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.

(210 ILCS 45/3-309) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 4153-309)

Sec. 3-309.

A facility may contest an assessment of a penalty by sending
a written request to the Department for hearing under Section 3-703.  Upon
receipt of the request the Department shall hold a hearing as provided under
Section 3-703. Instead of requesting a hearing pursuant to Section 3-703, a facility may, within 10 business days after receipt of the notice of violation and fine assessment, transmit to the Department  65% of the amount assessed for each violation specified in the penalty assessment.
