Section 145.70  Use of Roster of Certified Assessors

a)         Should either party request a panel of certified assessors from OSFM, OSFM will select at random from the roster a panel numbering not less than 2 times the number of assessors required and provide that list within 7 days after receiving the request.

b)         The parties shall augment the number by a factor of 50% by designating certified assessors who may serve as alternates to the primary assessors.

c)         The parties shall select certified assessors from the list supplied by OSFM.

d)         The parties shall notify OSFM, within 7 days following the receipt of the list, of the assessors they have selected.  If the parties fail to notify OSFM of their selection of certified assessors within the 7 days, OSFM shall appoint the certified assessors required from the list of certified assessors provided.

e)         Unless the parties agree to an alternate selection procedure, each party shall alternatively strike a name from the list provided by OSFM until the required number of assessors remains.  A coin toss shall determine which party strikes the first name. 

f)         In the event a certified assessor is not able to participate in the assessment center for which he or she was selected, either of the parties involved in the promotion process may request that additional names of certified assessors be provided by OSFM.  [50 ILCS 742/50(h)]
