This certification must be on an Illinois EPA form and have the P.E.'s original signature and seal affixed. For costs incurred between September 1992 and September 1993, proof of payment of the deductible amount only is required. For costs incurred after September 1993, the Illinois EPA will deduct the amount of the deductible from the first payment. Proof of payment of the deductible amount is suggested, but not required.
Proof of payment is defined as the fronts and backs of canceled checks.
Landfill tickets or invoices should be included to document the amount of contaminated soils removed and accepted at the landfill, if applicable. The reimbursement billing package must contain a completed Federal Employers Identification Number form with the first submittal. If you or your consultant or contractor qualify as a Women's or a Minority Business Enterprise, please complete the WE or MBE form.
