Short description: 
POLLUTION PREVENTION-TECHNICAL                                             

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Illinois Pollution Prevention Act to make a  technical      
   change.                                                                     
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                
          Adds reference to:                                                   
          415 ILCS 5/22.15                                                     
        Replaces the title and  everything  after  the  enacting  clause.      
   Amends  the Environmental Protection Act to limit the use of the local      
   fee, tax, or surcharge imposed by a unit of local  government  on  the      
   transfer  or  disposal  of  solid waste to certain environment-related      
   purposes.  Provides that the fee, tax,  or  surcharge  on  transferred      
   waste  may  not  exceed  52%  of  the total fees, taxes, or surcharges      
   imposed on that waste. Provides that if the disposal  of  waste  at  a      
   landfill  is  subject  to a fee imposed by a unit of local government,      
   the maximum fee authorized on the transfer of waste to  that  landfill      
   may  not  exceed  46%  (48%  in  underlying  bill)  of  the total fees      
   authorized for the transfer and disposal of the waste.  Prohibits  the      
   imposition of the local fee, tax, or surcharge on waste transferred to      
   a  landfill  that  is  owned  by  a  unit  of  local government and is      
   operational on the effective date of  this  amendatory  Act  of  1997.      
   Deletes the provision allowing units of local government to enter into      
   intergovernmental  agreements to share the fees, taxes, or surcharges.      
   Adds immediate effective date.                                              
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 2.                                                
        Provides that units of local government may not  impose  a  fee,       
   tax,  or  surcharge  on  waste  transferred to a landfill subject to a      
   disposal agreement with a Municipal Joint Action  Agency.    Specifies      
   that  certain  landfills  are  exempt  from  the  local  fee,  tax, or      
   surcharge if the landfill is permitted on the effective date  of  this      
   amendatory Act.
