24 storing, transporting as cargo, selling, dispensing or use of

23  Section 10. The Illinois Hazardous Materials

24 Transportation Act is amended by changing Sections 2, 3, and

25 11 as follows:
    SB2108 Enrolled        -5-      LRB104 08359 LNS 18410 b

1   (430 ILCS 30/2) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 700-2)

2   Sec. 2. It is the finding of the General Assembly that

3 hazardous materials are essential for various industrial,

4 commercial and other purposes; that their transportation is a

5 necessary incident to their use; and that such transportation

6 is required for the employment and economic prosperity of the

7 People of the State of Illinois.

8   It is therefore declared to be the policy of the General

9 Assembly to improve the regulatory and enforcement authority

10 of the Illinois State Police Department of Transportation to

11 protect the People of the State of Illinois against the risk to

12 life and property inherent in the transportation of hazardous

13 materials over highways by keeping such risk to a minimum

14 consistent with technical feasibility and economic

15 reasonableness.

16  It is not the intent of the General Assembly to regulate

17 the movement of hazardous materials in such quantities that

18 would not pose a substantial danger to the public health and

19 safety, such as fuels, fertilizer and agricultural chemicals

20 while being used in a normal farming operation or in transit to

21 the farm.

10 deposited in the State Police Operations Assistance Road Fund.
