Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Safe Bottled Water Act and amends the State Finance Act. Requires that water-bottling plant and private water source operators obtain a license from the Department of Public Health, and imposes a license fee of $150. Imposes an additional fee of $50 for late submission of applications for licensure. Imposes like fees for the registration of out-of-state water-bottling plants. Prescribes minimum standards for various activities in connection with bottled water or vended water. Preempts the exercise of home rule powers in connection with the licensing of activities relating to bottled water. Authorizes the Department to conduct inspections and undertake other activities in connection with administering the Act, and makes it a Class A misdemeanor to interfere with a representative of the Department who is conducting an inspection or other authorized activity. Makes other violations of the Act a petty offense. Creates the Safe Bottled Water Fund, to consist of moneys paid to the Department of Public Health under the Safe Bottled Water Act and to be used by the Department for administering the Act. Effective January 1, 2005.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Creates the Safe Bottled Water Act with provisions substantially similar to those of Senate Bill 3112, except for changes that include the following: (1) eliminates a statement that it is unlawful for a person to bottle, collect, treat, or hold bottled water without a license, and provides that any bottled water produced by a private water source or water-bottling plant (instead of any water dispensed by a private water source) that is not licensed in compliance with the Act is misbranded and may be embargoed; (2) with respect to Department of Public Health inspections, requires an opportunity for a representative of a water-bottling plant or private water source (eliminating a representative of a water hauler or bottled-water distributor) to accompany the Department's representative; and (3) eliminates a requirement that water-bottling plants located outside Illinois that sell or distribute bottled water in Illinois provide proof of satisfactory inspection reports to the Department of Public Health. Effective January 1, 2005.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 3
Deletes a provision that water intended for bottling may not be stored, transported, processed, or bottled through equipment or lines used for dairy products. Makes a technical change.

 Fiscal Note (Department of Public Health)
 There will be a minimal fiscal impact on the Department of Public Health.
