conjunction with another disposition. The court shall monitor compliance with
any remedial education or treatment recommendations contained in the
professional evaluation. Programs conducting alcohol or other drug evaluation

$1,000. In the event that more than one agency is responsible
for the arrest, the amount payable to law enforcement agencies shall be shared equally. Any moneys received

enforcement agency under this subsection (j) shall be used for enforcement and prevention of driving while under the influence of alcohol, other drug or drugs, intoxicating compound or compounds or any combination thereof, as defined by this Section, including but not limited to the purchase of law

(l) Whenever an individual is sentenced for an offense based upon an
arrest for a violation of subsection (a) or a similar provision of a local
ordinance, and the professional evaluation recommends remedial or
rehabilitative treatment or education, neither the treatment nor the education
shall be the sole disposition and either or both may be imposed only in
conjunction with another disposition. The court shall monitor compliance with
any remedial education or treatment recommendations contained in the
professional evaluation. Programs conducting alcohol or other drug evaluation
or remedial education must be licensed by the Department of Human Services. If
the individual is not a resident of Illinois, however, the court may accept an
alcohol or other drug evaluation or remedial education program in the
individual's state of residence. Programs providing treatment must be licensed

public agency for each emergency response. As used in this subsection (m),
"emergency response" means any incident requiring a response by a police
officer, a firefighter carried on the rolls of a regularly constituted fire
department, or an ambulance.
