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.

Control of hazardous wastes in Michigan is accomplished through a set of interrelated actions. These include managing the generation, treatment, storage and disposal of hazardous wastes, licensing and regulating hazardous and liquid industrial by-products (formerly liquid industrial waste) transportation, and informing individuals of the opportunities for proper disposal of hazardous and harmful wastes generated in the home.

Hazardous Waste Program Staff Contacts - assignments by county
To protect human health and environment, unwanted drugs should be disposed of properly. Incineration destroys the chemicals in drugs and protects our water resources. Information, including collection locations and disposal vendors can be found here.
Staff from the Hazardous Waste Program Section review construction and operating license applications and make recommendations for the approval or denial of permits and operating licenses for treatment, storage and disposal facilities accepting hazardous waste. Field staff inspect generators of hazardous waste and facilities that treat, store, or dispose of hazardous waste.
Household hazardous waste (HHW) includes products that we purchase and use every day in our homes that can harm us or the environment if they are not handled properly.
The EGLE Retail Environmental Workgroup was established to evaluate unique retail specific challenges in managing unwanted consumer products to meet the hazardous waste and liquid industrial by-products regulations.
