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.

MiEnviro Portal contains a feature called Site Map Explorer. You can use this feature to explore thousands of publicly available documents and other information. Many members of the public use Site Map Explorer to find out about permit applications, current permits, and violation notices in their neighborhood.
Note: While Site Map Explorer provides public access to many documents, it is not intended to be a complete record for a site. Some older records, such as violations prior to October 1, 2015, and draft documents are not accessible through Site Map Explorer.
While using Site Map Explorer within MiEnviro Portal, you can find a "Help" section at any time. Select the information icon to review the different tools and widgets within the app.
The first screen of Site Map Explorer shows the entire state with many purple dots with a number inside. These dots tell you how many sites are in the vicinity of the middle of that dot. As you zoom in, those dots will turn into more dots with smaller numbers as the area they represent gets smaller.
Eventually the dots will separate out into individual points, which you may then select to get more information. Not sure how to sort through these results? Keep scrolling!
There are multiple ways to narrow down the results other than zooming in and out on the map.
While zooming in and out can help narrow down results in a specific area, the search bar can be used to narrow results regardless of location.
Keywords can be generic terms such as boardwalk, seawall, or fill; or, they may be names of entities, such as MSU, Dow, or McLaren. This will narrow the results very quickly.
The advanced search feature allows you to input specific search criteria such as an evaluation number, site number, or SIC code. You may also search by address, including zip code.
Using the zip code feature here rather than the simple search bar ensures results returned are in the zip code of your choosing.
Narrow your results even further by using the filters to search by categories such as active permits, applications currently in process, compliance notices, escalated enforcement, and county.
Combine multiple filter choices to find exactly what you're looking for.
Once you've narrowed the search results down and have located the site you're interested in, selecting that site will bring up its site profile. You may need to select "show more information" to fully expand the menu. Keep scrolling to learn what's included.
Basic information is displayed in the site's profile. This includes the address, site contacts, any additional names, aliases, or IDs (e.g. permit numbers) associated with the site, and a preview of the environmental interest(s).
This shows the locations of all the features relating to the site. White dots and shapes indicate related sites. Additional details are provided when selecting any of these items.
Listed here are cross program permits (both active and expired) related to the site. Additionally, CSO or SSO reported discharges can be reviewed here. The filters at the top of the panel can be used to refine the list of records.
Note: This tab does not appear on all sites, as sites may not have any permit or reporting-related information available.
Listed here are inspections, violations, and enforcement actions related to the site. The filters at the top of the panel can be used to refine the list of evaluations, related violations, and enforcement actions. Selecting the plus sign next to a record will provide more details.
Note: This tab does not appear on all sites, as sites may not have any compliance-related information available. Violations assessed prior to October 1, 2015, are not displayed in Site Map Explorer.
Here you'll find links to documents EGLE has published related to the site. Click or tap the blue file title to open the document.
To download multiple documents, select the checkbox next to the document and click the 'download # documents' button.
