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.

EGLE offers matching grants to accelerate the implementation of energy efficiency for small manufacturers, through the Retooling Program. This program will help fund manufacturing process improvements that reduce energy use and cost per unit produced. As the MI Healthy Climate Plan recognizes, Michigan's industrial sector represents one of the state's greatest strengths, not only economically, but also on the path to decarbonization. Michigan has the 5th largest advanced manufacturing workforce in the country, with more than 65,000 workers employed in that sector in 2019. The Retooling Program is designed to help small Michigan manufacturers take advantage of opportunities to both strengthen the resiliency of their businesses and decarbonize our economy, to mitigate the worst outcomes of climate change.
Applicants are encouraged to discuss their proposal and any questions with the program contact prior to submittal. Technical assistance is also available through the Retired Engineers, Scientists, Technicians, Administrators, Researchers and Teachers (RESTART) program. RESTART offers free onsite energy efficiency and sustainability technical assistance and assessments to small and medium-sized commercial businesses throughout Michigan.

Applicants agree to:
No. This funding opportunity is specifically for upgrades that improve the energy efficiency of the manufacturing process.
Other sources of funding (like utility rebates) are generally fine with a major exception: federal funds (such as USDA REAP) cannot be used as match. Retooling grant funding comes from a federal source (US Department of Energy), and we are not allowed to use other federal funds as the match.
No. This is due to restrictions on how federal funding is used. Cannabis is illegal at the federal level.
Non-profits that operate as a small manufacturing business (<500 employees worldwide) physically located in Michigan (as described in Section 1-D of the RFP) are eligible to apply. These grants are not designed for municipalities.
