Illinois Compiled Statutes

Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
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.

    (605 ILCS 5/4-222)
    Sec. 4-222. Recycled asphalt roofing shingles; cost savings; prohibitions on use in asphalt paving.
    (a) It shall be the goal of the Department, with regard to its asphalt paving projects and to the extent possible, to reduce the carbon footprint and reduce average costs by maximizing the percentage use of recycled materials or lowest cost alternative materials and extending the paving season so long as there is no detrimental impact on life-cycle costs. In furtherance of these goals, the Department shall provide to the Chairpersons of the Transportation Committee in each legislative chamber, within 60 days after the completion of each fiscal year, a written report of the activities initiated or abandoned in each district or region within the Department to meet those goals during the previous year. The report shall also include an analysis of the cost savings directly or indirectly attributed to those activities within each district or region. Upon review of the annual report, the Transportation Committees in each chamber may conduct hearings and provide recommendations to the Department regarding the performance of each district or region.
    (b) No producer of asphalt pavement, operating pursuant to an air permit issued by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, shall use recycled asphalt roofing shingles in its pavement product unless the shingles have been processed for recycling into asphalt pavement in accordance with (i) permits issued pursuant to Section 39 of the Environmental Protection Act or (ii) beneficial use determinations issued pursuant to Section 22.54 of the Environmental Protection Act. The prohibition in this subsection (b) shall apply in addition to any other rules, specifications, or other requirements adopted by the Department regarding the use of asphalt roofing shingles in pavement product.
