|
Section 5. The Environmental Protection Act is amended by |
changing Section 3.350 as follows:
|
(415 ILCS 5/3.350) (was 415 ILCS 5/3.58)
|
Sec. 3.350. Potential route. "Potential route" means |
abandoned
and improperly plugged wells of all kinds, drainage |
wells, all injection wells,
including closed loop heat pump |
wells, and any excavation for the discovery,

A new potential route is:
|
(1) a potential route which is not in existence or for |
which construction
has not commenced at its location as of |
January 1, 1988, or

is not permitted, the boundary
in existence as of January |
1, 1988.
|
Construction shall be deemed commenced when all necessary |
federal,
State and local approvals have been obtained, and work |
at the site has been
initiated and proceeds in a reasonably |
continuous manner to completion.
