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.

It is illegal to dispose of whole motor vehicle tires in Michigan landfills.
The Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy's (EGLE) Scrap Tire Program is responsible for overseeing the handling of scrap tires generated in Michigan, cleaning up existing scrap tire piles of 500 or more tires, and expanding the reuse and recycling of scrap tires.
Scrap Tire Oversight
The Program regulates transportation, storage, and disposal of scrap tires under Part 169, Scrap Tires, of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA
451, as amended.
An annual registration is required for scrap tire transporters and collection sites. Program staff regularly inspects scrap tire collection sites, processors, end-users, and generators, which include tire dealers and auto scrap yards.
Scrap tires can be hazardous to our environment and the public health of Michigan if not properly managed. Run-off from scrap tire fires can contaminate water and scrap tire sites are an ideal habitat for the breeding of mosquitoes carrying disease such as West Nile Virus.
Check out the latest Into the Outdoors video, Into Recycling: Scrap Tires (funded, in part by an EGLE grant) that highlights scrap tire recycling successes in Michigan and across the United States.
