   drycleaning  facilities  are  subject to investigation and entitled to      
   cleanup by the Agency.  Provides  that,  instead  of  reimbursing  the

   for a drycleaning facility determined to be eligible for participation

   establishment, including drop stores. Deletes provisions  of  the  Act      
   regarding  environmental  insurance.   Provides  that,  on  or  before      
   January  1,  2022,  the  Agency,  in  conjunction  with  the  Advisory      
   Committee,  shall  study the necessity of continuing to impose certain      
   taxes and fees.  Makes  other  changes.   Repeals  a  Section  of  the

   Trust Fund Act to reflect changes in the cleanup  program.   Effective
