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.

If your project is less than 1 acre of total earth disturbance, a Local Soil Erosion Permit may be required. Permit triggers may vary, but typically a permit is required for any project within 500 feet of a lake or stream regardless of size, or for any project OVER 1 acre in earth disturbance. If your project is greater than 500 feet from a lake or stream and under 1 acre in total earth disturbance, you should still contact your local agency to determine if a permit is required, as some counties and municipalities have ordinances that are more restrictive. Specific application and permit requirements can be found by contacting the county or municipal agency where the work is occurring or visiting their website.
