AI Summary

This bill transfers administration and enforcement of the Illinois Hazardous Materials Transportation Act and the Illinois Motor Carrier Safety Law from the Department of Transportation to the Illinois State Police, effective July 1, 2025. The bill requires the Illinois State Police to submit an annual report to the Governor and General Assembly detailing their efforts to fill technical manager positions, including the total number of positions, vacancies, duration of unfilled positions, and recruitment initiatives. The bill also updates various sections of state law to reflect this transfer, including changes to the State Finance Act, the Liquefied Petroleum Gas Regulation Act, and the Illinois Vehicle Code.
