On January 5, 2023, the Board issued a final order adopting rules that address licensing drycleaning facilities, overseeing their environmental insurance coverage, and administering State fund reimbursement for the costs of cleaning up drycleaning solvent releases. This rulemaking was initiated by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) to address amendments to the Drycleaner Environmental Response Trust (DERT) Fund Act. These statutory amendments transferred oversight and implementation of the DERT Fund from the DERT Fund Council to IEPA.
