Good morning. Hopefully you have all been looped into the changes we have happening here with our department. As of Monday we are now officially the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy. We continue to learn more daily and should be able to share a more comprehensive update next time we meet. Beyond a new name and logo, we also have a new bulletin that we issue regularly to help people keep in touch with what’s going on in EGLE. It’s called MI Environment and provides a lot of great information. If you’re not already subscribed, I’d encourage you to at least check it out and consider subscribing. The latest article highlights National DEA Takeback Day coming up this Saturday, April 27 from 10 to 2. Please help your communities participate by sharing information on the event with them if you haven’t already. We expect to tweet on this tomorrow, so please join us in retweeting if you can. As always, thanks for the support and let me know if you have any questions!

Regards,
