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.

415 ILCS 5/55.7

(415 ILCS 5/55.7) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1055.7)

Sec. 55.7.

The Agency may adopt
regulations as necessary for the
administration of the grant and loan programs funded from the Used Tire
Management Fund, including but not limited to procedures and criteria for
applying for, evaluating, awarding and terminating grants and loans.  The Agency
 may by rule specify criteria
for providing grant assistance
rather than loan assistance; such criteria shall promote the expeditious
development of alternatives to the disposal of used tires, and the
efficient use of monies for assistance.  Evaluation criteria may be
established by rule, considering such factors as:

(1) the likelihood that a proposal will lead to the

actual collection and processing of used tires and protection of the environment and public health in furtherance of the purposes of this Act;

(2) the feasibility of the proposal;

(3) the suitability of the location for the proposed

activity;

(4) the potential of the proposal for encouraging

recycling and reuse of resources; and

(5) the potential for development of new technologies

consistent with the purposes of this Act.
