On January 11, 2006, the Illinois EPA received a request from Wayne and Susan
Bergbower-Newton (log number TC-03-06, Exhibit A) for an Illinois EPA
recommendation regarding the tax certification of water pollution control
facilities pursuant to 35 III . Adm . Code 125 .204
.
The applicant's address is
:
Wayne and Susan Bergbower
13433 N. 1425th St
.
Newton, Illinois 62448
3 .
The proposed water pollution control facilities in this request are located at SW '/<
of Section 16, T7N, RI OE of the 3 d P.M
. in Jasper County, at the above street address,
and consist of the following :
Livestock waste management facilities consisting of one concrete manure pit
(192 ft. x 50 ft. x 6 ft
. deep) with the slotted concrete portion of the floor over the
manure pit .
THIS FILING SUBMITTED ON RECYCLED PAPER

 
These livestock waste management facilities are used to collect, transport and/or
store livestock wastes prior to cropland application, and are further described in
Exhibit A.
4.
Section 11-10 of the Property Tax Code, 35 ILCS 200/11-10 (2004), defines
"pollution control facilities" as :
"any system, method, construction, device or appliance appurtenant
thereto or any portion of any building or equipment, that is designed,
constructed, installed or operated for the primary purpose of
: (a)
eliminating, preventing, or reducing air or water pollution . . .or (b)
treating, pretreating, modifying or disposing of any potential solid, liquid
or gaseous pollutant which if released without treatment, pretreatment
modification or disposal might be harmful, detrimental or offensive to
human, plant or animal life, or to property
."
5 .
Pollution control facilities are entitled to preferential tax treatment, 35 ILCS
200/11-5 .
6.
Based on the information in the application and the purpose of the facilities, it is
the Illinois EPA's engineering judgment that the described facilities may be
considered "pollution control facilities," pursuant to 35 Ill
. Adm. Code
125
.200(a), with the primary purpose of eliminating, preventing, or reducing
water pollution, or as otherwise provided in 35 111 . Adm
. Code 125 .200, and are
eligible for tax certification from the Board

13433 N. 1425" St.
Newton, IL 62448
S W '/4 of Section 16, T7N, RIDE of the 3rd P.M. in Jasper County
Livestock waste management facilities consisting of one concrete manure pit (192 ft
. x 50 ft. x 6
ft
. deep) with the slotted concrete portion of the floor over the manure pit .
These livestock waste management facilities are used to collect, transport and/or store livestock
wastes prior to cropland application .
These facilities are further described in the enclosed applications and supporting documents
.
Based on the information included in this submittal, it is our engineering judgment that the above
proposed facilities may be considered "Pollution Control Facilities" under 35 IAC 125

primary purpose of eliminating, preventing, or reducing water pollution, or as otherwise provided in this
section, and therefore eligible for tax certification from the Illinois Pollution Control Board . The Bureau
