Community involvement and public participation are an essential part of EGLE’s mission, vision, and values.
SARA Title III establishes requirements regarding emergency planning and "Community Right-to-Know" reporting on hazardous and toxic chemicals for federal, state, local, and tribal governments, as well as regulated facilities.
Tracking and understanding all of the state and federal environmental regulations affecting local governments can be a daunting task. We provide simple explanations and helpful resources for the regulatory programs that apply to local government operations and access to funding resources that promote sustainability on this page.

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 is hosting this meeting to discuss a Response Activity Plan (ResAP) submitted for the Northeast Gravel site in Belmont, Michigan.
The purpose of the meeting is to inform area residents and the general public about the contents of the ResAP. EGLE is accepting public comments on the ResAP from November 1, 2026 through December 1, 2026.
Northeast Gravel operated a former landfill at 3769 Cannonsburg Road NE (formerly 4300 Cannonsburg Road NE) comprised of three waste cells:
The current owner of the property, Boulder Creek Development Company (BCDC), submitted a ResAP to conduct a feasibility study of the former waste cells. The feasibility study is required under the April 24, 2026 Administrative Order by Consent between the State of Michigan and Boulder Creek Development Company, the current owner of the property. The feasibility study will propose potential remedies to control the ongoing release of per and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from the waste cells on the Property to area groundwater and surface water bodies.
The ResAP describes field investigation activities that will be conducted to determine the extent of the tannery waste cell, evaluate the existing tannery waste cell cap components, and collect seasonal groundwater measurements in the vicinity of the waste cells. These proposed field investigation activities will include the advancement of test trenches along the outside of the tannery waste cell, test pits on top of the tannery waste cell, and piezometers around the waste cells.

A paper copy of the report is also available for review at the Plainfield Charter Township offices.
