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.

The Michigan Clean Water Corps (MiCorps) is the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy’s (EGLE) statewide volunteer monitoring program and includes the Volunteer Stream Cleanup Program, funded by the sale of the state's Water Quality Protection license plates.
In 2024, EGLE made available $40,155 in grant funding to local units of government to implement trash cleanup of rivers, streams, and creeks. Municipalities often partner with nonprofit organizations or other volunteer groups to carry out cleanups.
