and idle. They implemented this policy to help with the air quality and hopefully keep it clean.

Long term exposure to arsenic equal to or above 50 mL has been known to be linked to or cause different cancers. Arsenic is higher in some counties and higher in others. In men the studies show that they are more likely to be affected by the arsenic than women are. Ramalmaad99 (talk) 18:10, 7 April 2020 (UTC)Ramal Maad

This article talks about the actions that IDEQ has taken to help protect salmonoids in Idaho's streams and rivers. Rivers and streams were monitored to try and gain an understanding of what regular water temperatures should look like to better gain knowledge on how to protect salmonoids in the Salmon and Clearwater Rivers.
