Section, except as may otherwise be permitted under this Act.
(b-5) An individual may place a wager under the pari-mutuel system
from any licensed location authorized under this Act provided that
wager is electronically recorded in the manner described in Section
3.12 of this Act. Any wager made electronically by an individual while
physically on the premises of a licensee shall be deemed to have been
made at the premises of that licensee.
(c) Until January 1, 2000, the sum held by any licensee for
payment of outstanding pari-mutuel tickets, if unclaimed prior to
December 31 of the next year, shall be retained by the licensee for
payment of such tickets until that date. Within 10 days thereafter,
the balance of such sum remaining unclaimed, less any uncashed
supplements contributed by such licensee for the purpose of
guaranteeing minimum distributions of any pari-mutuel pool, shall be
paid to the Illinois Veterans' Rehabilitation Fund of the State
treasury, except as provided in subsection (g) of Section 27 of this
Act.
(c-5) Beginning January 1, 2000, the sum held by any licensee for
payment of outstanding pari-mutuel tickets, if unclaimed prior to
December 31 of the next year, shall be retained by the licensee for
payment of such tickets until that date. Within 10 days thereafter,
the balance of such sum remaining unclaimed, less any uncashed
supplements contributed by such licensee for the purpose of
guaranteeing minimum distributions of any pari-mutuel pool, shall be
evenly distributed to the purse account of the organization licensee
and the organization licensee.
(d) A pari-mutuel ticket shall be honored until December 31 of the
next calendar year, and the licensee shall pay the same and may charge
the amount thereof against unpaid money similarly accumulated on
account of pari-mutuel tickets not presented for payment.
(e) No licensee shall knowingly permit any minor, other than an
employee of such licensee or an owner, trainer, jockey, driver, or
employee thereof, to be admitted during a racing program unless
accompanied by a parent or guardian, or any minor to be a patron of the
pari-mutuel system of wagering conducted or supervised by it. The
admission of any unaccompanied minor, other than an employee of the
licensee or an owner, trainer, jockey, driver, or employee thereof at a
race track is a Class C misdemeanor.
(f) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Act, an
organization licensee may contract with an entity in another state or
country to permit any legal wagering entity in another state or country
to accept wagers solely within such other state or country on races
conducted by the organization licensee in this State. Beginning January
1, 2000, these wagers shall not be subject to State taxation. Until
January 1, 2000, when the out-of-State entity conducts a pari-mutuel
pool separate from the organization licensee, a privilege tax equal to
7 1/2% of all monies received by the organization licensee from
entities in other states or countries pursuant to such contracts is
[May 3, 2001] 14
imposed on the organization licensee, and such privilege tax shall be
remitted to the Department of Revenue within 48 hours of receipt of the
moneys from the simulcast. When the out-of-State entity conducts a
combined pari-mutuel pool with the organization licensee, the tax shall
be 10% of all monies received by the organization licensee with 25% of
the receipts from this 10% tax to be distributed to the county in which
the race was conducted.
An organization licensee may permit one or more of its races to be
utilized for pari-mutuel wagering at one or more locations in other
states and may transmit audio and visual signals of races the
organization licensee conducts to one or more locations outside the
State or country and may also permit pari-mutuel pools in other states
or countries to be combined with its gross or net wagering pools or
with wagering pools established by other states.
(g) A host track may accept interstate simulcast wagers on horse
races conducted in other states or countries and shall control the
number of signals and types of breeds of racing in its simulcast
program, subject to the disapproval of the Board. The Board may
prohibit a simulcast program only if it finds that the simulcast
program is clearly adverse to the integrity of racing. The host track
simulcast program shall include the signal of live racing of all
organization licensees. All non-host licensees shall carry the host
track simulcast program and accept wagers on all races included as part
of the simulcast program upon which wagering is permitted. The costs
and expenses of the host track and non-host licensees associated with
interstate simulcast wagering, other than the interstate commission
fee, shall be borne by the host track and all non-host licensees
incurring these costs. The interstate commission fee shall not exceed
5% of Illinois handle on the interstate simulcast race or races without
prior approval of the Board. The Board shall promulgate rules under
which it may permit interstate commission fees in excess of 5%. The
interstate commission fee and other fees charged by the sending
racetrack, including, but not limited to, satellite decoder fees, shall
be uniformly applied to the host track and all non-host licensees.
(1) Between the hours of 6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. an
intertrack wagering licensee other than the host track may
supplement the host track simulcast program with additional
simulcast races or race programs, provided that between January 1
and the third Friday in February of any year, inclusive, if no live
thoroughbred racing is occurring in Illinois during this period,
only thoroughbred races may be used for supplemental interstate
simulcast purposes. The Board shall withhold approval for a
supplemental interstate simulcast only if it finds that the
simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of racing. A
supplemental interstate simulcast may be transmitted from an
intertrack wagering licensee to its affiliated non-host licensees.
The interstate commission fee for a supplemental interstate
simulcast shall be paid by the non-host licensee and its affiliated
non-host licensees receiving the simulcast.
(2) Between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. an
intertrack wagering licensee other than the host track may receive
supplemental interstate simulcasts only with the consent of the
host track, except when the Board finds that the simulcast is
clearly adverse to the integrity of racing. Consent granted under
this paragraph (2) to any intertrack wagering licensee shall be
deemed consent to all non-host licensees. The interstate
commission fee for the supplemental interstate simulcast shall be
paid by all participating non-host licensees.
(3) Each licensee conducting interstate simulcast wagering
may retain, subject to the payment of all applicable taxes and the
purses, an amount not to exceed 17% of all money wagered. If any
licensee conducts the pari-mutuel system wagering on races
conducted at racetracks in another state or country, each such race
or race program shall be considered a separate racing day for the
purpose of determining the daily handle and computing the privilege
tax of that daily handle as provided in subsection (a) of Section
15 [May 3, 2001]
27. Until January 1, 2000, from the sums permitted to be retained
pursuant to this subsection, each intertrack wagering location
licensee shall pay 1% of the pari-mutuel handle wagered on
simulcast wagering to the Horse Racing Tax Allocation Fund, subject
to the provisions of subparagraph (B) of paragraph (11) of
subsection (h) of Section 26 of this Act.
(4) A licensee who receives an interstate simulcast may
combine its gross or net pools with pools at the sending racetracks
pursuant to rules established by the Board. All licensees
combining their gross pools at a sending racetrack shall adopt the
take-out percentages of the sending racetrack. A licensee may also
establish a separate pool and takeout structure for wagering
purposes on races conducted at race tracks outside of the State of
Illinois. The licensee may permit pari-mutuel wagers placed in
other states or countries to be combined with its gross or net
wagering pools or other wagering pools.
(5) After the payment of the interstate commission fee
(except for the interstate commission fee on a supplemental
interstate simulcast, which shall be paid by the host track and by
each non-host licensee through the host-track) and all applicable
State and local taxes, except as provided in subsection (g) of
Section 27 of this Act, the remainder of moneys retained from
simulcast wagering pursuant to this subsection (g), and Section
26.2 shall be divided as follows:
(A) For interstate simulcast wagers made at a host
track, 50% to the host track and 50% to purses at the host
track.
(B) For wagers placed on interstate simulcast races,
supplemental simulcasts as defined in subparagraphs (1) and
(2), and separately pooled races conducted outside of the
State of Illinois made at a non-host licensee, 25% to the host
track, 25% to the non-host licensee, and 50% to the purses at
the host track.
(6) Notwithstanding any provision in this Act to the
contrary, non-host licensees who derive their licenses from a track
located in a county with a population in excess of 230,000 and that
borders the Mississippi River may receive supplemental interstate
simulcast races at all times subject to Board approval, which shall
be withheld only upon a finding that a supplemental interstate
simulcast is clearly adverse to the integrity of racing.
(7) Notwithstanding any provision of this Act to the
contrary, after payment of all applicable State and local taxes and
interstate commission fees, non-host licensees who derive their
licenses from a track located in a county with a population in
excess of 230,000 and that borders the Mississippi River shall
retain 50% of the retention from interstate simulcast wagers and
shall pay 50% to purses at the track from which the non-host
licensee derives its license as follows:
(A) Between January 1 and the third Friday in February,
inclusive, if no live thoroughbred racing is occurring in
Illinois during this period, when the interstate simulcast is
a standardbred race, the purse share to its standardbred purse
account;
(B) Between January 1 and the third Friday in February,
inclusive, if no live thoroughbred racing is occurring in
Illinois during this period, and the interstate simulcast is a
thoroughbred race, the purse share to its interstate simulcast
purse pool to be distributed under paragraph (10) of this
subsection (g);
(C) Between January 1 and the third Friday in February,
inclusive, if live thoroughbred racing is occurring in
Illinois, between 6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. the purse share from
wagers made during this time period to its thoroughbred purse
account and between 6:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. the purse share
from wagers made during this time period to its standardbred
purse accounts;
[May 3, 2001] 16
(D) Between the third Saturday in February and December
31, when the interstate simulcast occurs between the hours of
6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m., the purse share to its thoroughbred
purse account;
(E) Between the third Saturday in February and December
31, when the interstate simulcast occurs between the hours of
6:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m., the purse share to its standardbred
purse account.
(7.1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the
contrary, if no standardbred racing is conducted at a racetrack
located in Madison County during any calendar year beginning on or
after January 1, 2002, all moneys derived by that racetrack from
simulcast wagering and inter-track wagering that (1) are to be used
for purses and (2) are generated between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and
6:30 a.m. during that calendar year shall be paid as follows:
(A) If the licensee that conducts horse racing at that
racetrack requests from the Board at least as many racing
dates as were conducted in calendar year 2000, 80% shall be
paid to its thoroughbred purse account; and
(B) Twenty percent shall be deposited into the Illinois
Colt Stakes Purse Distribution Fund and shall be paid to
purses for standardbred races for Illinois conceived and
foaled horses conducted at any county fairgrounds. The moneys
deposited into the Fund pursuant to this subparagraph (B)
shall be deposited within 2 weeks after the day they were
generated, shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any
other moneys paid to standardbred purses under this Act, and
shall not be commingled with other moneys paid into that Fund.
The moneys deposited pursuant to this subparagraph (B) shall
be allocated as provided by the Department of Agriculture,
with the advice and assistance of the Illinois Standardbred
Breeders Fund Advisory Board.
(7.2) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the
contrary, if no thoroughbred racing is conducted at a racetrack
located in Madison County during any calendar year beginning on or
after January 1, 2002, all moneys derived by that racetrack from
simulcast wagering and inter-track wagering that (1) are to be used
for purses and (2) are generated between the hours of 6:30 a.m. and
6:30 p.m. during that calendar year shall deposited be as follows:
(A) If the licensee that conducts horse racing at that
racetrack requests from the Board at least as many racing
dates as were conducted in calendar year 2000, 80% shall be
deposited into its standardbred purse account; and
(B) Twenty percent shall be deposited into the Illinois
Colt Stakes Purse Distribution Fund. Moneys deposited into
the Illinois Colt Stakes Purse Distribution Fund pursuant to
this subparagraph (B) shall be paid to Illinois conceived and
foaled thoroughbred breeders' programs and to thoroughbred
purses for races conducted at any county fairgrounds for
Illinois conceived and foaled horses at the discretion of the
Department of Agriculture, with the advice and assistance of
the Illinois Thoroughbred Breeders Fund Advisory Board. The
moneys deposited into the Illinois Colt Stakes Purse
Distribution Fund pursuant to this subparagraph (B) shall be
deposited within 2 weeks after the day they were generated,
shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other moneys
paid to thoroughbred purses under this Act, and shall not be
commingled with other moneys deposited into that Fund.
(7.3) If no live standardbred racing is conducted at a
racetrack located in Madison County in calendar year 2000 or 2001,
an organization licensee who is licensed to conduct horse racing at
that racetrack shall, before January 1, 2002, pay all moneys
derived from simulcast wagering and inter-track wagering in
calendar years 2000 and 2001 and paid into the licensee's
standardbred purse account as follows:
(A) Eighty percent to that licensee's thoroughbred purse
17 [May 3, 2001]
account to be used for thoroughbred purses; and
(B) Twenty percent to the Illinois Colt Stakes Purse
Distribution Fund.
Failure to make the payment to the Illinois Colt Stakes Purse
Distribution Fund before January 1, 2002 shall result in the
immediate revocation of the licensee's organization license,
inter-track wagering license, and inter-track wagering location
license.
Moneys paid into the Illinois Colt Stakes Purse Distribution
Fund pursuant to this paragraph (7.3) shall be paid to purses for
standardbred races for Illinois conceived and foaled horses
conducted at any county fairgrounds. Moneys paid into the Illinois
Colt Stakes Purse Distribution Fund pursuant to this paragraph
(7.3) shall be used as determined by the Department of Agriculture,
with the advice and assistance of the Illinois Standardbred
Breeders Fund Advisory Board, shall be in addition to and not in
lieu of any other moneys paid to standardbred purses under this
Act, and shall not be commingled with any other moneys paid into
that Fund.
(7.4) If live standardbred racing is conducted at a racetrack
located in Madison County at any time in calendar year 2001 before
the payment required under paragraph (7.3) has been made, the
organization licensee who is licensed to conduct racing at that
racetrack shall pay all moneys derived by that racetrack from
simulcast wagering and inter-track wagering during calendar years
2000 and 2001 that (1) are to be used for purses and (2) are
generated between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. during 2000
or 2001 to the standardbred purse account at that racetrack to be
used for standardbred purses.
(8) Notwithstanding any provision in this Act to the
contrary, an organization licensee from a track located in a county
with a population in excess of 230,000 and that borders the
Mississippi River and its affiliated non-host licensees shall not
be entitled to share in any retention generated on racing,
inter-track wagering, or simulcast wagering at any other Illinois
wagering facility.
(8.1) Notwithstanding any provisions in this Act to the
contrary, if 2 organization licensees are conducting standardbred
race meetings concurrently between the hours of 6:30 p.m. and 6:30
a.m., after payment of all applicable State and local taxes and
interstate commission fees, the remainder of the amount retained
from simulcast wagering otherwise attributable to the host track
and to host track purses shall be split daily between the 2
organization licensees and the purses at the tracks of the 2
organization licensees, respectively, based on each organization
licensee's share of the total live handle for that day, provided
that this provision shall not apply to any non-host licensee that
derives its license from a track located in a county with a
population in excess of 230,000 and that borders the Mississippi
River.
(9) (Blank).
(10) (Blank).
(11) (Blank).
(12) The Board shall have authority to compel all host tracks
to receive the simulcast of any or all races conducted at the
Springfield or DuQuoin State fairgrounds and include all such races
as part of their simulcast programs.
(13) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, in the
event that the total Illinois pari-mutuel handle on Illinois horse
races at all wagering facilities in any calendar year is less than
75% of the total Illinois pari-mutuel handle on Illinois horse
races at all such wagering facilities for calendar year 1994, then
each wagering facility that has an annual total Illinois
pari-mutuel handle on Illinois horse races that is less than 75% of
the total Illinois pari-mutuel handle on Illinois horse races at
such wagering facility for calendar year 1994, shall be permitted
[May 3, 2001] 18
to receive, from any amount otherwise payable to the purse account
at the race track with which the wagering facility is affiliated in
the succeeding calendar year, an amount equal to 2% of the
differential in total Illinois pari-mutuel handle on Illinois horse
races at the wagering facility between that calendar year in
question and 1994 provided, however, that a wagering facility shall
not be entitled to any such payment until the Board certifies in
writing to the wagering facility the amount to which the wagering
facility is entitled and a schedule for payment of the amount to
the wagering facility, based on: (i) the racing dates awarded to
the race track affiliated with the wagering facility during the
succeeding year; (ii) the sums available or anticipated to be
available in the purse account of the race track affiliated with
the wagering facility for purses during the succeeding year; and
(iii) the need to ensure reasonable purse levels during the payment
period. The Board's certification shall be provided no later than
January 31 of the succeeding year. In the event a wagering facility
entitled to a payment under this paragraph (13) is affiliated with
a race track that maintains purse accounts for both standardbred
and thoroughbred racing, the amount to be paid to the wagering
facility shall be divided between each purse account pro rata,
based on the amount of Illinois handle on Illinois standardbred and
thoroughbred racing respectively at the wagering facility during
the previous calendar year. Annually, the General Assembly shall
appropriate sufficient funds from the General Revenue Fund to the
Department of Agriculture for payment into the thoroughbred and
standardbred horse racing purse accounts at Illinois pari-mutuel
tracks. The amount paid to each purse account shall be the amount
certified by the Illinois Racing Board in January to be
transferred from each account to each eligible racing facility in
accordance with the provisions of this Section.
(h) The Board may approve and license the conduct of inter-track
wagering and simulcast wagering by inter-track wagering licensees and
inter-track wagering location licensees subject to the following terms
and conditions:
(1) Any person licensed to conduct a race meeting at a track
where 60 or more days of racing were conducted during the
immediately preceding calendar year or where over the 5 immediately
preceding calendar years an average of 30 or more days of racing
were conducted annually or at a track located in a county that is
bounded by the Mississippi River, which has a population of less
than 150,000 according to the 1990 decennial census, and an average
of at least 60 days of racing per year between 1985 and 1993 may be
issued an inter-track wagering license. Any such person having
operating control of the racing facility may also receive up to 6
inter-track wagering location licenses. In no event shall more than
6 inter-track wagering locations be established for each eligible
race track, except that an eligible race track located in a county
that has a population of more than 230,000 and that is bounded by
the Mississippi River may establish up to 7 inter-track wagering
locations. An application for said license shall be filed with the
Board prior to such dates as may be fixed by the Board. With an
application for an inter-track wagering location license there
shall be delivered to the Board a certified check or bank draft
payable to the order of the Board for an amount equal to $500. The
application shall be on forms prescribed and furnished by the
Board. The application shall comply with all other rules,
regulations and conditions imposed by the Board in connection
therewith.
(1.5) In addition to any other requirement imposed pursuant
to this Act, the Board shall award to an organization licensee
located in Madison County, no less than the requisite number of
days necessary to conduct 100 days of live racing. In order for an
organization licensee located in Madison County to receive an
inter-track wagering license or an inter-track wagering location
license, the organization licensee must conduct at least 100 days
19 [May 3, 2001]
of live racing.
In the case of extraordinary circumstances and in the best
interests of the public and the sport of horse racing, however, the
Board may permit an organization licensee located in Madison County
to conduct fewer than 100 days of live racing and retain its
inter-track wagering license, inter-track wagering location
license, or both, when approved by a two-thirds vote of the
appointed Board members.
(2) The Board shall examine the applications with respect to
their conformity with this Act and the rules and regulations
imposed by the Board. If found to be in compliance with the Act
and rules and regulations of the Board, the Board may then issue a
license to conduct inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering to
such applicant. All such applications shall be acted upon by the
Board at a meeting to be held on such date as may be fixed by the
Board.
(3) In granting licenses to conduct inter-track wagering and
simulcast wagering, the Board shall give due consideration to the
best interests of the public, of horse racing, and of maximizing
revenue to the State.
(4) Prior to the issuance of a license to conduct inter-track
wagering and simulcast wagering, the applicant shall file with the
Board a bond payable to the State of Illinois in the sum of
$50,000, executed by the applicant and a surety company or
companies authorized to do business in this State, and conditioned
upon (i) the payment by the licensee of all taxes due under Section
27 or 27.1 and any other monies due and payable under this Act, and
(ii) distribution by the licensee, upon presentation of the winning
ticket or tickets, of all sums payable to the patrons of
pari-mutuel pools.
(5) Each license to conduct inter-track wagering and
simulcast wagering shall specify the person to whom it is issued,
the dates on which such wagering is permitted, and the track or
location where the wagering is to be conducted.
(6) All wagering under such license is subject to this Act
and to the rules and regulations from time to time prescribed by
the Board, and every such license issued by the Board shall contain
a recital to that effect.
(7) An inter-track wagering licensee or inter-track wagering
location licensee may accept wagers at the track or location where
it is licensed, or as otherwise provided under this Act.
(8) Inter-track wagering or simulcast wagering shall not be
conducted at any track less than 5 miles from a track at which a
racing meeting is in progress.
(8.1) Inter-track wagering location licensees who derive
their licenses from a particular organization licensee shall
conduct inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering only at
locations which are either within 90 miles of that race track where
the particular organization licensee is licensed to conduct racing,
or within 135 miles of that race track where the particular
organization licensee is licensed to conduct racing in the case of
race tracks in counties of less than 400,000 that were operating on
or before June 1, 1986. However, inter-track wagering and
simulcast wagering shall not be conducted by those licensees at any
location within 5 miles of any race track at which a horse race
meeting has been licensed in the current year, unless the person
having operating control of such race track has given its written
consent to such inter-track wagering location licensees, which
consent must be filed with the Board at or prior to the time
application is made.
(8.2) Inter-track wagering or simulcast wagering shall not be
conducted by an inter-track wagering location licensee at any
location within 500 feet of an existing church or existing school,
nor within 500 feet of the residences of more than 50 registered
voters without receiving written permission from a majority of the
registered voters at such residences. Such written permission
[May 3, 2001] 20
statements shall be filed with the Board. The distance of 500 feet
shall be measured to the nearest part of any building used for
worship services, education programs, residential purposes, or
conducting inter-track wagering by an inter-track wagering location
licensee, and not to property boundaries. However, inter-track
wagering or simulcast wagering may be conducted at a site within
500 feet of a church, school or residences of 50 or more registered
voters if such church, school or residences have been erected or
established, or such voters have been registered, after the Board
issues the original inter-track wagering location license at the
site in question. Inter-track wagering location licensees may
conduct inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering only in areas
that are zoned for commercial or manufacturing purposes or in areas
for which a special use has been approved by the local zoning
authority. However, no license to conduct inter-track wagering and
simulcast wagering shall be granted by the Board with respect to
any inter-track wagering location within the jurisdiction of any
local zoning authority which has, by ordinance or by resolution,
prohibited the establishment of an inter-track wagering location
within its jurisdiction. However, inter-track wagering and
simulcast wagering may be conducted at a site if such ordinance or
resolution is enacted after the Board licenses the original
inter-track wagering location licensee for the site in question.
(9) (Blank).
(10) An inter-track wagering licensee or an inter-track
wagering location licensee may retain, subject to the payment of
the privilege taxes and the purses, an amount not to exceed 17% of
all money wagered. Each program of racing conducted by each
inter-track wagering licensee or inter-track wagering location
licensee shall be considered a separate racing day for the purpose
of determining the daily handle and computing the privilege tax or
pari-mutuel tax on such daily handle as provided in Section 27.
(10.1) Except as provided in subsection (g) of Section 27 of
this Act, inter-track wagering location licensees shall pay 1% of
the pari-mutuel handle at each location to the municipality in
which such location is situated and 1% of the pari-mutuel handle at
each location to the county in which such location is situated. In
the event that an inter-track wagering location licensee is
situated in an unincorporated area of a county, such licensee shall
pay 2% of the pari-mutuel handle from such location to such county.
(10.2) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, with
respect to intertrack wagering at a race track located in a county
that has a population of more than 230,000 and that is bounded by
the Mississippi River ("the first race track"), or at a facility
operated by an inter-track wagering licensee or inter-track
wagering location licensee that derives its license from the
organization licensee that operates the first race track, on races
conducted at the first race track or on races conducted at another
Illinois race track and simultaneously televised to the first race
track or to a facility operated by an inter-track wagering licensee
or inter-track wagering location licensee that derives its license
from the organization licensee that operates the first race track,
those moneys shall be allocated as follows:
(A) That portion of all moneys wagered on standardbred
racing that is required under this Act to be paid to purses
shall be paid to purses for standardbred races.
(B) That portion of all moneys wagered on thoroughbred
racing that is required under this Act to be paid to purses
shall be paid to purses for thoroughbred races.
(11) (A) After payment of the privilege or pari-mutuel tax,
any other applicable taxes, and the costs and expenses in
connection with the gathering, transmission, and dissemination of
all data necessary to the conduct of inter-track wagering, the
remainder of the monies retained under either Section 26 or Section
26.2 of this Act by the inter-track wagering licensee on
inter-track wagering shall be allocated with 50% to be split
21 [May 3, 2001]
between the 2 participating licensees and 50% to purses, except
that an intertrack wagering licensee that derives its license from
a track located in a county with a population in excess of 230,000
and that borders the Mississippi River shall not divide any
remaining retention with the Illinois organization licensee that
provides the race or races, and an intertrack wagering licensee
that accepts wagers on races conducted by an organization licensee
that conducts a race meet in a county with a population in excess
of 230,000 and that borders the Mississippi River shall not divide
any remaining retention with that organization licensee.
(B) From the sums permitted to be retained pursuant to this
Act each inter-track wagering location licensee shall pay (i) the
privilege or pari-mutuel tax to the State; (ii) 4.75% of the
pari-mutuel handle on intertrack wagering at such location on races
as purses, except that an intertrack wagering location licensee
that derives its license from a track located in a county with a
population in excess of 230,000 and that borders the Mississippi
River shall retain all purse moneys for its own purse account
consistent with distribution set forth in this subsection (h), and
intertrack wagering location licensees that accept wagers on races
conducted by an organization licensee located in a county with a
population in excess of 230,000 and that borders the Mississippi
River shall distribute all purse moneys to purses at the operating
host track; (iii) until January 1, 2000, except as provided in
subsection (g) of Section 27 of this Act, 1% of the pari-mutuel
handle wagered on inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering at
each inter-track wagering location licensee facility to the Horse
Racing Tax Allocation Fund, provided that, to the extent the total
amount collected and distributed to the Horse Racing Tax Allocation
Fund under this subsection (h) during any calendar year exceeds the
amount collected and distributed to the Horse Racing Tax Allocation

based on each licensee's pro-rata share of the total handle from
inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering for all inter-track
wagering location licensees during the calendar year in which this
provision is applicable; then (II) the amounts redistributed to
each inter-track wagering location licensee as described in subpart
(I) shall be further redistributed as provided in subparagraph (B)
of paragraph (5) of subsection (g) of this Section 26 provided
first, that the shares of those amounts, which are to be
redistributed to the host track or to purses at the host track

rata share of the total inter-track wagering and simulcast wagering
handle at all host tracks during the calendar year in question, and
second, that any amounts redistributed as described in part (I) to
an inter-track wagering location licensee that accepts wagers on
races conducted by an organization licensee that conducts a race
meet in a county with a population in excess of 230,000 and that
borders the Mississippi River shall be further redistributed as
provided in subparagraphs (D) and (E) of paragraph (7) of
subsection (g) of this Section 26, with the portion of that further
redistribution allocated to purses at that organization licensee to
be divided between standardbred purses and thoroughbred purses

organization licensee during the calendar year in question; and
(iv) 8% of the pari-mutuel handle on inter-track wagering wagered
at such location to satisfy all costs and expenses of conducting
its wagering. The remainder of the monies retained by the
inter-track wagering location licensee shall be allocated 40% to
the location licensee and 60% to the organization licensee which
provides the Illinois races to the location, except that an
intertrack wagering location licensee that derives its license from
a track located in a county with a population in excess of 230,000
and that borders the Mississippi River shall not divide any
[May 3, 2001] 22
remaining retention with the organization licensee that provides
the race or races and an intertrack wagering location licensee that
accepts wagers on races conducted by an organization licensee that
conducts a race meet in a county with a population in excess of
230,000 and that borders the Mississippi River shall not divide any
remaining retention with the organization licensee. Notwithstanding
the provisions of clauses (ii) and (iv) of this paragraph, in the
case of the additional inter-track wagering location licenses
authorized under paragraph (1) of this subsection (h) by this
amendatory Act of 1991, those licensees shall pay the following

shall be 5.75% of the pari-mutuel wagered at the location, purses
for the second 12 months the licensee is in operation shall be
6.25%, and purses thereafter shall be 6.75%. For additional
intertrack location licensees authorized under this amendatory Act

costs and expenses: 7.75% of the pari-mutuel handle wagered at the
location during its first 12 months of operation, 7.25% during its
second 12 months of operation, and 6.75% thereafter.

location licensee is located in a municipality that is not
included within any park district but is included within a
conservation district and is the county seat of a county that
(i) is contiguous to the state of Indiana and (ii) has a 1990
population of 88,257 according to the United States Bureau of
the Census, except that if the conservation district does not
maintain a museum, the monies shall be allocated equally

purposes) or to a municipal recreation board for park purposes
(if an inter-track wagering location licensee is located in a
municipality that is not included within any park district and
park maintenance is the function of the municipal recreation
board and the municipality has a 1990 population of 9,302
according to the United States Bureau of the Census); provided

conservation district or municipality that does not have a
park district in an amount equal to four-sevenths of the
amount collected by each inter-track wagering location
licensee within the park district or conservation district or
municipality for the Fund. Monies that were paid into the
Horse Racing Tax Allocation Fund before the effective date of

location licensee located in a municipality that is not
included within any park district but is included within a
conservation district as provided in this paragraph shall, as

This subparagraph (C) shall be inoperative and of no force and
effect on and after January 1, 2000.
(D) Except as provided in paragraph (11) of this
subsection (h), with respect to purse allocation from
intertrack wagering, the monies so retained shall be divided
as follows:
(i) If the inter-track wagering licensee, except an
intertrack wagering licensee that derives its license
from an organization licensee located in a county with a
population in excess of 230,000 and bounded by the
Mississippi River, is not conducting its own race meeting
during the same dates, then the entire purse allocation
shall be to purses at the track where the races wagered
on are being conducted.
(ii) If the inter-track wagering licensee, except
an intertrack wagering licensee that derives its license
from an organization licensee located in a county with a
population in excess of 230,000 and bounded by the
Mississippi River, is also conducting its own race
meeting during the same dates, then the purse allocation
shall be as follows: 50% to purses at the track where the
races wagered on are being conducted; 50% to purses at
the track where the inter-track wagering licensee is
accepting such wagers.
(iii) If the inter-track wagering is being
conducted by an inter-track wagering location licensee,
except an intertrack wagering location licensee that
derives its license from an organization licensee located
in a county with a population in excess of 230,000 and
bounded by the Mississippi River, the entire purse
allocation for Illinois races shall be to purses at the
25 [May 3, 2001]
track where the race meeting being wagered on is being
held.
(12) The Board shall have all powers necessary and proper to
fully supervise and control the conduct of inter-track wagering and
simulcast wagering by inter-track wagering licensees and
inter-track wagering location licensees, including, but not limited
to the following:
(A) The Board is vested with power to promulgate
reasonable rules and regulations for the purpose of
administering the conduct of this wagering and to prescribe
reasonable rules, regulations and conditions under which such
wagering shall be held and conducted. Such rules and
regulations are to provide for the prevention of practices
detrimental to the public interest and for the best interests
of said wagering and to impose penalties for violations
thereof.
(B) The Board, and any person or persons to whom it
delegates this power, is vested with the power to enter the
facilities of any licensee to determine whether there has been
compliance with the provisions of this Act and the rules and
regulations relating to the conduct of such wagering.
(C) The Board, and any person or persons to whom it
delegates this power, may eject or exclude from any licensee's
facilities, any person whose conduct or reputation is such
that his presence on such premises may, in the opinion of the
Board, call into the question the honesty and integrity of, or
interfere with the orderly conduct of such wagering; provided,
however, that no person shall be excluded or ejected from such
premises solely on the grounds of race, color, creed, national
origin, ancestry, or sex.
(D) (Blank).
(E) The Board is vested with the power to appoint
delegates to execute any of the powers granted to it under
this Section for the purpose of administering this wagering
and any rules and regulations promulgated in accordance with
this Act.
(F) The Board shall name and appoint a State director of
this wagering who shall be a representative of the Board and
whose duty it shall be to supervise the conduct of inter-track
wagering as may be provided for by the rules and regulations
of the Board; such rules and regulation shall specify the
method of appointment and the Director's powers, authority and
duties.
(G) The Board is vested with the power to impose civil
penalties of up to $5,000 against individuals and up to
$10,000 against licensees for each violation of any provision
of this Act relating to the conduct of this wagering, any
rules adopted by the Board, any order of the Board or any
other action which in the Board's discretion, is a detriment
or impediment to such wagering.
(13) The Department of Agriculture may enter into agreements
with licensees authorizing such licensees to conduct inter-track
wagering on races to be held at the licensed race meetings
conducted by the Department of Agriculture. Such agreement shall
specify the races of the Department of Agriculture's licensed race
meeting upon which the licensees will conduct wagering. In the
event that a licensee conducts inter-track pari-mutuel wagering on
races from the Illinois State Fair or DuQuoin State Fair which are
in addition to the licensee's previously approved racing program,
those races shall be considered a separate racing day for the
purpose of determining the daily handle and computing the privilege
or pari-mutuel tax on that daily handle as provided in Sections 27
and 27.1. Such agreements shall be approved by the Board before
such wagering may be conducted. In determining whether to grant
approval, the Board shall give due consideration to the best
interests of the public and of horse racing. The provisions of
[May 3, 2001] 26
paragraphs (1), (8), (8.1), and (8.2) of subsection (h) of this
Section which are not specified in this paragraph (13) shall not
apply to licensed race meetings conducted by the Department of
Agriculture at the Illinois State Fair in Sangamon County or the
DuQuoin State Fair in Perry County, or to any wagering conducted on
those race meetings.
(i) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Act, the conduct
of wagering at wagering facilities is authorized on all days, except as
limited by subsection (b) of Section 19 of this Act.

RESOLUTIONS
The following resolutions were offered and placed in the Committee
on Rules.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 258
39 [May 3, 2001]
Offered by Representative Mautino:
WHEREAS, The Private Sewage Disposal Licensing Act was enacted in
1973 "to protect, promote and preserve the public health, safety and
general welfare by providing for licensing of private sewage disposal
contractors and the establishment and enforcement of a minimum code of
standards for design, construction, materials, operation and
maintenance of private sewage disposal systems, for the transportation
and disposal of wastes therefrom, and for private sewage disposal
servicing equipment"; and
WHEREAS, Innovations in technology for the development and use of
onsite wastewater systems have changed since 1973; and
WHEREAS, The State of Illinois has experienced substantial
population growth and expansion into rural areas, dramatically
increasing the number of onsite wastewater systems in use in those
areas; and
WHEREAS, Rural population growth has created a need for more
professional and innovative solutions to onsite wastewater problems in
the State; and
WHEREAS, Both the State and federal government lack sufficient
funding to properly inspect, test, and develop onsite wastewater
systems in a manner that protects and promotes the public health,
safety, and general welfare of the people of the State of Illinois;
therefore be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that there is created the
Private Sewage Disposal Review Commission consisting of 4 members
appointed by the Speaker of the House and 3 members appointed by the
Minority Leader of the House, all of whom shall serve without
compensation but shall be reimbursed for their reasonable and necessary
expenses from funds available for that purpose; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the Commission shall meet initially at the call of
the Speaker, shall select one member as chairperson at its initial
meeting, shall thereafter meet at the call of the chairperson, shall
hold public hearings, shall receive the assistance of legislative
staff, and shall report its findings and recommendations concerning the
Private Sewage Disposal Licensing Act to the House by filing copies of
its report with the Clerk of the House on or before March 15, 2002; and
that upon filing its report the commission is dissolved.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 259
Offered by Representative Daniels:
WHEREAS, Federal taxes are the highest they have ever been during
peacetime; and
WHEREAS, All taxpayers should be allowed to keep more of their own
money; and
WHEREAS, The best way to encourage economic growth is to cut
marginal tax rates across all tax brackets; and
WHEREAS, Under current law, low-income workers often pay the
highest marginal rates; and
WHEREAS, President Bush's tax relief plan will contribute to
raising the standard of living for all Americans; and
WHEREAS, President Bush's tax relief plan will increase access to
the middle class for hard working families, treat all middle class
families more fairly, encourage entrepreneurship and growth, and
promote charitable giving and education; and
WHEREAS, Under President Bush's tax relief plan, the largest
percentage reductions will go to the lowest-income earners; therefore,
be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we urge our elected
representatives in the United States Congress to support and work to
pass the tax relief plan proposed by President Bush; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be presented to
each member of the Illinois congressional delegation.
[May 3, 2001] 40
HOUSE RESOLUTION 260
Offered by Representative Daniels:
WHEREAS, Women and minorities are very often owners of small and
medium-sized businesses, and the death tax prevents their children from
reaping the rewards of a lifetime trying to make a better life; and
WHEREAS, Farmers often face losing their farms because the federal
government heavily taxes the estates of people who invested most of
their earnings back into their farms and had only a small amount of
liquid savings; and
WHEREAS, Employees suffer when they lose their jobs because many
small and medium-sized businesses are liquidated to pay death taxes and
because high capital costs depress the number of new businesses that
could offer these employees jobs; and
WHEREAS, If the estate tax had been repealed in 1996, over the next
nine years the United States economy would have averaged as much as $11
billion per year in extra output, and an average of 145,000 additional
new jobs would have been created; and
WHEREAS, Having passed the United States House of Representatives
by a vote of 279-36, and having passed the United States Senate by a
vote of 59-39, elimination of the death tax has wide bipartisan
support; therefore, be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we urge our elected
representatives in the United States Congress to vote for the repeal of
the death tax; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be presented to
each member of the Illinois congressional delegation.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 261
Offered by Representative Daniels:
WHEREAS, Half the workforce, 70 million Americans, lack access to a
401(k)-type retirement plan or any kind of pension; and
WHEREAS, Among small businesses, less than 20 percent of small
businesses with 25 or fewer employees offer any kind of pension
coverage today; and
WHEREAS, There has been virtually no growth in pension coverage in
the past 20 years; and
WHEREAS, Contribution limits on pensions and IRAs remain at 1980s
levels; and
WHEREAS, The Comprehensive Retirement Security and Pension Reform
Act allows Americans to set more aside in an IRA or 401(k)-type
retirement plan, modernizes pension laws and provides regulatory relief
to encourage more small businesses to offer retirement plans; and
WHEREAS, Having passed in the United States House of
Representatives by a vote of 401-25, IRA expansion has wide bipartisan
support; and
WHEREAS, The current $2,000 IRA contribution limit established in
1981 for both traditional and Roth IRA's should be increased to $5,000;
and
WHEREAS, The limit on salary reduction contributions to 401(k)-type
retirement plans should be increased from $10,500 today to $15,000 by
2005; and
WHEREAS, Workers over 50 should be able to contribute up to $5,000
in "catch up" contributions for 401(k)-type retirement plans; and
WHEREAS, Thousands of union workers participating in multi-employer
pension plans are short-changed on their retirement benefits; the
Comprehensive Retirement Security and Pension Reform Act bill fixes the
problem to help these workers get the full pension benefits they have
earned; and
WHEREAS, Pension laws should be modernized and streamlined to
encourage small businesses to offer pension plans; therefore, be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we urge our elected
representatives in the United States Congress to support and work to
41 [May 3, 2001]
pass the Comprehensive Retirement Security and Pension Reform Act; and
be it further
RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be presented to
each member of the Illinois congressional delegation.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 262

WHEREAS, The House of Representatives is deeply troubled by such
tragic school shooting incidents as at Columbine High School in
Colorado and more recently at Santana High School in California; and
WHEREAS, To prevent such incidents from happening in this State, a
toll-free hotline should be available for students to call if they have
information that involves guns, harm coming to another student, or harm
to a school building; therefore be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we encourage each
school district in this State to establish a toll-free hotline for
students in elementary and high school to call if they have information
that involves guns, harm coming to another student, or harm to a school
building; and be it further
RESOLVED, That the school district immediately provide the
information taken to a local law enforcement agency for investigation;
and be it further
RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be delivered to
the State Superintendent of Education.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 263
Offered by Representative Lang:
WHEREAS, A recent report revealed that 64 federal World Wide Web
sites used unauthorized information-collecting "cookies" that allow
those agencies to track the browsing and buying habits of Internet
users who visited those sites; and
WHEREAS, On October 11, 2000, a statement by the United States
General Accounting Office indicated that some federal Web sites were
lacking when measured against the Federal Trade Commission's four fair
information principles: notice (data collectors must disclose their
information practices before collecting personal information from
consumers); choice (consumers must be given options with respect to
whether and how personal information collected from them may be used
for purposes beyond those for which the information was provided);
access (consumers should be able to view and contest the accuracy and
completeness of data collected about them); and security (data
collectors must take reasonable steps to ensure that information
collected from consumers is accurate and secure from unauthorized use);
and
WHEREAS, Persons using Web sites maintained by officers and
agencies of the State of Illinois are entitled to assurance that their
privacy will be protected when they use those Web sites; therefore, be
it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we direct the Auditor
General to conduct an audit of each State officer and agency that
maintains a World Wide Web site and determine whether the officer or
agency uses technology that allows it to track the browsing or buying
habits of Internet users who visit the site and, if so, whether the
tracking is necessary and whether the officer or agency protects those
users through adequate notice, choice, access, and security; and be it
further
RESOLVED, That the Auditor General is directed to report its
findings and recommendations to the General Assembly by October 1,
2001; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this resolution be presented to the
Auditor General.
[May 3, 2001] 42
HOUSE RESOLUTION 264
Offered by Representative Novak:
WHEREAS, The high price of gasoline and natural gas throughout the
United States and the electricity crises in the western states during
the last year demonstrate that it is time for a national debate on how
the United States acquires, distributes, and uses energy resources; and
WHEREAS, The United States Government needs to develop a
comprehensive national energy policy which is based on science,
conservation, future needs, and national security; and
WHEREAS, The President's call for a national energy policy has
stressed the importance of a policy that assures both an adequate
supply of affordable fuel and reduced reliance on foreign oil sources;
and
WHEREAS, Legislation has been introduced in Congress in 2001
dealing with energy conservation, environmental regulation and
fossil-fuel supplies, and central to the debate over these issues is
whether Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge should be opened to
oil exploration; and
WHEREAS, Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge has 20 million
acres of tundra and is remote and largely untouched; and
WHEREAS, The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is a pristine natural
wonder that is home to 45 species of mammals, 36 types of fish, and
more than 160 species of birds; and
WHEREAS, Prospecting for oil in wildlife refuges is a debatable
proposition, given the risks to this unique environment, and proposals
to drill in such areas are no substitute for a boarder energy policy;
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we urge the President
of the United States to ban any attempt to open Alaska's Arctic
National Wildlife Refuge to oil exploration; and be it further
RESOLVED, That suitable copies of this resolution be delivered to
the President and Vice President of the United States, United States
Senators Richard Durbin and Peter Fitzgerald, members of the Illinois
Congressional Delegation, the Governor of the State of Illinois, the
Speaker of the Illinois House of Representatives, the Minority Leader
of the Illinois House of Representatives, the President of the Illinois
Senate, and the Minority Leader of the Illinois Senate.
HOUSE RESOLUTION 265
Offered by Representative Dart:
WHEREAS, Child abuse prevention is a community problem, and finding
solutions depends on involvement among people throughout the community
including the courts; and
WHEREAS, Statistics of children who are abused and neglected
escalate each year; and
WHEREAS, The effect of child abuse is an issue of great importance
to all communities and needs to be addressed by all Illinoisians; and
WHEREAS, Effective child abuse prevention programs succeed because
of partnerships created among the courts, social service agencies,
schools, religious organizations, law enforcement agencies, and the
business communities; and
WHEREAS, Parents Anonymous, a prevention program offering positive
alternatives to help break the cycle of abuse, is sponsoring the
Illinois Blue Bow Campaign to heighten awareness of the need to support
families; and
WHEREAS, All citizens should become more aware of child abuse and
prevention within the community and become involved in supporting
parents to raise their children in a safe, nurturing environment;
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that we recognize and
designate the third week of April as Blue Bow Week and April as Child
Abuse Prevention Month and call upon all citizens to increase their
43 [May 3, 2001]
participation in efforts to prevent child abuse, thereby strengthening
the communities in which we live; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be presented to
Parents Anonymous.

"Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by changing
Sections 13B-25 and 13B-45 as follows:
(625 ILCS 5/13B-25)
Sec. 13B-25. Performance of inspections.
(a) The inspection of vehicles required under this Chapter shall
be performed only: (i) by inspectors who have been certified by the
Agency after successfully completing a course of training and
successfully passing a written test; (ii) at official inspection
stations or official on-road inspection sites established under this
Chapter; and (iii) with equipment that has been approved by the Agency
for these inspections.
(b) Except as provided in subsections (c) and (d), the inspection
shall consist of (i) a loaded mode exhaust gas analysis; (ii) an
evaporative system integrity test; (iii) an on-board computer
diagnostic system check; and (iv) a verification that all required
emission-related recall repairs have been made under Title 40, Section
51.370 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and may also include an
evaporative system purge test. The owner of the vehicle or the owner's
agent shall be entitled to an emission inspection certificate issued by
an inspector only if all required tests are passed at the time of the
inspection.
(c) A steady-state idle exhaust gas analysis may be substituted
for the loaded mode exhaust gas analysis and the evaporative purge
system test in the following cases:
[May 3, 2001] 44
(1) On any vehicle of model year 1980 or older.
(2) On any heavy duty vehicle with a manufacturer gross
vehicle weight rating in excess of 8,500 pounds.
(3) On any vehicle for which loaded mode testing is not
possible due to vehicle design or configuration.
(d) If authorized by the United States Environmental Protection
Agency with no or a minimal loss of emission reduction benefits and if
authorized by rules that the Board or the Agency may adopt, the
following procedures shall be followed on model year 1996 and newer
vehicles equipped with OBDII on-board computer diagnostic equipment:
(1) The loaded mode exhaust gas analysis specified in
subsection (b) of this Section shall not be performed on such
vehicles for which the on-board computer diagnostic test specified
in subsection (h) of this Section can be performed. All other
elements of the inspection required for such vehicles shall be
performed in accordance with the provisions of this Section.
(2) The on-board computer diagnostic test shall not be a
required element of the inspection mandated by this Section for
such vehicles for which on-board computer diagnostic testing is not
possible due to the vehicle's originally certified design or its
design as modified in accordance with federal law and regulations.
In such cases, all other elements of the inspection required under
this Section shall be performed on such vehicles, including the
exhaust gas analysis as specified in subsection (b) of this
Section. A steady-state idle gas analysis may also be substituted
for the new procedures specified in subsection (b) in inspections
conducted in calendar year 1995 on any vehicle of model year 1990
or older.
(e) The exhaust gas analysis shall consist of a test of an exhaust
gas sample to determine whether the quantities of exhaust gas
pollutants emitted by the vehicle meet the standards set for vehicles
of that type under Section 13B-20. A vehicle shall be deemed to have
passed this portion of the inspection if the evaluation of the exhaust
gas sample indicates that the quantities of exhaust gas pollutants
emitted by the vehicle do not exceed the standards set for vehicles of
that type under Section 13B-20 or an inspector certifies that the
vehicle qualifies for a waiver of the exhaust gas pollutant standards
under Section 13B-30.
(f) The evaporative system integrity test shall consist of a
procedure to determine if leaks exist in all or a portion of the
vehicle fuel evaporation emission control system. A vehicle shall be
deemed to have passed this test if it meets the criteria that the Board
may adopt for an evaporative system integrity test.
(g) The evaporative system purge test shall consist of a procedure
to verify the purging of vapors stored in the evaporative canister. A
vehicle shall be deemed to have passed this test if it meets the
criteria that the Board may adopt for an evaporative system purge test.
(h) The on-board computer diagnostic test shall consist of
accessing the vehicle's on-board computer system, if so equipped, and
reading any stored diagnostic codes that may be present. The vehicle
shall be deemed to have passed this test if the codes observed did not
exceed standards set for vehicles of that type under Section 13B-20.

responsible parties to construct and operate official inspection
