 1        AN ACT concerning alternate fuels.

 2        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section  5.   The  Alternate  Fuels  Act  is  amended  by
 5    changing Section 20 as follows:

 6        (415 ILCS 120/20)
 7        Sec. 20.  Rules. Rules implementing Section  30  of  this
 8    Act  shall  include,  but  are not limited to, calculation of
 9    fuel cost differential rebates and designation of  acceptable
10    conversion and OEM technologies.
11        In designating acceptable conversion or OEM technologies,
12    the  Agency must shall favor, when available, technology that
13    is in compliance with the federal Clean Air Act Amendments of
14    1990 and the  applicable  implementing  federal  regulations.
15    Conversion  and  OEM  technologies  that demonstrate emission
16    reduction capabilities that meet or exceed emission standards
17    applicable for the vehicle's  model  year  and  weight  class
18    shall be acceptable.  Standards requiring proper installation
19    of  approved conversion technologies shall be included in the
20    recommended rules.
21        Notwithstanding the above, engines used in alternate fuel
22    vehicles greater  than  8500  pounds  GVWR,  whether  new  or
23    remanufactured,  shall  meet  the  appropriate  United States
24    Environmental Protection Agency emissions  standards  at  the
25    time  of  manufacture,  and  if  converted,  shall  meet  the
26    standards in effect at the time of conversion.
