Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Procurement Code, the Illinois Highway Code, and the Toll Highway Act. Provides that on and after January 1, 2016, 25% of all vehicles purchased with State funds shall be vehicles fueled by electricity, compressed natural gas, liquid petroleum gas, or liquid natural gas. Provides that by January 1, 2016, the Illinois Department of Transportation shall construct and maintain at least one electric vehicle charging station at each rest area on State highways. Provides that by January 1, 2016, the Toll Highway Authority shall construct and maintain at least one electric vehicle charging station at any location where the Authority has entered into an agreement with any entity for the purposes of providing motor fuel service stations and facilities, garages, stores, or restaurants along the toll highways. Directs the Department and Authority to adopt rules to implement these requirements.

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Provides that the Department of Transportation and the Toll Highway Authority shall charge a fee to users of the electric charging stations to offset the costs of construction and maintenance of the charging stations. Provides that the Department of Transportation and the Toll Highway Authority shall set the fees by rule.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
Provides an exception to the requirement that 25% of vehicles purchased use alternative fuel sources for Department of State Police patrol vehicles.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Provides that the Department of Corrections is exempt from the alternative fuel vehicle purchasing requirements.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 2
Removes the requirement that the Department of Transportation construct and maintain electric vehicle charging stations at each rest area on State highways and charge a user fee for use of the stations, instead providing that the Department may provide stations at rest areas on interstate highways by January 1, 2016 or as soon as possible thereafter where providing the stations and the charging of user fees is allowed by federal regulation. Provides that the Department of Transportation may (rather than "shall" ) adopt rules regarding the type, place of erection, user fees, and maintenance of charging stations.
