Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Environmental Protection Act; the Rivers, Lakes, and Streams Act; and the Livestock Management Facilities Act. Defines "100-year floodplain" as the lowland and relatively flat areas adjoining inland and coastal waters, including flood-prone areas of offshore islands, that are inundated by a flood that has a 1% or greater chance of recurring in any given year or a flood of a magnitude equalled or exceeded once in 100 years on the average over a significantly long period. Provides that areas that lie within an area protected by a levee or levees located in a flood prevention district established by the Flood Prevention District Act are deemed by operation of law not to be within the 100-year floodplain for the purposes of these Acts. Provides that to the extent that Executive Order 2006-5 is inconsistent with the provisions of this amendatory Act, the provisions of this amendatory Act shall govern. Effective immediately.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1

Adds reference to:
415 ILCS 5/3.102 new

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the bill as amended by Senate Committee Amendment No. 1, with the following changes: (1) defines "100-year flood" in the Environmental Protection Act and (2) changes the conditions under which an area may be deemed by operation of law not to be within the 100-year floodplain. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Adds reference to:
615 ILCS 5/18i new
615 ILCS 5/18j new

Provides that areas that lie within a flood prevention district established in accordance with the Flood Prevention District Act shall be deemed by operation of law to be within the 100-year floodplain if, according to the currently adopted federal flood insurance rate map, those areas are subject to inundation by a 100-year flood from bodies of water other than the Mississippi River. Provides that nothing in this amendatory Act shall be construed to diminish or conflict with the authority and the obligation of local governments to adopt and enforce local ordinances and regulations necessary to maintain eligibility to participate fully in the National Flood Insurance Program and for property owners to purchase federal flood insurance. Provides that any critical facility that gives shelter to a person who would be unable to evacuate without assistance during a flooding event, and that is located in an area deemed by operation of law not to be within the 100-year floodplain because the area in which the critical facility is located lies within an area protected by a federal levee and is located in a flood prevention district established in accordance with the Flood Prevention District Act shall develop an evacuation plan and certify to the Emergency Services and Disaster Agency, on a form provided by the ESDA, that it has developed an evacuation plan which the critical facility has or will implement prior to or concurrent with occupancy of the facility in order to evacuate persons who need assistance evacuating the facility and the flooded area.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Deletes reference to:
510 ILCS 77/10.3

Removes a provision in the Livestock Management Facilities Act that defines the term "100-year floodplain". Requires certain local governments to adopt and maintain ordinances and floodplain management regulations that meet certain federal requirements only if those governments choose to participate in the National Flood Insurance Program.
