Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Environmental Protection Act. Dictates, for the purpose of payment from the Underground Storage Tank Fund, that corrective action activities required to meet minimum requirements include compliance with certain provisions related to the Tiered Approach to Corrective Action Objective (TACO) rules. Requires that the bidding process adopted, under Board rules, to determine the reasonableness of costs of corrective action provide for a publicly-noticed, competitive, and sealed bidding process that is, among other things, optional and allows bidding only if the owner or operator demonstrates that corrective action cannot be performed for less than a certain amount. Decreases the deductible that must be applied before an owner or operator may access moneys in the Fund. Authorizes the Environmental Protection Agency, each fiscal year, subject to appropriation, to commit up to $10 million of the moneys in the Fund, which have been appropriated for the payment of corrective action costs, to the payment of corrective action costs for legacy sites that meet certain criteria. Grants the Agency certain rulemaking authority. Defines "legacy site". Provides that the Petroleum Underground Storage Tank Title of the Environmental Protection Act applies to all underground storage tank releases for which a No Further Remediation Letter is issued on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly, but that (i) costs incurred prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act shall be payable from the Underground Storage Tank Fund in the same manner as allowed under the law in effect at the time the costs were incurred and (ii) releases for which corrective action was completed prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act shall be eligible for a No Further Remediation Letter in the same manner as allowed under the law in effect at the time the corrective action was completed. Provides that, if a change in State or federal law requires additional remedial action in response to releases for which No Further Remediation Letters have been issued, then the Agency shall propose in the next convening of a regular session of the current General Assembly amendments to the Title to allow owners and operators to perform the additional remedial action and seek payment from the Fund for the costs of the action. Authorizes payment from the Fund of certain costs incurred after the issuance of a No Further Remediation Letter. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Provides that, if certain requirements are met, then payment may be made from the Underground Storage Tank Fund for the disposal of soil that does not exceed industrial/commercial property remediation objectives, but that does exceed residential property remediation objectives. Provides that, if certain requirements are met, then payment may be made from the Underground Storage Tank Fund for the disposal of water exceeding groundwater remediation objectives that is removed from an excavation on the site where the release occurred.
