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."
