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.

210 ILCS 47/3-308

    (210 ILCS 47/3-308)
    Sec. 3-308. Time of assessment; plan of correction. In the case of a Type "AA" or Type "A" violation, a penalty may be assessed from the date on which the violation is discovered. In the case of a Type "B" or Type "C" violation or an administrative warning issued pursuant to Sections 3-401 through 3-413 or the rules promulgated thereunder, the facility shall submit a plan of correction as provided in Section 3-303. In the case of a Type "B" violation or an administrative warning issued pursuant to Sections 3-401 through 3-413 or the rules promulgated thereunder, a penalty shall be assessed on the date of notice of the violation, but the Director may reduce the amount or waive such payment for any of the following reasons:
    (a) The facility submits a true report of correction within 10 days;
    (b) The facility submits a plan of correction within 10 days and subsequently submits a true report of correction within 15 days thereafter;
    (c) The facility submits a plan of correction within 10 days which provides for a correction time that is less than or equal to 30 days and the Department approves such plan; or
    (d) The facility submits a plan of correction for violations involving substantial capital improvements which provides for correction within the initial 90 day limit provided under Section 3-303. The Director shall consider the following factors in determinations to reduce or waive such penalties:
        (1) The violation has not caused actual harm to a
    
resident;
        (2) The facility has made a diligent effort to
    
correct the violation and to prevent its recurrence;
        (3) The facility has no record of a pervasive
    
pattern of the same or similar violations; and
        (4) The facility has a record of substantial
    
compliance with this Act and the regulations promulgated hereunder.
    If a plan of correction is approved and carried out for a Type "C" violation, the fine provided under Section 3-305 shall be suspended for the time period specified in the approved plan of correction. If a plan of correction is approved and carried out for a Type "B" violation or an administrative warning issued pursuant to Sections 3-401 through 3-413 or the rules promulgated thereunder, with respect to a violation that continues after the date of notice of violation, the fine provided under Section 3-305 shall be suspended for the time period specified in the approved plan of correction.
    If a good faith plan of correction is not received within the time provided by Section 3-303, a penalty may be assessed from the date of the notice of the Type "B" or "C" violation or an administrative warning issued pursuant to Sections 3-401 through 3-413 or the rules promulgated thereunder served under Section 3-301 until the date of the receipt of a good faith plan of correction, or until the date the violation is corrected, whichever is earlier. If a violation is not corrected within the time specified by an approved plan of correction or any lawful extension thereof, a penalty may be assessed from the date of notice of the violation, until the date the violation is corrected.
