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.

the Department shall determine if, more likely than not, the provisions of
the Act have been
met and shall send notice to the applicant and the county board indicating that
construction may
proceed.  If the
Department finds that, more likely than not, the provisions of the Act have not
been met the

Section, the
Department may request such information or changes from the owner or operator
of the new
livestock waste handling facility or waste management facility.

(b) If no informational meeting is held, the Department shall, within 15
calendar days
following the end of the period for the county board to request an
informational meeting, notify the
owner or operator that construction may begin or that clarification is needed.

(c) If the owner or operator of a proposed livestock management facility or
livestock
waste handling facility amends the facility plans during the Department's
review, the Department
shall notify the county board, which may exercise its option of a public
informational meeting
pursuant to Section 12 of this Act.

(d) If the owner or operator of a proposed new livestock management or new
livestock
waste handling facility amends the facility plans during the Department's
review process by
increasing the animal unit capacity of the facility such that the required
setback distances will be
increased, the owner or operator shall submit a revised notice of intent to
construct and comply
with applicable provisions of this Act.
