This page provides a listing of all MDE approvals by MDE administration.  Linked to each numbered item in the list are fact sheets that describe salient details of each approval.  At the beginning of each fact sheet are one or two questions that will help you determine whether that particular approval may be required. Each fact sheet answers the following questions, where applicable:

• Do I need this approval?
• What must I do to get this approval?
• How long will it take to get the approval once I submit a complete and accurate application?
• Who do I contact with questions about this approval?
• Do I need to get any approvals from my local or Federal government before I can get this approval?
• How much will the approval cost?
• Once I get the approval, how long will the permit last?
• Do I need to know any other information to get this approval?
• If you need this, you’ll probably need that: What other approvals might I need for this activity?
• What is MDE’s legal authority to issue this approval?

Listings of all the questions found on top of the fact sheets, MDE program contacts, and MDE approvals by type of activity, site, and equipment, among other materials that could assist you are available on the Approval Resources page.
