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.

Act 138 Participating Transporter Search
A list of Act 138 permitted and registered transporters can be obtained by querying the Materials Management Division’s (MMD’s) Waste Data System (WDS).
WDS is used to track activities at sites related to solid waste, scrap tire, hazardous waste and liquid industrial by-products (formerly liquid industrial waste) management. WDS provides information about site ownership, operation, activities, inspections, as well as permits, licenses, registrations, waste manifests and program fees.
1. To get started, go to the Advanced Search page. Enter the Site ID or company name, if known. If this information is unknown, enter geographic information in the Location Address fields to limit your search (e.g. city, county, or EGLE District). In example below, the selection criteria entered is “OAKLAND.”
2. Next, expand the search options related to transporters by clicking on the radial button for the Hazardous and Liquid Industrial Waste Transporters.
3. This will expand the selection options and allow for the selection of a permit type (hazardous waste, liquid industrial waste/by-products, or alliance). In the example below, the selection criteria entered is “HW” for searching for a permitted and registered hazardous waste transporter.
