Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
225 ILCS 705/4.23
(225 ILCS 705/4.23) (from Ch. 96 1/2, par. 423)
Sec. 4.23.
The State shall be divided into not to exceed 22 inspection
districts, the division to be made by the Mining Board. The Mining Board
may change the boundaries of the districts from time to time in order to
more equally distribute the labor and expenses of the several State Mine
Inspectors, and may at any time reduce the number of inspection districts,
and the number of State Mine Inspectors employed. However, there shall be no
fewer than 16 State Mine Inspectors if there are 40 or more mines operational
in the State, no fewer than 12 State Mine Inspectors if at least 30 but fewer
than 40 mines are operational, no fewer than 8 State Mine Inspectors if at
least 20 but fewer than 30 mines are operational, and no fewer than 4 State
Mine Inspectors if at least 10 but fewer than 20 mines are operational.
For purposes of this Section, "mine" or "coal mine" means any area of land
and any structures, facilities, machinery, tools, equipment, shafts, slopes,
tunnels, excavations, and other property, real or personal, placed under, upon,
or above the surface of the land by any person, that is used in, to be used in,
or resulting from the work of extracting from that area of land bituminous
coal, lignite, or anthracite from its natural deposit in the earth.
