On December 23, 2003, the Illinois EPA received a request from Mussman’s Back Acres,
Inc. for an Illinois EPA recommendation regarding the tax certification ofwater pollution
control facilities pursuant to

The water pollution control facilities in this request are located in the northwest quarter of
Section 14, Township 32 North, Range 14 East ofthe 3~Principal Meridian in Kankakee
County, Illinois at the above physical address and consist ofthe following:
Livestock waste management facilities consisting ofone concrete manure containment
structure (460 ft. x

ft. x 4 ft. deep) located in one poultry building.
THIS FILING IS SUBMITFED ON RECYCLED PAPER
4)
These livestock waste management facilities are used to collect, transport, and/or store
livestock wastes prior to cropland application.
5)
Section 11-10 ofthe Property Tax Code, 35 ILCS 200/11-10 (2000), 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 ofany
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.”
6)
Pollution control facilities are entitled to preferential tax treatment, 35 ILCS 200/11-5
(2000).
7)
Based on the information in the application and the purpose ofthe facilities (collecting,
transporting and/or storing 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 Ill. Adm. Code
125.200(a),
with the primary purpose of
eliminating, preventing, or reducing waterpollution, or as otherwise provided in 35 Iii.
Adm. Code 125.200. Therefore, the facilities are eligible for tax certification from the
Board.

Therefore, the Illinois EPA recommends that the Board issue the requested tax
certification.
