Michigan Compiled Laws, Chapter 324. Natural Resources and Environmental Protection § 324.79111

Sec. 79111. A lease entered into by the department under this part shall not be issued without consideration. However, the department may establish annual lease payments, which reduce the initial financial burden on the lessee as much as is reasonably possible, with subsequent payments to be appropriately increased to assure payment of the total lease obligation prior to the termination of the lease.
