    AN ACT concerning safety.

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


 
    Section 5. The Illinois Pesticide Act is amended  by 
changing Section 13 as follows:
 



    (415 ILCS 60/13)  (from Ch. 5, par. 813)



    Sec. 13. Pesticide dealers. Any pesticide dealer who sells 
Restricted
Use pesticides shall be registered with the 
Department on forms provided by
the Director. Beginning July 1, 
2005, any pesticide dealer that sells non-restricted use 
pesticides for use in the production of an agricultural 
commodity in containers with a capacity of 2.5 gallons or 
greater or 10 pounds or greater must also register with the 
Department on forms provided by the Director.  Registration 
shall consist of passing a required
examination and payment of 
a $100 registration fee.
The late application fee for a 
pesticide dealer registration shall be $20 in
addition to the 
normal pesticide dealer registration fee.  A pesticide dealer

shall be assessed a fee of $5 for a duplicate registration.

    Dealers who hold a Structural Pest Control license with the 
Illinois
Department of Public Health or a Commercial 
Applicator's
license with the Illinois Department of 
Agriculture are exempt from the
registration fee but must 
register with the Department.

    Each place of business which sells restricted use 
pesticides or non-restricted pesticides for use in the 
production of an agricultural commodity in containers with a 
capacity of 2.5 gallons or greater or 10 pounds or greater

shall be considered a separate entity for the purpose of 
registration.
    Registration as a pesticide dealer shall expire on December 
31 of each
year.  Pesticide dealers shall be certified in 
accordance with Section 9
of this Act.

    The Director may prescribe, by rule, requirements for the 
registration
and testing of any pesticide dealer selling other 
than restricted use
pesticides and such rules shall include the 
establishment of a
registration fee in an amount not to exceed 
the pesticide dealer registration
fee.

    The Department may refuse to issue or may suspend the 
registration
of any person who fails to file a return, or to 
pay the tax, penalty, or
interest shown in a filed return, or 
to pay any final assessment of tax,
penalty, or interest, as 
required by any tax Act administered by the
Illinois Department 
of Revenue, until such time as the requirements of any
such tax 
Act are satisfied.
