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. 35. Penalties.

(a) A person required to be licensed under Section 25 of this Act who
sells a device or performs a service without being properly licensed under this
Act may be assessed a civil penalty by the Agency not to the exclusion of any other penalty authorized by law in an amount not to exceed $5,000, for each offense, as determined
by
the Agency.  Any person assessed a civil penalty under this Section shall
be afforded an opportunity for hearing in accordance with Agency
						
regulations prior to final action by the Agency.  The civil penalty must be
paid within 30 days after the order becomes a final and binding administrative
determination.

(b) A person who violates a provision of this
Act shall be guilty of a business offense and may be
fined not less than $500 nor more than $1,000 for the first offense and shall
be
guilty of a Class A misdemeanor for a subsequent offense.
Each day that a violation continues constitutes a
separate offense. A
 licensed radon contractor found guilty of a violation of
a provision of this Act may
						
have his or her license terminated
by the Agency.
