Public Records at DEQ

Can’t find it online?

Submit a request on our online public records request portal.

Our online portal allows you to track the status of your requests, pay fees and download your records directly. If you are having difficulty using the portal, please contact us at RecordsRequest@deq.oregon.gov or 503-960-6210 for assistance.

DEQ will respond to your request within 15 business days, at which time we will either provide you the requested records, inform you there are no records, or provide a reasonable timeframe within which we expect to complete the request.

We automatically waive the first 30 minutes of time spent on records requests. If we anticipate there will be fees associated with your request, we will send an estimate for your review and approval before proceeding.
