Summary
Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes. Makes the following changes in the provisions regarding the Partners for Conservation Fund and the Partners for Conservation Projects Fund in the State Finance Act: provides that the Funds may be used to support (rather than implement) the State's Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy; removes new purposes that the Funds may be used for relating to the Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy, grants to support soil and water conservation districts, and development of a Healthy Soils and Watersheds AmeriCorps program; provides that the use of moneys of the Funds for implementation of a crop insurance premium discount program must be used for a State-level implementation; removes added amounts that would have been transferred from the General Revenue Fund to the Partners for Conservation Fund; and removes provisions allowing the Fund to receive grants, gifts, and awards from any public or private entity for the purpose of expanding financial and technical assistance in order to advance nutrient loss reduction efforts within priority watersheds. Makes the following changes in the provisions amending the Soil and Water Conservation Districts Act: changes the Initiative to the Illinois Healthy Soils Initiative (rather than the Illinois Healthy Soils and Watersheds Initiative); removes references to watersheds and nutrient loss reduction from the Initiative; provides that the Department of Agriculture shall report on progress of the Initiative annually (rather than as a component of biennial reporting for the Illinois Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy); changes a goals and needs assessment to a soil health assessment; makes changes to the goals and needs for soil health assessments that the Department shall consider in the Initiative; removes provisions providing that the Initiative should seek to leverage funding and resources from local, State, federal, and private entities and that the Initiative may be coordinated with research and pilot projects directed by the Nutrient Research and Education Council; and makes conforming and other changes. Amends the Grant Accountability and Transparency Act. Provides that the Act does not apply to the Department of Agriculture's Soil and Water Conservation District Grants Program. Effective immediately.
