The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy’s (EGLE) Water Well Viewer (WWV), is an interactive mapping system that displays water wells along with other information, such as wellhead protection areas, underground storage tanks, and sites of environmental contamination. Water well locations have been identified by address matching, the use of global positioning systems (GPS), and by legal descriptions.
This system allows water well drilling and pump installation contractors to submit water well records.
EGLE's interactive calendar is designed to provide timely information on decisions before the Director, proposed settlements of contested cases, administrative rules promulgation, public hearings, meetings and comment deadlines, and environmental conferences, workshops and training programs.

New Flint Air Monitoring Station. Michigan’s air monitoring network is made up of a series of locations throughout the state. These sites collect information about a variety of pollutants, such as ozone, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, lead and fine particulates that may be present in the ambient (outdoor) air. The monitoring network is a key element in making sure the air we breathe in Michigan is healthy.
In June 2025, the air monitoring station in Flint, run by the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Air Monitoring Section was broken into. Equipment was stolen and the building and fence were damaged. This was not the first time this had happened. Monitoring air quality in Flint is important to EGLE and the success of our air monitoring network, but it is even more important for Flint residents.
After finding for a new location at Crossroads Village and Huckleberry Railroad Park, construction on the new site began. The Genessee County Parks Department was instrumental in the speed of installing the new equipment by helping pour the concrete pad and making sure EGLE staff had access to the site. Air Monitoring Section staff worked hard to make sure the site had all its electrical and mechanical needs met so monitoring could begin as soon as possible.
“We’re pleased to see Flint’s air monitoring station up and running once again, ensuring critical, real‑time data is available to local families,” said EGLE Director Phil Ros. “Reliable air quality information empowers residents to make informed choices about their health and well-being. This milestone reflects the importance of strong partnerships and teamwork in protecting Michigan communities.”
The site monitors for:
Ozone from March 1st-October 31st
Flint Station reporting to the Michigan.gov/MiAir dashboard. Ozone and PM2.5 data is reported to EGLE’s MiAir and to the US Environmental Protection Agency’s AirNow websites. These sites provide real time air quality information called the Air Quality Index or AQI. The AQI is color coded tool that helps communicate air quality conditions to the public.

By using recycled materials, the manufacturing of new batteries consumes less energy, water, and natural resources. Proper recycling can also mitigate fires, reducing risk to lives and infrastructure. Recovering batteries also strengthens circular supply chains and reduces dependence on foreign sources of critical minerals, encourages innovation, and creates local jobs.
