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.

505 ILCS 100/14

(505 ILCS 100/14) (from Ch. 5, par. 964)

Sec. 14.

To prevent the dissemination of noxious weeds through any article,
including machinery, equipment, plants, materials and other things, the
Director, in consultation with the Dean of the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences of
the University of Illinois and the Director of the Agricultural
Experiment Station at the University of Illinois, shall, from time to
time, publish a list of noxious weeds which may be disseminated through
articles and a list of articles capable of disseminating such weeds, and
designate treatment of such articles as, in his opinion, would prevent
such dissemination. Until such article is treated in accordance with the
applicable regulations, it shall not be moved from such premises except
under and in accordance with the written permission of the Control
Authority having jurisdiction of the area in which such article is
located, and the Control Authority may hold or prevent its movement from
such premises. The movement of any such article which has not been so
decontaminated, except in accordance with such written permission, may
be stopped by the Control Authority having jurisdiction over the place
in which such movement is taking place and further movement and
disposition shall only be in accordance with such Control Authority's
direction.
