Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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.

(70 ILCS 1860/14) (from Ch. 19, par. 297)
Sec. 14.
It is unlawful to make any fill or deposit of rock, earth, sand,
or other material, or any refuse matter of any kind or description, or
build or commence the building of any wharf, pier, dolphin, boom, weir,
breakwater, bulkhead, jetty, bridge, or other structure over, under, or
within 50 feet of any navigable waters within the Port District without
first submitting the plans, profiles, and specifications therefor, and such
other data and information as may be required, to the Port District and
receiving a permit therefor; and any person, corporation, company, city or
municipality or other agency, which shall do any of the things above
prohibited, without securing a permit therefor as above provided, shall be
guilty of a Class A misdemeanor; provided, however, that no such permit
shall be required in the case of any project for which a permit shall have
been secured from a proper governmental agency prior to the creation of the
Port District nor shall any such permit be required in the case of any
project to be undertaken by the City of Venice, the City of Madison, the
City of Granite City or the Bi-State Development Agency, or any combination
thereof, for which a permit is required from a governmental agency other
than the District before the city or such agency can proceed with such
project. And in such event, such cities and such agency, or any of them,
shall give at least 10 days' notice to the District of the application for
a permit for any such project from a governmental agency other than the
District so that the District may be present and represent its position
relative to such application before such other governmental agency. Any
structure, fill or deposit erected or made in any of the public bodies of
water within the Port District, in violation of the provisions of this
section, is a purpresture and may be abated as such at the expense of the
person, corporation, company, city, municipality or other agency
responsible therefor, or if, in the discretion of the Port District, it is
decided that said structure, fill or deposit may remain, the Port District
may fix such rule, regulation, requirement, restrictions, or rentals or
require and compel such changes, modifications and repairs as shall be
necessary to protect the interest of the Port District.
