16 | | "Industry trained and certified" means having |
17 | | documentation that is recognized by the United States |
18 | | Department of Labor and that shows either: |
19 | | (1) an individual's prior completion of, or current |
20 | | enrollment in for at least the entire duration of a |
21 | | corrosion prevention project on the community water |
22 | | supply, a United States Department of Labor certified |
23 | | apprenticeship training program that requires concurrent |
24 | | on-the-job training and classroom instruction for an |
25 | | individual to be considered adequately knowledgeable to |
26 | | carry out corrosion prevention and mitigation methods; or |
|
| | HB3323 Engrossed | - 4 - | LRB099 11080 JLS 31477 b |
|
|
1 | | (2) an individual's receipt from a corrosion |
2 | | prevention industry credentialing organization, whose |
3 | | standards for corrosion prevention and mitigation methods |
4 | | are recognized by the Agency, of confirmation that the |
5 | | individual is adequately trained to carry out corrosion |
6 | | prevention and mitigation methods or inspections.
|
7 | | Section 10. The Illinois Highway Code is amended by adding |
8 | | Section 4-106 as follows: |
9 | | (605 ILCS 5/4-106 new) |
10 | | Sec. 4-106. Preservation of bridge infrastructure. |
11 | | (a) The Department shall adopt rules governing all |
12 | | corrosion prevention projects carried out on eligible bridges. |
13 | | The rules shall include: |
14 | | (1) a process for ensuring that corrosion prevention |
15 | | and mitigation methods are carried out according to |
16 | | corrosion prevention industry standards adopted by the |
17 | | Department for eligible bridges that include the use of |
18 | | industry trained and certified: |
19 | | (A) protective coatings personnel to carry out |
20 | | corrosion prevention and mitigation methods on any |
21 | | type of substrate or surface, but especially concrete |
22 | | and steel; and |
23 | | (B) inspectors to ensure best practices and |
24 | | standards are adhered to on a corrosion prevention |
