Illinois Senate passes leaf burning compromise bill
The Illinois Senate approved with a 42 to 0 vote a compromise leaf burning measure supported by the EPA. Sponsored by Rep. Pete Pappas the bill would end a statewide ban but let the Pollution Control Board impose local bans where air pollution is a problem. The measure aims to repeal the broad ban while keeping targeted restrictions in areas failing air quality standards.
