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.

Inspections by geologists on the Oil, Gas and Minerals Division (OGMD) staff are a very important aspect of Michigan's regulatory oversight of the oil, gas, gas storage, injection well and mineral well industries.
Wells that are constructed deep below the earth's surface are inspected as they are being drilled, throughout the well's operational life and when the well is ultimately plugged and abandoned.
A strong inspection presence encourages industry to work closely with OGMD staff to identify and correct any issues of noncompliance. Staff geologists understand an area's geology and hydrogeology, which allows them to identify unique hazards, closely oversee remedial actions, investigate odor complaints, identify leaks and sources of fugitive emissions, and build relationships with local stakeholders.
