Every year, EGLE releases an end-of-year report. Are there any milestones or initiatives you're particularly proud of that were included in this year's report? Brownfield redevelopment was highlighted in the report. Could you explain what the Brownfield Redevelopment Program is and its significance for communities across Michigan? What kind of measurable impact has the program had on Michigan's economy, environment and quality of life? The governor recently released her FY 26 budget recommendations. How do her recommendations support brownfield redevelopment as well as environmental sustainability and economic development? Contaminated and abandoned sites once seen as community liabilities are now thriving hubs of economic growth and revitalization across Michigan. Since 2019, the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy's (EGLE) Brownfield Redevelopment Program has helped create 19,000 jobs, transforming 402 properties into vibrant spaces for businesses, housing and public use.
