Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

(70 ILCS 805/18.6a) (from Ch. 96 1/2, par. 6340a)
Sec. 18.6a.
Each forest preserve district which has on its property a
sanitary landfill or pollution control facility may create,
maintain and increase a separate fund to be known as the "Landfill Expense
Fund" for the purpose of paying all costs and expenses incurred by said
forest preserve district for or as a result of that sanitary landfill or pollution control facility either during its operation or after
its closure, including but not limited to the cost of maintenance,
monitoring, sampling or testing of groundwater or landfill gas, fencing,
erosion control, improvements, restoration, filling,
covering, revegetation, seeding, regrading, compacting, excavating or
removal of materials, remedial action, response, the collection, treatment
or disposal of leachate and landfill gas, preventive and corrective actions
necessary or appropriate in circumstances which will or may cause an
immediate or long-term danger to the environment or the public health or
which will or may prevent or delay public usage of the property, and
payment of damages or settlements awarded or made as a result of the
operation of the sanitary landfill or pollution control facility,
either during its operation or after its closure. This fund may be invested as provided in this Act and interest
accumulated thereon.
In order to accumulate monies for this fund, each
forest preserve district having such a fund may, in addition to other
charges imposed for the deposit of material at the sanitary landfill or pollution control facility by the owner or operator of the
landfill, also impose a charge upon the operator or users of a landfill
or facility in existence on or before July 1, 1988 sufficient to
provide a fund which will pay for the costs set forth herein; however,
such charge shall not exceed 70¢ per cubic yard of solid waste permanently
disposed of at the landfill or facility.
