Michigan Guide to Environmental, Health, and Safety Regulations (June 2018)

Michigan Guide to EHS Regulations Cover NOTE: The new, 10th Edition has been posted.

The "Michigan Guide to Environmental, Health, and Safety Regulations" is a joint publication of the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) and the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA). Manufacturers, suppliers, consultants, and regulators can all benefit from this guide, which steers the reader through the maze of state and federal environmental, health, and safety regulatory programs. Although some reference is made to local building and fire codes, local requirements are not discussed in the guidebook in any detail. Be sure to contact your local government officials for information on applicable local requirements.

The guidebook is subdivided into three main sections: Environmental Regulations, Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Act (MIOSHA) Standards, and Construction and Fire Codes. Each chapter within each section targets a specific regulatory program. This Web site contains a complete version of the guidebook and allows you to download it by chapter.

The "Self-Assessment Survey" is a tool you can use to find which regulations are applicable to your specific operation. Simply answer each question in the survey "yes" or "no" to be directed to the portions of the book relevant to your business.

We would like your feedback on this guidebook. If you have comments or suggestions on how to improve it, send an email to Jim Ostrowski, Training and Outreach, at OstrowskiJ2@michigan.gov.
