   605 ILCS 5/4-411 new                                                        

        Amends the Illinois Highway Code. Provides that  the  failure  of      
   any  person  or  entity  to  remove  from a State highway any property      
   placed there by the  person  or  entity  in  connection  with  a  road      
   improvement  project,  within  a  reasonable  time after the person or      
   entity has ceased to work  on  the  project,  is  a  business  offense      
   punishable  by  a  fine  of  not  more than $2,500.  Provides that the      
   offense is committed when the entity has received written notice  from      
   the  Department of Transportation that an offense punishable by a fine      
   of up to $2,500 per day would be committed if  the  property  was  not      
   removed  in  15  days,  and the property has not been removed as of 15      
   days after the date the written notice was received.  Provides that  a      
   separate offense, punishable by a separate fine, is committed each day      
   the property remains on the highway after the 15-day notice period has      
   elapsed.                                                                    
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1.

          605 ILCS 5/4-411 new                                                 
          Adds reference to:                                                   
          605 ILCS 5/9-113                from Ch. 121, par. 9-113             
        Deletes everything after the enacting clause.  Provides  that  if      
   ditches, drains, track, rails, poles, pipes, lines, or other equipment      
   previously  placed  along  a  State highway with the permission of the      
   State highway authority have not been removed, relocated, or  modified      
   to  the  satisfaction  of  the  State  highway authority 90 days after      
   notice to do so, the owner of  the  equipment  is  in  breach  of  the      
   written  consent and is subject to liquidated damages of not more than      
   $500 per day. Provides that neither the State nor any contractor hired      
   by the State under the provision to remove, relocate,  or  modify  the      
   equipment is liable or responsible for any resulting injury to persons      
   or damage to property.                                                      
        HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                 
        Provides that the provision applies to equipment placed along any      
   highway with the permission of the appropriate highway  authority  (as      
   well  as to equipment placed along a State highway with the permission      
   of the State  highway  authority).  Deletes  language  providing  that      
   neither  the  State  nor  any  contractor hired by the State under the      
   provision to remove, relocate, or modify the equipment  is  liable  or      
   responsible for any resulting injury to persons or damage to property.      
        HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 2.                                                 
        Provides that the State highway  authority  shall  and  a  county      
   highway  authority  may  adopt  coordination  strategies and practices      
   designed to establish and implement effective communication  regarding      
   removal,  relocation, or modification of property to make way for road      
   construction.  Provides  that  the  strategies  and  practices   shall      
   include the establishment of coordination councils to facilitate the        
   necessary activity.  Provides that the coordination councils must be        
   established on or before January 1, 2002. Deletes the amendatory            
   provisions of the bill as previously amended and reinserts them with        
   changes. Provides that a highway authority that fails to establish a        
   coordination council waives the right to enforce the 90 day notice          
   provision regarding  removal, relocation, or removal.  Establishes          
   procedures to be followed in requiring the removal, relocation, or          
   modification of property.
