Re:

Recommendation of Tax Certification

Log # TC-01-06-25

Dear

Ms.

Gunn:

This Agency received a request on June 25, 2001 from Prairie

Material

Sales for an

Illinois EPA

recommendation regarding the tax certification of air pollution control facilities pursuant to 35

Il.

Adm. Code 125.204.

We offer the following

recommendation.

The air pollution control facilities in this request include the following:

Baghouse whose primary purpose

is to

remove

dust particles from a dust laden air

stream to

prevent release of particulate emissions.

Collection

efficiency is

rated at

99.95.

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

proposed facilities may be considered

“Pollution Control

Facilities” under 35

IAC

125.200(a),

with the primary purpose of eliminating, preventing, or reducing air pollution, or as otherwise

provided

in this section, and therefore eligible for tax certification from the Illinois Pollution

Control Board.

The Illinois EPA therefore recommends that the Board issue the requested tax

certification for these facilities.

Sincerely,

Donald

Sutton, P.E.
