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.

RRD is digitizing all records to make them publicly available through RIDE. The public can access those records that have already been scanned and filed in our electronic document management system. A backlog of paper documents is still being scanned, and therefore not all documents are currently available through RIDE. However, the number of files available through RIDE continues to grow.
You do not need a RIDE account to access these documents; they are available to any member of the public by navigating to RIDE. If you cannot find the records that you are seeking by using RIDE, you can file a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
There are two methods to view and download documents. Users can view and download multiple documents at once using the ‘Document Download’ module. Also, users can view the documents for a specific facility using the ‘Inventory of Facilities’ module. Guidance on both of these methods are provided below.
Navigate to RIDE (egle.state.mi.us/RIDE/home) and select the Documents Download button.
Search for a specific facility’s files by entering the Location ID or address.
The document table will filter to the files for the facility you are searching. Select the documents you want to download by clicking the checkbox next to the document. Files can be sorted using the arrows next to the headers and viewed by selecting the ‘view’ icon.
Important Note: There are size limitations, including no more than 50 records or 1,024 MB at a time. The total MB will display on the download button.
Select the ‘Download File(s)’ button and the documents should download to a zip file. The download may take a few minutes.
Navigate to RIDE (egle.state.mi.us/RIDE/home) and select the Inventory of Facilities button.
Scroll to the table below and search for a specific facility by entering the facility ID, name, address, or other known fields.
When you find your facility, select the ellipses on the far right. You may need to scroll to the right.
Select the "Files" panel and scroll to the table. Files can be sorted using the arrows next to the headers and downloaded by selecting the "view" icon. Files can be downloaded one at a time. There is no functionality for mass downloads.
