| 1 | | activities. The activities may include, but not be limited to, | 2 | | the painting of fire hydrants; routine over-coat painting of | 3 | | interior and exterior building surfaces such as floors, doors, | 4 | | windows, and ceilings; and routine touch-up and over-coat | 5 | | application of paint products typically found on water utility | 6 | | pumps, pipes, tanks, and other water treatment plant | 7 | | appurtenances and utility owned structures. Those rules shall | 8 | | include: | 9 | | (1) standards for ensuring that community water | 10 | | supplies carry out corrosion prevention and mitigation | 11 | | methods according to corrosion prevention industry | 12 | | standards adopted by the Agency; | 13 | | (2) requirements that community water supplies use: | 14 | | (A) protective coatings personnel to carry out | 15 | | corrosion prevention and mitigation methods on any | 16 | | type of substrate or surface, including, but not | 17 | | limited to, concrete and steel tanks; water treatment | 18 | | pipe galleys; doors; walls; ceilings; grating; | 19 | | interior and exterior cabinets related to controls, | 20 | | pumps, and generators; or any other water treatment | 21 | | appurtenances where protective coatings are utilized | 22 | | for corrosion control and prevention to prolong the | 23 | | life of the water utility asset; and | 24 | | (B) inspectors to ensure that best practices and | 25 | | standards are adhered to on each corrosion prevention | 26 | | project; and |
| | | 09900HB3323sam004 | - 3 - | LRB099 11080 JLS 35759 a |
|
| 1 | | (3) standards to prevent environmental degradation | 2 | | that might occur as a result of carrying out corrosion | 3 | | prevention and mitigation methods including, but not | 4 | | limited to, standards to prevent the improper handling and | 5 | | containment of hazardous materials, especially lead paint, | 6 | | removed from the exterior of a community water supply. | 7 | | In adopting rules under this subsection (a), the Agency
| 8 | | shall obtain input from corrosion industry experts
| 9 | | specializing in the training of personnel to
carry out | 10 | | corrosion prevention and mitigation methods. | 11 | | (b) As used in this Section: | 12 | | "Community water supply" has the meaning ascribed to that
| 13 | | term in Section 3.145 of this Act. | 14 | | "Corrosion" means a naturally occurring phenomenon
| 15 | | commonly defined as the deterioration of a material (usually a
| 16 | | metal) that results from a chemical or electrochemical reaction
| 17 | | with its environment. | 18 | | "Corrosion prevention and mitigation methods" means: | 19 | | (1) the preparation, application, installation,
| 20 | | removal, or general maintenance as necessary of a
| 21 | | protective coating system, including any or more of the
| 22 | | following: | 23 | | (A) surface preparation and coating application on
| 24 | | the exterior or interior of a community water supply; | 25 | | (B) removal of a lead-based or other hazardous
| 26 | | coating from a community water supply; |
| | | 09900HB3323sam004 | - 4 - | LRB099 11080 JLS 35759 a |
|
| 1 | | (C) shop painting of structural steel fabricated
| 2 | | for installation as part of a community water supply;
| 3 | | or | 4 | | (D) installation of any polymer coating or
| 5 | | surfacing on any concrete, or other cementitious
| 6 | | substrate, that is a part of a community water supply;
| 7 | | and | 8 | | (2) any other activities that are (i) related to
| 9 | | corrosion prevention, such as cathodic protection, of a
| 10 | | community water supply and (ii) determined by the Agency to
| 11 | | require industry trained personnel to carry
out. | 12 | | "Corrosion prevention project" means carrying out
| 13 | | corrosion prevention and mitigation methods. | 14 | | (c) This Section shall apply to only those projects | 15 | | receiving 100% funding from the State. | 16 | | (d) Any contractors providing services covered by this | 17 | | Section shall comply with Section 30-22 of the Illinois | 18 | | Procurement Code.
The requirements of this Section do not apply | 19 | | to an individual licensed under the Professional Engineering | 20 | | Practice Act of 1989 or the Structural Engineering Act of 1989. | 21 | | Section 10. The Illinois Highway Code is amended by adding | 22 | | Section 4-106 as follows: | 23 | | (605 ILCS 5/4-106 new) | 24 | | Sec. 4-106. Preservation of bridge infrastructure. |
