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.

Here at EGLE, we gather data and create ways to visualize data to make informed decisions in the work that we do.
We strive to innovate the ways we use powerful location-based tools to support EGLE's mission of protecting Michigan's environment and public health.
Every single division in the department uses GIS, which stands for Geographic Information Systems. GIS provides a way to map, analyze, and collect data that has a spatial component (like an address or coordinates).
Using GIS tools, we can visualize a location on a map and then we can layer many different types of locations on the same map. If we combine this location data with information about the location, GIS helps us better understand spatial patterns. GIS allows us to connect "where things are" with "what things are".
EGLE Open Data provides direct access to GIS datasets that are available to be shared with the public.
Open Data contains spatial layers related to the work done by EGLE. You can download this data in various formats; including Shapefiles (.shp), KMZ, or spreadsheets (.xls, .csv)
This depends on the dataset. Some items are fairly static while others are updated on more frequent cycles. The EGLE data through this site is the most current available. Note: Many of EGLE’s open data layers are updated on a daily, weekly, monthly, or regular basis through live data integrations and these changes are not reflected in the last updated date on this website. Please refer to the individual data layers' metadate, which will have true update frequency detailed.
