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.

The licensing and handling of domestic septage is regulated under 2004 Public Act 381, which amended Part 117, Septage Waste Servicers, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended. EGLE's Drinking Water and Environmental Health Division administers the septage program with the assistance of participating county health departments.

Septage waste is controlled in Michigan by both state and federal regulations.
The EGLE septage program uses the Michigan Environmental Health and Drinking Water Information System (MiEHDWIS). This new, easy-to-use system allows for better communication and more efficient processes for septage haulers, vehicles, land application sites, storage facilities, and receiving facilities with additional functionality to be released in the future. Current functionality allows external users to create an account and directly upload documents such as applications and other supporting information from septage businesses, operating plan amendments from septage waste receiving facilities, or inspection reports from local health department staff.
