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 late 2004, the Public Health Code (PHC), 1978 PA 238, as amended, authorized the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) to charge construction permit and license fees for public swimming pools. These fees replaced the general fund tax dollars formerly used to fund the public swimming pool program. The PHC also authorized that these fees be adjusted every three (3) 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%.
For convenience, a PDF version of the fee schedule below is available for download.

EGLE has revised the Public Swimming Pool Construction Permit Application to reflect the adjusted fee schedule.
Pre-printed license invoices mailed to public swimming pool owners, generally in October, will have the correct licensing fee. Please note that the late fee adds $100 to the annual renewal fee and is assessed after December 31 through April 30. The lapsed fee adds another $50 to the annual renewal fee and is assessed after April 30.
Please note that local health departments are entitled to, and may collect, additional fees for services provided, such as swimming pool inspections. Please contact your local health department for their fee information and schedule. Please do not send the local health department inspection fee to EGLE.
