Section 430.10  Purpose

This Part establishes the State of Illinois policy for the immediate notification of an accident or incident and subsequent written report as required that involves the release of a reportable hazardous material or extremely hazardous substance or, in the case of a transportation incident, a hazardous material.  The procedures in this Part provide for a centralized and expedient method for alerting State and local planning and response agencies about a potential or actual release, so that an appropriate emergency response system can be activated if necessary.
