1  AN ACT concerning revenue.
2  Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3  represented in the General Assembly:
4  Section 5. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by
5  adding Section 246 as follows:
6  (35 ILCS 5/246 new)
7  Sec. 246. Solid waste recycling credit.
8  (a) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,

10  the taxes imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 in
11  an amount equal to 100% of the eligible recycling costs
12  incurred by the taxpayer during the taxable year, not to
13  exceed $1,000 per taxpayer.
14  (b) In no event shall a credit under this Section reduce
15  the taxpayer's liability to less than zero. If the amount of
16  the credit exceeds the tax liability for the year, the excess
17  may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the
18  5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The tax
19  credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which there is
20  a tax liability. If there are credits for more than one year
21  that are available to offset a liability, the earlier credit
22  shall be applied first.
23  (c) As used in this Section:
