Section 5. The Public Utilities Act is amended by changing | ||
Section 2-203 as follows:
| ||
(220 ILCS 5/2-203)
| ||
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2014)
| ||
Sec. 2-203. Public Utility Fund base maintenance | ||
contribution. Each electric
utility as defined in Section | ||
16-102 of this Act providing service to more than
12,500 | ||
customers in this State on January 1, 1995 shall contribute | ||
annually a
pro rata share of a total amount of $5,500,000 based |
upon the number of
kilowatt-hours delivered to retail customers | ||
within this State by each such
electric utility in the 12 | ||
months preceding the year of contribution. On or
before May 1 | ||
of each year, the Illinois Commerce Commission shall determine | ||
and
notify the Illinois Department of Revenue of the pro rata | ||
share owed by each
electric utility based upon information | ||
supplied annually to the Commission. On
or before June 1 of | ||
each year, the Department of Revenue shall send written
| ||
notification to each electric utility of the amount of pro rata | ||
share they owe.
These contributions shall be remitted to the | ||
Department of Revenue no earlier than
July 1 and no later than | ||
July 31 of each year the contribution is due on a
return | ||
prescribed and
furnished by the Department of Revenue showing | ||
such information as the
Department of Revenue may reasonably | ||
require. The Department of Revenue shall
place the funds | ||
remitted under this Section in the Public Utility Fund in the
| ||
State treasury. The funds received pursuant to this Section | ||
shall be subject to
appropriation by the General Assembly. If | ||
an electric utility does
not remit its pro rata share to the | ||
Department of Revenue, the Department of
Revenue must inform | ||
the Illinois Commerce Commission of such failure. The
Illinois | ||
Commerce Commission may then revoke the certification of that | ||
electric
utility. This Section is repealed on April 1, 2015 | ||
January 1, 2014 .
