The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy’s (EGLE) Water Well Viewer (WWV), is an interactive mapping system that displays water wells along with other information, such as wellhead protection areas, underground storage tanks, and sites of environmental contamination. Water well locations have been identified by address matching, the use of global positioning systems (GPS), and by legal descriptions.
This system allows water well drilling and pump installation contractors to submit water well records.
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 State of Michigan has been awarded $156 million for the MI Solar for All program by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
The MI Solar for All program will support solar development for thousands of households in low-income and disadvantaged communities across Michigan through direct financial assistance for rooftop solar, community solar, and energy storage.
We are in the process of updating the MI Solar for All FAQs to reflect our most current workplan - thank you again for your patience!
The MI Solar for All program aims to:
The program will benefit low-income residential households. The EPA Solar For All program defines “low-income individuals and households” for this program as having:
Federal Poverty Level (FPL) is defined using the latest publicly available figures from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Area Median Income (AMI) is defined using the latest publicly available figures from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
Metropolitan Area and Non-Metropolitan Area are defined using the latest publicly available figures for county-level designations from the U.S. Office of Management and Budget.
Statewide Non-Metropolitan Area AMI is defined using the latest publicly available figures from the U.S. Department of the Treasury's CDFI Fund, with an adjustment for household size using HUD's Family Size Adjustment factor.
The EPA requires the Solar for All program to operate within a five-year period, during which all allocated funds must be utilized.
The MI Solar for All team will provide various opportunities for engagement and feedback, including public meetings and requests for information.
More information will be available as these options are developed, so please sign up for email updates and check the MI Solar for All page for more information.
