1   AN ACT concerning transportation.

2   Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

3 represented in the General Assembly:

4   Section 5. The Department of Transportation Law of the

5 Civil Administrative Code of Illinois is amended by changing

6 Section 2705-590 as follows:

7   (20 ILCS 2705/2705-590)

8   Sec. 2705-590. Roadbuilding criteria; life-cycle cost

9 analysis.

10  (a) As used in this Section, "life-cycle cost" means the

11 total of the cost of the initial project plus all anticipated

12 future costs over the life of the pavement. Actual, relevant

13 data, and not assumptions or estimates, shall be used to the

14 extent such data has been collected.

15  (b) The Department shall develop and implement a

16 life-cycle cost analysis for each State new construction,

17 reconstruction, or replacement road project under its

18 jurisdiction for which the total pavement costs exceed

19 $500,000 funded in whole, or in part, with State or

20 State-appropriated funds. State rehabilitation and

21 preservation projects shall be exempt from this requirement.

22 The Department shall design and award these paving projects

23 utilizing material having the lowest life-cycle cost. All
    SB1999 Enrolled       -2-             LRB104 11961 LNS 22054 b

1 pavement design life shall ensure that State and

2 State-appropriated funds are utilized as efficiently as

3 possible. When alternative material options are substantially

4 equivalent on a life-cycle cost basis, the Department may make

5 a decision based on other criteria. At the discretion of the

6 Department, interstate highways with high traffic volumes or

7 experimental projects may be exempt from this requirement.

8   (c) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, a

9 life-cycle cost analysis shall compare equivalent designs

10 based upon this State's actual historic project schedules and

11 costs as recorded by the pavement management system, and may

12 include estimates of user costs throughout the entire pavement

13 life.

14  (d) For pavement projects for which this State has no

15 actual historic project schedules and costs as recorded by the

16 pavement management system, the Department may use actual

17 historical and comparable data for equivalent designs from

18 states with similar climates, soil structures, or vehicle

19 traffic.

21  Section 10. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by

22 changing Section 11-101-3 as follows:

23  (65 ILCS 5/11-101-3)

24  Sec. 11-101-3. Noise mitigation; air quality.
   SB1999 Enrolled  -3-  LRB104 11961 LNS 22054 b

1  (a) A municipality that has implemented a Residential

2 Sound Insulation Program to mitigate aircraft noise shall

3 perform indoor air quality monitoring and laboratory analysis

4 of windows and doors installed pursuant to the Residential

5 Sound Insulation Program to determine whether there are any

6 adverse health impacts associated with off-gassing from such

7 windows and doors. Such monitoring and analysis shall be

8 consistent with applicable professional and industry

9 standards. The municipality shall make any final reports

10 resulting from such monitoring and analysis available to the

11 public on the municipality's website. The municipality shall

12 develop a science-based mitigation plan to address significant

13 health-related impacts, if any, associated with such windows

14 and doors as determined by the results of the monitoring and

15 analysis. In a municipality that has implemented a Residential

16 Sound Insulation Program to mitigate aircraft noise, if

17 requested by the homeowner pursuant to a process established

18 by the municipality, which process shall include, at a

19 minimum, notification in a newspaper of general circulation

20 and a mailer sent to every address identified as a recipient of

21 windows and doors installed under the Residential Sound

22 Insulation Program, the municipality shall replace all windows

23 and doors installed under the Residential Sound Insulation

24 Program in such homes where one or more windows or doors have

25 been found to have caused offensive odors. Subject to

26 appropriation, the municipality shall replace windows and
SB1999 Enrolled  -4-  LRB104 11961 LNS 22054 b

 1 doors in at least 750 residences a year. Residents who altered
 2 or modified a replacement window or accepted a replacement
 3 screen for the window shall not be disqualified from
 4 compensation or future services. Only those homeowners who
 5 request that the municipality perform an odor inspection as
 6 prescribed by the process established by the municipality
 7 within 6 months of notification being published and mailers
 8 being sent shall be eligible for odorous window and odorous
 9 door replacement. Residents who are eligible to receive
10 replacement windows shall be allowed to choose the color and
11 type of replacement window. For purposes of aiding in the
12 selection of such replacement windows, a showcase and display
13 of available replacement window types shall be established and
14 located at Chicago Midway International Airport. Homes that
15 have been identified by the municipality as having odorous
16 windows or doors are not required to make said request to the
17 municipality. The right to make a claim for replacement and
18 have it considered pursuant to this Section shall not be
19 affected by the fact of odor-related claims made or
20 odor-related products received pursuant to the Residential
21 Sound Insulation Program prior to June 5, 2019 (the effective
22 date of this Section). The municipality shall also perform
23 in-home air quality testing in residences in which windows and
24 doors are replaced under this Section. In order to receive
25 in-home air quality testing, a homeowner must request such
26 testing from the municipality, and the total number of homes
   SB1999 Enrolled  -5-  LRB104 11961 LNS 22054 b

1 tested in any given year shall not exceed 25% of the total

2 number of homes in which windows and doors were replaced under

3 this Section in the prior calendar year.

4  (b) An advisory committee shall be formed, composed of the

5 following: (i) 2 members of the municipality who reside in

6 homes that have received windows or doors pursuant to the

7 Residential Sound Insulation Program and have been identified

8 by the municipality as having odorous windows or doors,

9 appointed by the Secretary of Transportation; (ii) one

10 employee of the Aeronautics Division of the Department of

11 Transportation who shall only cast votes when breaking a tie;

12 (iii) 2 employees of the municipality that implemented the

13 Residential Sound Insulation Program in question; and (iv) 2

14 members appointed by the Speaker of the House of

15 Representatives, 2 members appointed by the President of the

16 Senate, one member appointed by the Minority Leader of the

17 House of Representatives, and one member appointed by the

18 Minority Leader of the Senate. The advisory committee shall

19 determine by majority vote which homes contain windows or

20 doors that cause offensive odors and thus are eligible for

21 replacement, shall promulgate a list of such homes, and shall

22 develop recommendations as to the order in which homes are to

23 receive window replacement. The recommendations shall include

24 reasonable and objective criteria for determining which

25 windows or doors are odorous, consideration of the date of

26 odor confirmation for prioritization, severity of odor,
SB1999 Enrolled  -6-  LRB104 11961 LNS 22054 b

 1 geography and individual hardship, and shall provide such
 2 recommendations to the municipality. The advisory committee
 3 shall develop a process in which homeowners can demonstrate
 4 extreme hardship. As used in this subsection, "extreme
 5 hardship" means: liquid infiltration of the window or door;
 6 health and medical condition of the resident; and residents
 7 with sensitivities related to smell. At least 10% of the homes
 8 receiving a replacement in a year shall be homes that have
 9 demonstrated extreme hardship. The advisory committee shall
10 compile a report demonstrating: (i) the number of homes in
11 line to receive a replacement; (ii) the number of homes that
12 received replacement windows or doors, or both; (iii) the
13 number of homes that received financial compensation instead
14 of a replacement; and (iv) the number of homes with confirmed
15 mechanical issues. Until December 31, 2022, the report shall
16 be compiled monthly, after December 31, 2022, the report shall
17 be complied quarterly. The advisory committee shall accept all
18 public questions and furnish a written response within 2
19 business days. The advisory committee shall comply with the
20 requirements of the Open Meetings Act. The Chicago Department
21 of Aviation shall provide administrative support to the
22 committee. The municipality shall consider the recommendations
23 of the committee but shall retain final decision-making
24 authority over replacement of windows and doors installed
25 under the Residential Sound Insulation Program, and shall
26 comply with all federal, State, and local laws involving
    SB1999 Enrolled              -7-  LRB104 11961 LNS 22054 b

1 procurement. A municipality administering claims pursuant to

2 this Section shall provide to every address identified as

3 having submitted a valid claim under this Section a quarterly

4 report setting forth the municipality's activities undertaken

5 pursuant to this Section for that quarter. However, the

6 municipality shall replace windows and doors pursuant to this

7 Section only if, and to the extent, grants are distributed to,

8 and received by, the municipality from the Sound-Reducing

9 Windows and Doors Replacement Fund for the costs associated

10 with the replacement of sound-reducing windows and doors

11 installed under the Residential Sound Insulation Program

12 pursuant to Section 6z-20.1 of the State Finance Act. In

13 addition, the municipality shall revise its specifications for

14 procurement of windows for the Residential Sound Insulation

15 Program to address potential off-gassing from such windows in

16 future phases of the program. A municipality subject to the

17 Section shall not legislate or otherwise regulate with regard

18 to indoor air quality monitoring, laboratory analysis or

19 replacement requirements, except as provided in this Section,

20 but the foregoing restriction shall not limit said

21 municipality's taxing power.

22  (c) A home rule unit may not regulate indoor air quality

23 monitoring and laboratory analysis, and related mitigation and

24 mitigation plans, in a manner inconsistent with this Section.

25 This Section is a limitation of home rule powers and functions

26 under subsection (i) of Section 6 of Article VII of the
    SB1999 Enrolled         -8-        LRB104 11961 LNS 22054 b

1 Illinois Constitution on the concurrent exercise by home rule

2 units of powers and functions exercised by the State.

3   (d) This Section shall not be construed to create a

4 private right of action.
