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.

As important as money, labor, and location are to brownfield redevelopment, at the end of the day it’s a business built on relationships. It’s easier to find solutions to problems that can crop up during a project if the developers, local units of government, environmental consultants, and EGLE brownfield coordinators have a working relationship that goes back before the grant or loan was awarded.
That’s why EGLE is inviting participants to in-person Brownfield Stakeholder Workshops starting March 13. EGLE brownfield staff will provide an overview of the program including grants and loans, tax increment financing, free environmental site assessments, and expedited environmental reviews for housing projects. Time will be set aside for participants to offer direct feedback to EGLE staff.
The Brownfield Stakeholder Workshops are recommended for environmental consultants, local government officials, developers, and anyone else who works on brownfield redevelopment projects. Registration is closed for the Grand Rapids and Livonia events on March 4 and March 6. The remaining workshops run from 1pm-5pm on the following days:
Registration is $30.
