Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)

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 740/6) (from Ch. 96 1/2, par. 6913)
    Sec. 6. Any person hauling or transporting timber that is subject to the Timber Buyers Licensing Act on any highway in this State shall be required to show proof of ownership as defined in this Act, except that interstate transporters originating outside of this State and traveling to destinations within or outside of this State may show documents in accordance with federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration rules in lieu of such proof of ownership.
    If any person who is subject to this Act is unable to show proof of ownership, the timber so hauled or transported and the vehicle or conveyance used as the means of transportation may be held by the Department for disposition subject to court order. The information required for proof of ownership shall be set by the Department by administrative rule.
