RECOMMENDATION
Now Comes the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“Illinois EPA”), by Vera Herst, one of its
attorneys, and pursuant to Section 125.204 of the Illinois Pollution Control Board’s (Board) regulations files the
following Recomnendation regarding the tax certification of water pollution control facilities pursuant to 35 III.
Adm. Code 125.204.
1.
On February 25, 2003, the Illinois EPA received a request from Chris and GregNiebrugge for an Illinois
EPA recommendation regarding the tax certification of water pollution control facilities, pursuant to 35111.
Adm. Code 125.204, and noted the request as log number TC-03-03. (Exhibit A)
2.
The applicant’s address is:
Chris and Greg Niebrugge
6923 E. 600 Avenue
Dieterich, IL 62424
3.
The proposed water pollution control facilities in this request are located at: Section 23, T6N, R13W of the
2n~
P.M. in Crawford County, at the above street address and consist of the following:
Livestock waste management facilities consisting of one concrete manure pit (66 ft. x 114 ft. x 8
ft. deep) with three 66 ft. x 8
ft.
deep concrete walls inside the pit, the slotted concrete portion of
the floor over the manure pit, and four pump out areas (4 ft. x 4 ft. x 8
ft.
deep) located in each of
the two swine isolation buildings.
(These facilities are further described in Exhibit A.)
4.
Section 11-10 of the Properly Tax Code, 35 ILCS 200/11-10(2002), defines “pollution control facilities”
as: “any system, method, construction, device or appliance appurtenant thereto or any portion ofany
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 ifreleased 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 (2002).
THIS FILING IS SUBMITTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
6.
Based on the information in the application and the purpose of the facilities, which is to collect, transport
and/or store livestock wastes prior to cropland application., it is the Illinois EPA’s engineering judgment
that the described facilities may be considered “pollution control facilities,” pursuant to 35 111. Adm. Code
125.200(a), with the primary purpose of eliminating, preventing, or reducing water pollution, or as
otherwise provided in 35111. Adm. Code 125.200. Therefore, the facilities are eligible for tax certification
from the Board.
7.
Therefore, the Illinois EPA recommends that the Board issue the requested tax certification.
