NOVAK-WINTERS. 415 ILCS 5/1 from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1001 Amends the Environmental Protection Act. Makes technical changes in a Section concerning the short title. STATE MANDATES NOTE, H-AM 3 (Department of Commerce and Community Affairs) In the opinion of DCCA, HB 2576 (H-am 3) does not create a State mandate under the State Mandates Act. HOME RULE NOTE, H-AM 3 (Department of Commerce and Community Affairs) This legislation does not contain language indicating a pre- emption of home rule powers and functions. Therefore, in the opinion of DCCA, HB 2576 (H-am 3) does not preempt home rule authority. HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 3. Deletes reference to: 415 ILCS 5/1 Adds reference to: 415 ILCS 5/4 from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1004 Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Environmental Protection Act. Designates the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency as administrator of wetlands and erosion control programs under the federal Clean Water Act for the State of Illinois. Provides that beginning on the effective date, no other commission, agency, district, or other governmental entity has any authority to regulate wetlands or erosion control programs, except as may be delegated to it by the Agency or otherwise specifically granted by law. Effective immediately. FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 3 (Environmental Protection Agency) The U.S. Supreme Court held that the U.S. Army Corps of Engi- neers did not have the authority to regulate isolated wetlands under the federal Clean Water Act. Since isolated wetlands are no longer covered by the federal Clean Water Act, it is unclear what authority and responsibilities the Agency would be requir- ed to administer. Therefore, the Agency is unable to determine a fiscal impact.
