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.
(220 ILCS 5/4-101) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 4-101)
Sec. 4-101. The Commerce Commission shall have general supervision of all
public utilities, except as otherwise provided in this Act, shall inquire into
the management of the business thereof and shall keep itself informed as to the
manner and method in which the business is conducted. It shall examine those
public utilities and keep informed as to their general condition, their
franchises, capitalization, rates and other charges, and the manner in which
their plants, equipment and other property owned, leased, controlled or
operated are managed, conducted and operated, not only with respect to the
adequacy, security and accommodation afforded by their service but also with
respect to their compliance with this Act and any other law, with the orders
of the Commission and with the charter and franchise requirements.
Whenever the Commission is authorized or required
by law to consider some aspect of criminal history record information for
the purpose of carrying out its statutory powers and responsibilities,
then, upon request and payment of fees in conformance with the requirements
of Section 2605-400 of the Illinois State Police Law, the Illinois State Police is authorized to furnish,
pursuant to positive identification, such information contained in State
files as is necessary to fulfill the request. The Commission shall require all public utilities to establish a security policy that includes on-site safeguards to restrict physical or electronic access to critical infrastructure and computerized control and data systems. The Commission shall maintain a record of and each regulated entity shall provide to the Commission an annual affidavit signed by a representative of the regulated entity that states:
(1) that the entity has a security policy in place; (2) that the entity has conducted at least one |
| practice exercise based on the security policy within the 12 months immediately preceding the date of the affidavit; and
|
|
(3) with respect to any entity that is an electric
|
| public utility, that the entity follows, at a minimum, the most current security standards set forth by the North American Electric Reliability Council.
