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.

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) and Health Department of Northwest Michigan (HDNW) are holding a public meeting to provide the community updates on the Wickes TCE groundwater plume and the associated Well First Policy. For more information please check out our flyer.
The Wickes Manufacturing Trichloroethylene (TCE) Plume is in Antrim County.
Mount Clemens Industries Inc., later known as Wickes Manufacturing, used TCE in vapor degreasers as part of the manufacturing of auto parts in Mancelona from 1947 to 1967.
Waste containing TCE was discarded on the ground and in lagoons, where it seeped through the soil and became dissolved into the groundwater.
Both companies went out of business many years ago. As a results, DEQ (now EGLE) funds have been allocated to address the TCE contamination.
