The Michigan Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) provides all persons (except persons incarcerated in correctional facilities) with access to public records of public bodies. Requests to inspect or receive public records from EGLE must be in writing and describe the requested records with enough detail to enable the department to identify and locate the requested records. Some records are exempt from disclosure under the FOIA or another statute and thus will not be provided. A fee may be charged to process your request. Please note that many records are available that do not require a formal FOIA request.

In 2004, the Public Health Code, 1978 PA 368, as amended, was revised to authorize the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) to charge construction permit and license fees for campgrounds. These fees replaced the general fund tax dollars formerly used to fund the campground program. This revision also authorized that the fees be adjusted every three years by an amount that reflects the cumulative annual percentage change in the Detroit consumer price index. The sixth and most recent three-year change is in effect beginning 10/01/2022 with an increase of 16.2%.
