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 GeoWebFace application is one of the largest publicly accessible record sets in Michigan. Users can view information about non-renewable geological resource activities regulated under: Part 615 "Oil and Gas Rules and Regulations", Part 625 "Mineral Wells", Part 631 "Mine Reclamation", Part 632 "Nonferrous Metallic Mining", Part 635 "Coal Mines", and Part 637 "Sand Dune Mining".
You may also download oil and gas datasets such as Driller's Logs, Permit Well Files, and RasterLogs for selected wells or by the county. Base map features and image backdrops are included as well as layers specific to this application. With the GeoWebFace application, you can locate oil and gas wells and mining sites, as well as display associated geologic information including Glacial Geology, Structural Geology, Outcrops, Bedrock Geology, Gravity, Magnetics, Shaded Relief, Hillshade, Waterfall Locations, Wetlands Inventory, Town, Range, and Section, State Ownership, & State Mineral Leases, Federal Lands, and National Forests.
The GeoWebFace originated in and is sponsored by our Oil, Gas, and Minerals Division.

Significant GeoWebFace enhancements have been made to increase its usefulness and ease of data access especially in the area of mining and minerals. These include the ability to identify on any layer to get more information and to be able to click on a hyperlink (“More Info”) to an external website, map cross-section or document. One can also select features from any layer and view additional information in the Results Tab. From the Result Tab you can export the data to an Excel spreadsheet.
Many enhancements have been made to the table of contents (Layer Tools Tab) including combining the layers list and the legend, collapsible major layer categories, and clear identification of scale dependent layers. Other enhancement include increasing the Results Tab capability from 200 to 5000 records, better printing, and many more options for labeling oil & gas wells. 30 additional layers have been added mostly focusing on mining and minerals and Michigan geology.
Do not trespass. A property's inclusion in the GeoWebFace application does not grant or otherwise imply that access is allowed or authorized.
