Includes in the definition of "participant" a local mass transit district organized under the Local Mass Transit Act serving a nonurbanized area and receiving federal rural public transportation assistance during Fiscal Year 2002 (rather than on the effective date of the amendatory Act of 1993). Makes an exception to the 10% limit on the increase in funding per year for a participant that received an initial appropriation in Fiscal Year 2002. Allows rural mass transit districts that lack local taxes or appropriations to receive funding equal to 75% of their eligible operating expenses in Fiscal Year 2003 and thereafter. Effective immediately. HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 1. Deletes reference to: 30 ILCS 740/2-7 Deletes provisions concerning quarterly reports required to be filed by rural mass transit districts that lack local taxes or appropriations. HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 2. Includes in the definition of "participant" a local mass transit district receiving federal rural public transportation assistance on or before June 30, 2002 (rather than during Fiscal Year 2002). HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 3. Adds reference to: 30 ILCS 740/2-7 from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 667 Amends the Downstate Public Transportation Act. Provides that the quarterly reports of any Metro-East Transit District participant must be filed no later than 60 days after the end of each quarter (rather than no later than 30 days after the end of each month) of any fiscal year. Provides that any Metro-East Transit District may either monthly or quarterly for any fiscal year file a request for the participant's eligible share of the amounts transferred into the Metro-East Public Transportation Fund (rather than providing that the Department of Transportation shall pay the participant its allocated share after determining that the operating deficits were incurred in conformity with the terms of the Act). Provides that any payments from the Fund that exceed the eligible deficit of the participant (rather than any discrepancy between the grants paid and the approved program amount) shall be reconciled by appropriate payment or credit.
