Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

415 ILCS 5/25d-4

(415 ILCS 5/25d-4)
Sec. 25d-4. Agency authority.

Whenever the Agency determines that a public notice should be issued under this Title, the Agency has  the authority to issue an information demand letter to the owner or operator of the site or facility where the release occurred or is suspected to have occurred that requires the owner or operator to provide the Agency with the information necessary, to the extent practicable, to give the notices required under Section 25d-3 of this Title.  In the case of a release or suspected release from an underground storage tank subject to Title XVI of this Act, the Agency has  the authority to issue such a letter to the owner or operator of the underground storage tank.  Within 30 days after the issuance of a letter under this Section, or within a greater period specified by the Agency, the person who receives the letter shall provide the Agency with the required information.   Any person who, without sufficient cause, willfully violates, or fails or refuses to comply with, any letter issued under this Section is in violation of this Act.
