MI SB0275

Requires the Department of Environmental Quality to provide applicants without charge with a detailed list of required information, a blank permit application form, completion instructions, and an explanation of the permit review process, and to post these documents on its website.

Establishes that permit applications are considered administratively complete on the earlier of the department's determination or 30 days after submission, with the 30-day period tolled if the department notifies the applicant of missing information or unpaid fees.

Prohibits the department from requesting new or additional information beyond what is specified in the required information list after an application is deemed administratively complete, unless the request includes a detailed explanation of why the information is needed, and applicants are not required to provide such information.

Allows the department to request clarification, amplification, or correction of information that was required for the application after administrative completeness is determined.

Requires the director to submit an annual report by December 1 to legislative committees detailing permit application statistics including the number received, approved, denied, processing times, and any instances where 10% or more of applications for a permit type were not processed within required timeframes.
