                            STATE OF ILLINOIS
                         OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
                           SPRINGFIELD, 62706

      GEORGE H. RYAN
      GOVERNOR
                              July 24, 2001

      To the Honorable Members of the
          Illinois House of Representatives
          92nd General Assembly
          Pursuant to Article IV,  Section  9(b)  of  the  Illinois
      Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto and return House Bill 442
      entitled "AN ACT concerning sanitary districts."
          House  Bill 442 amends the Metropolitan Water Reclamation
      District Act. It provides  that  the  District  must  levy  a
      direct   annual   tax   to  pay  the  principal  interest  on
      indebtedness within 30 years after contracting the debt  (now
      at least within 20 years after contracting the debt).
          I  fully  support  the  provisions  in  House  Bill  442;
      however,  I  have already signed into law Senate Bill 93 that
      contains identical provisions.
          For these reasons, I hereby veto and  return  House  Bill
      442.
                                             Sincerely,
                                             s/GEORGE H. RYAN
                                             Governor
