Explanation:

A state health department focuses on the health of its residents. Promoting health - planning operations to limit lead exposure at home directly addresses the health of people within the state. Evaluating countries affected (a global scope), creating national guidelines (usually a national - level task), and researching worldwide effects (global) are not typical state - level health department actions.

Promote health - planning operations to limit lead exposure at home.
