Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 13.2.

At the request of the owner or user of a
private well, the Agency shall provide for annual testing of water from

at no charge to the owner of the well.

Before obtaining a sample for testing, the Agency shall, not less than
5 business days prior to obtaining the sample, notify the owner or operator
of the sanitary landfill or hazardous waste disposal facility of the

testing procedure and analytical parameters to be evaluated.

Sample collection shall be conducted in cooperation with the Illinois
