 1                    AMENDMENT TO HOUSE BILL 2864
 2        AMENDMENT NO.     .  Amend House Bill 2864  by  replacing
 3    everything after the enacting clause with the following:
 4        "Section 5.  The Local Records Act is amended by changing
 5    Section 7 as follows:
 6        (50 ILCS 205/7) (from Ch. 116, par. 43.107)
 7        Sec. 7.  Disposition rules.  Except as otherwise provided
 8    by  law, no public record shall be disposed of by any officer
 9    or agency unless the  written  approval  of  the  appropriate
10    Local Records Commission is first obtained.
11        The  Commission  shall  issue  regulations which shall be
12    binding  on  all  such  officers.  Such   regulations   shall
13    establish  procedures  for  compiling  and  submitting to the
14    Commission lists and schedules of public records proposed for
15    disposal; procedures for the physical  destruction  or  other
16    disposition  of  such  public  records; and standards for the
17    reproduction  of  such   public   records   by   photography,
18    microphotographic  processes, or digitized electronic format.
19    Such standards shall relate to the quality of the film to  be
20    used,  preparation  of  the  public  records  for  filming or
21    electronic conversion, proper identification matter  on  such
22    records so that an individual document or series of documents
                            -2-              LRB9010049PTbdam
 1    can  be located on the film or digitized electronic form with
 2    reasonable  facility,  and  that  the  copies   contain   all
 3    significant record detail, to the end that the copies will be
 4    adequate.  Any public record may be reproduced onto digitized
 5    electronic format and the original record disposed of if: (i)
 6    the Commission has given or does give  written  approval  for
 7    disposal  after  a retention period of 10 years or less, (ii)
 8    the  reproduction  process  forms  a  durable   medium   that
 9    accurately  and legibly reproduces the original record in all
10    details and that does not  permit  additions,  deletions,  or
11    changes  to  the  original  document  images,  and  (iii) the
12    reproduction is retained for the prescribed retention period.
13        Such  regulations  shall  also  provide  that  the  State
14    archivist may retain any records  which  the  Commission  has
15    authorized  to  be  destroyed,  where  they have a historical
16    value, and that the State archivist may deposit them  in  the
17    State Library or State Historical Museum or with a historical
18    society, museum or library.
