(20 ILCS 3440/3) (from Ch. 127, par. 2663)
Sec. 3.
Any person who discovers human skeletal remains subject to
this Act shall promptly notify the coroner. Any person who knowingly fails
to report such a discovery within 48 hours is guilty of a Class C
misdemeanor, unless such person has reasonable cause to believe that the
coroner had already been so notified. If the human skeletal remains appear
to be from an unregistered grave, the coroner shall promptly notify the
Historic Preservation Agency prior to their removal. Nothing in this Act
shall be construed to apply to human skeletal remains subject to "An Act to
revise the law in relation to coroners".
