Bill Title: Amends the Environmental Protection Act. Requires the person complained against, when filing certain responses with the Environmental Protection Agency, to provide the proposed terms for a Compliance Commitment Agreement (CCA) rather than the proposed CCA. Requires the Agency to provide the proposed CCA or a notice that certain violations cannot be resolved without the involvement of the Office of the Attorney General or the State's Attorney of the county in which the alleged violation occurred (now, the party complained against provides the proposed CCA). Authorizes the Agency's proposed CCA to include a proposed administrative penalty of not more than $10,000. Requires the person complained against to accept or reject the proposed CCA within 30 days after receiving it. Provides that if the person complained against fails to respond to the proposed CCA within that time frame, then the proposed CCA is deemed rejected by operation of law. Authorizes written amendments to CCAs. Prohibits violations of CCAs. Grants the Agency certain rulemaking authority. Makes technical changes. Effective immediately.
