Community involvement and public participation are an essential part of EGLE’s mission, vision, and values.
Resources and information on utilizing RRD's data exchange and the Inventory of Facilities.
An interactive map displaying contaminated sites throughout Michigan regulated under Parts 213, 201, and 211.
EGLE's interactive calendar is designed to provide timely information on decisions before the Director, proposed settlements of contested cases, administrative rules promulgation, public hearings, meetings and comment deadlines, and environmental conferences, workshops and training programs.
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 Groundwater Modeling Program (GMP) has provided groundwater modeling support on a department-wide basis since 1980.
As technology has increased, so too has the use of groundwater modeling in EGLE programs. As a result, the scope of service provided by the GMP has expanded. Today, our support encompasses all aspects of groundwater modeling, including:
To encourage the development and use of new technologies, the GMP does not require specific modeling software or code that is used to develop a groundwater model. Any modeling software can be used as long as the model code is capable of accurately incorporating the conceptual model, has adequate documentation, and the model has been tested and accepted by the groundwater modeling community. The GMP maintains current versions of Groundwater Vistas©, Visual MODFLOW©, and GMS© modeling software, which are used for most model review and development. These software packages are all pre- and post-processors for the MODFLOW package, the United Stated Geological Survey's (USGS) numerical groundwater modeling code. MODFLOW can be used to model a wide range of hydrogeologic complexity from simple 1-dimensional problems to complex 3-dimensional problems.
