Boards and advisory groups

The Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) engages with a variety of boards, committees, councils, and advisory groups to ensure that its programs reflect diverse perspectives and informed decision-making. These groups serve as important forums where stakeholders, including members of the public, industry representatives, subject matter experts, and local government officials, can provide input, share expertise, and offer recommendations on environmental issues and initiatives.

Many of these bodies are formally established through legislation, executive orders, or administrative rules, while others are convened by EGLE to address specific topics or emerging concerns. Whether permanent or temporary, these groups play a vital role in promoting transparency, accountability, and collaboration between EGLE and the communities it serves.
