Illinois HB5600 establishes a program to reduce air pollution from warehouses.
HB5600, the Warehouse Pollution Reduction Act, mandates the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency to create a program for qualifying warehouses. This includes facilities like fulfillment centers and parcel hubs. The program sets annual emissions-reduction targets and assigns points for air-pollution mitigation measures. Warehouses must report data on truck trips, vehicle emissions, and other metrics. The bill also requires construction permits for new or modified warehouses, with conditions like zero-emission readiness and buffer zones near sensitive receptors.
