Except in counties with a population in excess of 1,500,000 residents, a facility that has received a beneficial use determination from the Agency under Section 22.54 of this Act shall not be subject to annual fees assessed by a unit of local government and that are directly related to the facility's recycling activities in excess of $1,500. A home rule unit may not regulate these fees in a manner that is inconsistent with this Section. This Section is a limitation under subsection (i) of Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution on the concurrent exercise by home rule units of powers and functions exercised by the State.
