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.

Ozone season in Michigan begins today -- March 1 -- and runs through the end of September. The Air Quality Division meteorologists at the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy keep their eyes on the skies year-round and continued to evaluate air quality forecasts, which may cause them to call for Clean Air Action Days when necessary. These are days when weather conditions may cause air to be unhealthy for some individuals. On Clean Air Action Days, people are encouraged to change their activities to minimize their exposure.
Clean Air Action days are called when levels of ozone or particulate matter put people at risk. During ozone season, the likelihood of a Clean Air Action Day being called is increased. High ozone near the ground can have harmful effects for sensitive individuals. People may sign up to receive air quality alerts to be better prepared on those days when ozone is high.
Two Air Quality Division meteorologists talk about Clean Air Action Days and why they are important in a short educational video meant to encourage people to sign-up to get air quality alerts and to take action when weather conditions may increase impacts on sensitive people.
