The IPRB was formed in 1998 to provide public awareness and education programs designed to improve the public’s understanding of the Illinois oil production industry, and to clean up/restore abandoned oilfield sites throughout the state. Funding for IPRB programs comes from voluntary contributions of oil and natural gas producers and royalty owners in Illinois.
