Amends the Illinois Waterway Ports Commission Act. Provides that each chairperson of the Seneca Regional Port District, the Ottawa Port District, the Illinois Valley Regional Port District, the Heart of Illinois Regional Port District, and the Havana Port District shall appoint a member to the Illinois Waterway Ports Commission (rather than a board member from each of those districts shall be appointed by the chairperson of those district boards to the Commission). Provides that one of the Commission's duties is to coordinate and synchronize common efforts and initiatives within the areas over which it has jurisdiction under this Act (removing language providing that this duty is in order to enhance the reporting and benefits of statistical data). Allows the Commission to acquire, purchase, install, lease, construct, own, hold, maintain, equip, use, control, or operate specified port-related facilities required or incidental to the construction, outfitting, dry docking, or repair of ships or vessels, or water, air, or rail terminals, or roadways or approaches to the facilities or other necessary port-related structures or facilities. Prohibits the Commission from exercising control over the operation of port districts established by any other law of the State, except by voluntary agreement between the port district and the Commission. Allows the Commission to enhance the reporting and benefits of statistical data as it relates to its duties or powers. Effective immediately.
