EGLE has launched an internal Community Engagement Database to strengthen connections with community-based organizations across the state. This map-based tool allows our Community Engagement Specialist to easily identify local organizations, professional groups, trade associations, and other partners.
The database helps EGLE:
- Build and maintain relationships with community partners
- Share timely and relevant information
- Keep organization contact details organized in one central location
For example, when EGLE hosts a public meeting about a facility or project, the database allows us to quickly identify nearby community organizations and contact them directly. This helps ensure that information reaches as many interested groups as possible.
