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.

Sec. 11. Federal-State Agreements.
(1) The Governor, on behalf of this
State, is authorized to enter into agreements with the Federal Government
providing for discontinuance of certain of the Federal Government's
responsibilities with respect to sources of ionizing radiation and the
assumption thereof by this State, including, but not limited to, agreements
concerning by-product material as defined in Section 11(e)(2) of the Atomic
Energy Act of 1954, 42 U.S.C. 2014(e)(2).
(2) Any person who, on the effective date of an agreement under
subsection (1) above, possesses a license issued by the Federal Government
governing activities for which the Federal Government, pursuant to such
agreement, is transferring its responsibilities to this State shall be
deemed to possess the same pursuant to a license issued under this Act,
which shall expire 90 days after receipt from the Department of Nuclear
Safety (or its successor agency, the Illinois Emergency Management Agency)
of a notice of
expiration of such license, or on the date of expiration specified in the
Federal license, whichever is earlier.
(3) At such time as Illinois enters into a Federal-State Agreement in
accordance with the provisions of this Act, the Agency shall
license
and collect license fees from persons operating radiation installations,
including installations involving the use or possession of by-product
material as defined in subsection (a-5)(2) of Section 4 and installations
having such devices or equipment utilizing or producing radioactive
materials but licensure shall not apply to any x-ray machine, including
those located in an office of a licensed physician or dentist. The
Agency may also collect license fees from persons authorized
by the
Agency to engage in decommissioning and decontamination
activities at
radiation installations including installations licensed to use or possess
by-product material as defined in subsection (a-5)(2) of Section 4. The
license fees collected from persons authorized to use or possess by-product
material as defined in subsection (a-5)(2) of Section 4 or to engage in
decommissioning and decontamination activities at radiation installations
where such by-product material is used or possessed may include fees
sufficient to cover the expenses incurred by the Department in conjunction
with monitoring unlicensed properties contaminated with by-product material
as defined in subsection (a-5)(2) of Section 4 and overseeing the
decontamination of such unlicensed properties.
The Agency may impose fees for termination of licenses
including, but
not limited to, licenses for refining uranium mill concentrates to uranium
hexafluoride; licenses for possession and use of source material at ore
buying stations, at ion exchange facilities and at facilities where ore is
processed to extract metals other than uranium or thorium; and licenses
authorizing the use or possession of by-product material as defined in
subsection (a-5)(2) of Section 4. The Agency may also set
license fees
for licenses which authorize the distribution of devices, products, or
sealed sources involved in the production, utilization, or containment of
radiation. After a public hearing before the Agency, the
fees and
collection procedures shall be prescribed under rules and regulations for
protection against radiation hazards promulgated under this Act.
(4) The Agency is authorized to enter into agreements
related to
the receipt and expenditure of federal grants and other funds to provide
assistance to states and compact regions in fulfilling responsibilities
under the federal Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act, as amended.
