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.

Sec. 3.485.

Storage site.

"Storage site" is a site at which
waste is stored.  "Storage site" includes transfer stations but does
not include (i) a site that accepts or receives waste in transfer containers
unless the waste is removed from the transfer container or unless the transfer
container becomes stationary, en route to a disposal, treatment, or storage
facility for more than 5 business days, or (ii) a site that accepts or receives
open top units containing only clean construction and demolition debris, or
(iii) a site that stores waste on a refuse motor vehicle
or in the vehicle's detachable refuse receptacle  for no more than 24
hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, but only if the
detachable refuse receptacle is completely covered
or enclosed and is stored on the same site as the refuse motor vehicle that
transported the receptacle to the site.

Nothing in this Section shall be construed to be less stringent than or
inconsistent with the provisions of the federal Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act of 1976 (P.L. 94-480) or regulations adopted under it.
