To further Illinois along the path of 100% clean energy, there is hereby created a Mechanical Insulation Assessment Pilot Program. In furtherance of the goals of the pilot program, the Agency shall contract with a qualified mechanical insulation contractor to execute a mechanical insulation energy and safety assessment for 50 State-owned buildings. The Agency shall contract with other entities as deemed necessary to aid in determining the cost and scope of each remediation project including any and all necessary ancillary work. To determine the 50 buildings that will participate in the Pilot Program, the Agency shall take into consideration whether remediation work has been completed on the mechanical system recently as well as any immediate plans to update the mechanical systems and whether there are plans for the building's continued future use. The Mechanical Insulation Energy and Safety Assessment Pilot Program findings shall include: (1) any and all remediation measures necessary to bring the subject mechanical insulation system up to Code in accordance with the Energy Efficient Building Act and to ensure the system functions at a specific operating temperature to minimize energy loss; (2) any and all projected energy savings to the State as a result of the completion of any and all recommendation remediation; (3) any public health or safety concerns identified during the assessment; and (4) the projected cost to complete any and all recommended remediations. Further, the Agency shall report to the General Assembly the findings of the completed Mechanical Insulation Energy and Safety Assessment Pilot Program no later than July 1, 2025. The findings of each subject building's mechanical insulation energy and safety assessment shall be a matter of public record and posted on the Agency's website no later than July 1, 2025. This Act is subject to appropriation. All work under this Act shall be performed in accordance with the Prevailing Wage Act.
