Illinois SB3953 requires a surety bond for commercial solar energy facilities to cover deconstruction and environmental damage.
Illinois SB3953 amends the Counties Code to mandate that county boards cannot permit the construction of commercial solar energy facilities without a surety bond. This bond, purchased from the Environmental Protection Agency or the county, must cover the costs of deconstructing the facility and any environmental damage caused by its construction and operation. The amount of the bond is determined on a case-by-case basis, considering the size of the facility.
