(625 ILCS 5/13-109.1)

Sec. 13-109.1. Annual and nonscheduled emission inspection tests; standards; penalties; funds.

(a) For each diesel powered vehicle that (i) is registered for a gross weight of more than 16,000 pounds, (ii) is registered within an affected area, and (iii) is a 2 year or older model year, an annual emission inspection test shall be conducted at an official testing station certified by the Illinois Department of Transportation to perform diesel emission inspections pursuant to the standards set forth in subsection (b) of this Section. This annual emission inspection test may be conducted in conjunction with a semi-annual safety test.

(a-5) (Blank). Beginning October 1, 2000, the Department of State Police is authorized to perform nonscheduled emission inspections for cause, at any place within an affected area, of any diesel powered vehicles that are operated on the roadways of this State, and are registered for a gross weight of more than 16,000 pounds or have a gross vehicle weight rating of more than 16,000 pounds. The inspections shall adhere to the procedures and standards set forth in subsection (b). These nonscheduled emission inspections shall be conducted by the Department of State Police at weigh stations, roadside, or other safe and reasonable locations within an affected area. Before any person may inspect a diesel vehicle under this Section, he or she must receive adequate training and certification for diesel emission inspections by the Department of State Police. The Department of State Police shall adopt rules for the training and certification of persons who conduct emission inspections under this Section.

(b) Diesel emission inspections conducted under this Chapter 13 shall be conducted in accordance with the Society of Automotive Engineers Recommended Practice J1667 "Snap-Acceleration Smoke Test Procedure for Heavy-Duty Diesel Powered Vehicles" and the cutpoint standards set forth in the United States Environmental Protection Agency guidance document "Guidance to States on Smoke Opacity Cutpoints to be used with the SAE J1667 In-Use Smoke Test Procedure". Those procedures and standards, as now in effect, are made a part of this Code, in the same manner as though they were set out in full in this Code.

Notwithstanding the above cutpoint standards, for motor vehicles that are model years 1973 and older, until December 31, 2002, the level of peak smoke opacity shall not exceed 70 percent. Beginning January 1, 2003, for motor vehicles that are model years 1973 and older, the level of peak smoke opacity shall not exceed 55 percent.

(c) If the annual emission inspection under subsection (a) reveals that the vehicle is not in compliance with the diesel emission standards set forth in subsection (b) of this Section, the operator of the official testing station shall issue a warning notice requiring correction of the violation. The correction shall be made and the vehicle submitted to an emissions retest at an official testing station certified by the Department to perform diesel emission inspections within 30 days from the issuance of the warning notice requiring correction of the violation.

If, within 30 days from the issuance of the warning notice, the vehicle is not in compliance with the diesel emission standards set forth in subsection (b) as determined by an emissions retest at an official testing station, the operator of the official testing station or the Department shall place the vehicle out-of-service in accordance with the rules promulgated by the Department. Operating a vehicle that has been placed out-of-service under this subsection (c) is a petty offense punishable by a $1,000 fine. The vehicle must pass a diesel emission inspection at an official testing station before it is again placed in service. The Secretary of State, Department of State Police, and other law enforcement officers shall enforce this Section. No emergency vehicle, as defined in Section 1-105, may be placed out-of-service pursuant to this Section.

The Department or an official testing station may issue a certificate of waiver subsequent to a reinspection of a vehicle that failed the emissions inspection. Certificate of waiver shall be issued upon determination that documented proof demonstrates that emissions repair costs for the noncompliant vehicle of at least $3,000 have been spent in an effort to achieve compliance with the emission standards set forth in subsection (b). The Department of Transportation shall adopt rules for the implementation of this subsection including standards of documented proof as well as the criteria by which a waiver shall be granted.

(c-5) (Blank). If a nonscheduled inspection reveals that the vehicle is not in compliance with the diesel emission standards set forth in subsection (b), the operator of the vehicle is guilty of a petty offense punishable by a $400 fine, and a State Police officer shall issue a citation for a violation of the standards. A third or subsequent violation within one year of the first violation is a petty offense punishable by a $1,000 fine. An operator who receives a citation under this subsection shall not, within 30 days of the initial citation, receive a second or subsequent citation for operating the same vehicle in violation of the emission standards set forth in subsection (b).

(d) (Blank). There is hereby created within the State Treasury a special fund to be known as the Diesel Emissions Testing Fund, constituted from the fines collected pursuant to subsections (c) and (c-5) of this Section. Subject to appropriation, moneys from the Diesel Emissions Testing Fund shall be available, as a supplement to moneys appropriated from the General Revenue Fund, to the Department of Transportation and the Department of State Police for their implementation of the diesel emission inspection requirements under this Chapter 13. All moneys received from fines imposed under this Section shall be paid into the Diesel Emissions Testing Fund. All citations issued pursuant to this Section shall be considered non-moving violations. The Department of Transportation and the Department of State Police are authorized to promulgate rules to implement their responsibilities under this Section.

(730 ILCS 5/3-10-2) (from Ch. 38, par. 1003-10-2)

Sec. 3-10-2. Examination of Persons Committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice.

(a) A person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be examined in regard to his medical, psychological, social, educational and vocational condition and history, including the use of alcohol and other drugs, the circumstances of his offense and any other information as the Department of Juvenile Justice may determine.

(a-5) Upon admission of a person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice, the Department of Juvenile Justice must provide the person with appropriate information concerning HIV and AIDS in writing, verbally, or by video or other electronic means. The Department of Juvenile Justice shall develop the informational materials in consultation with the Department of Public Health. At the same time, the Department of Juvenile Justice also must offer the person the option of being tested, at no charge to the person, for infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Pre-test information shall be provided to the committed person and informed consent obtained as required in subsection (q) of Section 3 and Section 5 of the AIDS Confidentiality Act. The Department of Juvenile Justice may conduct opt-out HIV testing as defined in Section 4 of the AIDS Confidentiality Act. If the Department conducts opt-out HIV testing, the Department shall place signs in English, Spanish and other languages as needed in multiple, highly visible locations in the area where HIV testing is conducted informing inmates that they will be tested for HIV unless they refuse, and refusal or acceptance of testing shall be documented in the inmate's medical record. The Department shall follow procedures established by the Department of Public Health to conduct HIV testing and testing to confirm positive HIV test results. All testing must be conducted by medical personnel, but pre-test and other information may be provided by committed persons who have received appropriate training. The Department, in conjunction with the Department of Public Health, shall develop a plan that complies with the AIDS Confidentiality Act to deliver confidentially all positive or negative HIV test results to inmates or former inmates. Nothing in this Section shall require the Department to offer HIV testing to an inmate who is known to be infected with HIV, or who has been tested for HIV within the previous 180 days and whose documented HIV test result is available to the Department electronically. The testing provided under this subsection (a-5) shall consist of a test approved by the Illinois Department of Public Health to determine the presence of HIV infection, based upon recommendations of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. If the test result is positive, a reliable supplemental test based upon recommendations of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shall be administered.

Also upon admission of a person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice, the Department of Juvenile Justice must inform the person of the Department's obligation to provide the person with medical care.

(b) Based on its examination, the Department of Juvenile Justice may exercise the following powers in developing a treatment program of any person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice:

(1) Require participation by him in vocational, physical, educational and corrective training and activities to return him to the community.

(2) Place him in any institution or facility of the Department of Juvenile Justice.

(3) Order replacement or referral to the Parole and Pardon Board as often as it deems desirable. The Department of Juvenile Justice shall refer the person to the Parole and Pardon Board as required under Section 3-3-4.

(4) Enter into agreements with the Secretary of Human Services and the Director of Children and Family Services, with courts having probation officers, and with private agencies or institutions for separate care or special treatment of persons subject to the control of the Department of Juvenile Justice.

(c) The Department of Juvenile Justice shall make periodic reexamination of all persons under the control of the Department of Juvenile Justice to determine whether existing orders in individual cases should be modified or continued. This examination shall be made with respect to every person at least once annually.

(d) A record of the treatment decision including any modification thereof and the reason therefor, shall be part of the committed person's master record file.

(e) The Department of Juvenile Justice shall by regular certified mail and telephone or electronic message notify the parent, guardian or nearest relative of any person committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice of his or her physical location and any change thereof.
