| 5 | | (c) Community water supplies may request the Illinois | 6 | | Emergency Management Agency to perform analytical services to | 7 | | determine compliance with contaminant levels for radionuclides | 8 | | as specified in State or federal drinking water regulations. | 9 | | The Illinois Emergency Management Agency must adopt rules | 10 | | establishing reasonable fees reflecting the direct and | 11 | | indirect cost of testing community water supply samples.

Neither the Illinois Emergency Management | 15 | | Agency nor the Environmental Protection Agency is required to | 16 | | perform analytical services to determine contaminant levels | 17 | | for radionuclides from any community water supply that does not | 18 | | participate in the Illinois Emergency Management Agency's | 19 | | testing program.
| 20 | | Community water supplies that choose not to participate in | 21 | | the Illinois Emergency Management Agency's testing program or | 22 | | do not pay
the fees established by the Illinois Emergency | 23 | | Management Agency shall have the duty to analyze all drinking | 24 | | water samples as required by State or federal safe drinking | 25 | | water regulations to determine radionuclide contaminant | 26 | | levels.
