(220 ILCS 5/2-203)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2014)
Sec. 2-203. Public Utility Fund base maintenance contribution. Each electric
utility as defined in Section 16-102 of this Act providing service to more than
12,500 customers in this State on January 1, 1995 shall contribute annually a
pro rata share of a total amount of $5,500,000 based upon the number of
kilowatt-hours delivered to retail customers within this State by each such
electric utility in the 12 months preceding the year of contribution. On or
before May 1 of each year, the Illinois Commerce Commission shall determine and
notify the Illinois Department of Revenue of the pro rata share owed by each
electric utility based upon information supplied annually to the Commission. On
or before June 1 of each year, the Department of Revenue shall send written
notification to each electric utility of the amount of pro rata share they owe.
These contributions shall be remitted to the Department of Revenue no earlier than
July 1 and no later than July 31 of each year the contribution is due on a
return prescribed and
furnished by the Department of Revenue showing such information as the
Department of Revenue may reasonably require. The Department of Revenue shall
place the funds remitted under this Section in the Public Utility Fund in the
State treasury. The funds received pursuant to this Section shall be subject to
appropriation by the General Assembly. If an electric utility does
not remit its pro rata share to the Department of Revenue, the Department of
Revenue must inform the Illinois Commerce Commission of such failure. The
Illinois Commerce Commission may then revoke the certification of that electric
utility. This Section is repealed on January 1, 2014.
