Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

represented in the General Assembly:
|
Section 5. The Illinois Procurement Code is amended by |
adding Section 45-75 as follows:
|
(30 ILCS 500/45-75 new) |
Sec. 45-75. Biobased products. When a State contract is to |
be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder, an otherwise |
qualified bidder who will fulfill the contract through the use |
of biobased products may be given preference over other bidders |
unable to do so, provided that the cost included in the bid of |
biobased products is not more than 5% greater than the cost of |
products that are not biobased. |
For the purpose of this Section, a biobased product is |
defined as in the federal Biobased Products Preferred |
Procurement Program. |
This Section does not apply to contracts for construction |
projects awarded by the Capital Development Board or the |
Department of Transportation.
