RECOMMENDATION

Now Comes the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“Illinois EPA”) by James Allen

Day, one of its attorneys, and pursuant to Section 125.204 ofthe Illinois Pollution Control

Board’s (Board) regulations files the following Recommendation regarding the tax certification

ofwater pollution control facilities pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 125.204.

1)

On December 22, 2003, the Illinois EPA received a request from Geneseo Pork, Inc. for

an Illinois EPA recommendation regarding the tax certification ofwater pollution control

facilities pursuant to

35

Ill. Adm. Code 125.204, and noted the request as log number TC-

3 1-03. (Exhibit A)

2)

The applicant’s mailing address is: Geneseo Pork, Inc.

23589 E. 2200 St.

Geneseo, IlL 61254

3)

The waterpollution control facilities in this request are located in Section 3, Township 17

North, Range 4 East ofthe 4th Principal Meridian in Henry County, Illinois at the above

address and consist ofthe following:

Livestock waste management facilities consisting ofone glass lined steel storage

tank with a concrete floor for manure storage (145 ft. in diameter x 23 ft. deep); 2

concrete lift stations (6 ft. in diameter x 12 ft. deep) with 1 20-horsepower manure

THIS FILING IS SUBMITTED ON RECYCLED PAPER

---

transfer pump at each station; approximately 600 feet of 6 inch diameter PVC

manure transfer pipe; and approximately 280 feet of 12 inch diameter PVC

manure transfer pipe.

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 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, modifijing 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 water pollution, or as otherwise provided in 35 Ill.

Adm. Code 125.200. Therefore, the facilities are eligible for tax certification from the

Board.

8)

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

Before construction of the slurrystore all manure from the buildings was collected

in two primary lagoons or holding basins which were completely emptied at least

two times a year. During the early spring, excess liquid from these holding

basins was sometimes pumped over into a 16-acre secondary lagoon. With the

slurrystore, manure will be gravity drained from the buildings into one of two

collection pits and then will be pumped to the slurrytstore. Manure will be held in

the

slurrystore until it is hauled and spread on surrounding cropland in the spring

and fall.

One of the advantages ofthis new system is that it reduces the risk of ground

water contamination by eliminating two holding basins. We have also increased

the storage capacity thus eliminating the need to put any effluent in the large

lagoon and enabling us to land apply all manure produced on the farm. The

slurrystore

agitation system will do a much better job than our old lagoon agitator

and this will allow us to apply a product with a more uniform analysis

making

it

easier to match agronomic needs of the crop. We will continue to maintain the

large lagoon and this will provide us a backup in case of an emergency. The

surface area of the slurrystore will be much less than the surface area of the two

holding basins and this should cut down on odor.

Before construction of the slurrystore all manure from the buildings was collected

in two primary lagoons or holding basins which were completely emptied at least

two times a year. During the early spring, excess liquid from these holding

basins was sometimes pumped over into a 16-acre secondary lagoon. With the

slurrystore, manure will be gravity drained from the buildings into one of two

collection pits and then will be pumped to the slurrytstore. Manure will be held in

the slurrystore until it is hauled and spread on surrounding cropland in the spring

and fall:

One of the advantages of this new system is that it reduces the risk of ground

water contamination by eliminating two holding basins. We have also increased

the storage capacity thus eliminating the need to put any effluent in the large

lagoon and enabling us to land apply all manure produced on the farm. The

slurrystore agitation system will do a much better job than our old lagoon agitator

and this will allow us to apply a product with a more uniform analysis making it

easier to match agronomic needs ofthe crop. We will continue to maintain the

large lagoon and this will provide us a backup in case of an emergency. The

surface area of the slurrystore will be much less than the surface area of the two

holding basins and this should cut down on odor.

Tax

Certification

Program for

-

Livestock Waste Management Facilities

As an incentive for livestock producers to construct waste storage structures and other structures which prevent

water pollution the Agency administers a tax certification program, which reduces the

property

tax value for many

pollution control improvements. In order to recognize this tax reduction, the producer must have the improvement

certified by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) as a pollution control facility.

Various facilities have been determined to meet the definition of a pollution control facility for livestock waste

management. The following are examples of pollution control facilities for livestock waste management.

1. Manure pits under confined animal feed structures.

2. Slatted floors over manure pits.

3. Floors (not in feeding areas) specifically designed to

collect and transport livestock wastes to liquid

waste storage facilities.

4. Liquid livestock waste storage facilities including, but not limited to: tanks, lagoons, and holding ponds.

5.

Dry manure stacking structures.

6. Feedlot~runoff sediment capture basins.

7. Vegetative flIter systems including, but not necessarily limited to those components designed,

constructed and operated pursuant to Title 35 Illinois Administrative Code, Subtitle E, Chapter 11,

Part

570 titled Design and Maintenance Criteria Regarding Runoff Field Application Systems adopted Augtlst

3, 1982.

-

8. Structures or other devices

used specifically to divert uncontaminated runoff and roof drainage away

from animal feeding facilities so at; to minimize the production of feedlot runoff.

9. Roof structures specifically intended to prevent precipitation from entering livestock waste storage

facilities provided that such a roof shall meet the requirement that animal feeding operations are not and

also could not be normally conducted below said roof.

10. Building or structure walls specifically intended to support those roof structures described in item #9

above.

11.

Tanks or other similar structures, such as methane digesters, that are specifically designed, constructed

and operated for the only purpose of reducing odors from livestock wastes provided that such facilities

shall meet the requirement tiat methane or products other than processed animal manures are not

produced or collected for utilization in any purpose other than the normal operation of the facility.

12. Specific appurtenances to those facilities listed above such as pumps, pump pits, manure scrapers,

ramps, manure stackers, or other devices provided that such appurtenances are designed, constructed

and operated for the primary purpose of the normal operation of the pollution control facility.

13. Other facilities that meet the defintion of a pollution control facility.

Once Illinois -EPA has certified that the improvements made by the producer qualify as a pollution control facility,

the Agency submits

a copy of the certification to the producer and the Illinois Department of Revenue (IDOR).

The IDOR assumes authority

from the county tax assessment office to assess the value of the certified facilities

based

upon

remaining

useful

lifetime

and

the

salvage

value

(usually

property

taxes

are based upon fair cash value). This reduces the assessed value of the certified facilities and, therefore, the

property tax.

-

The date upon which the Illinois EPA received an application form from a producer determines the first

assessment year that the IDOR assumes assessment jurisdiction from the county.

-

Pollution contro~faciiities certified by the Illinois EPA will

be

assessed by the IDOR as of January 1 of the year

after Illinois EPA’s receipt of the tax certification application. For instance, if an application is received by the

Illinois EPA on January

1, 1999, or December 31, 1999, both would come under the IDOR’s ~sessment

jurisdiction as of Januarj 1, 2000.

---

The producer will receive the benefit of the reduced assessment for the first year the IDOR assumes jurisdiction,

but it will not be reflected in the producers tax bill until the following year. All tax bills in Illinois are actually

issued the year foHowing the assessment date. For example, a tax bill will not be issued until approximately

May 2001 for all property assessed as of January 1, 2000.

INSTRUCTIONS

Although the tax certification application form was originally designed for industrial use, the Agency uses

it for all

pollution control facilities. The following instructions indicate how to complete the application form when tax

certification is being sought for livestock waste management facilities.

Section A

- Aqolicant:

Be sure to provide the property tax identification number for the parcel of land where pollution control facilities

are located. Also indicate the location of the pollution control facilities by quarter section, township, range and

county. This information is available on county plat maps.

-

Section B

—

Manufacturing Operations:

-

-

Indicate what type of livestock waste the pollution control facilities control. Most livestock facilities in Illinois do

not have or need any permits from the Illinois EPA and, therefore, the permits space can usually be left blank.

Section C

—

Manufacturing Process

This section does rot need to be completed on applications for livestock waste management facilities.

Section D —

Pollution Control Facility:

The following information must be provided. Use additional paper v/hen necessary.

Neatly sketch a diagram showing the flow of livestock waste from the animals through the pollution control

facilities to final disposal

on cropland. Include the locations of components such as pumps, pipes, gutter

scrapers, manure pits, tanks, slotted floors, holding ponds for runoff, lagoons, methane digesters, settling

basins, vegetative

filters,

etc.

Briefly describe che major pollution control components on the flow diagram including dimensions (length, width,

depth, diameter). cDnstruction materials (steel, concrete block, etc.), and size (i.e., 10 H-P centrifugal-pump).

Identify local st~eams,lakes, groundwater, or other waters that the pollution control facilities protect from

contamination by lye-stock wastes. Briefly explain how the pollution control facilities prevent livestock wastes

from entering these waters.

-

Section E

—

Pollution

Control Facilit~Contaminantsand Accounting Data:

-

Generally

identif, the pollutants being controlled (i.e., beef feedlot -runoff, swine manure, silage leachate, etc.)

and points of ~ischa~geif there are any. Items 3, 4 and

5 must be completed.

Be sure to sign in Section F.

Before construction

of

the slurrystore all manure from the buildings was collected

in two primary lagoons or holding basins which were completely emptied at least

two times a year. During the early spring, excess liquid from these holding

basins was sometimes pumped over into a 16-acre secondary lagoon. With the

slurrystore, manure wilt be gravity drained from the buildings into one of two

collection pits and then Wilt be pumped to the slurrytstore. Manure will be held in

the slurrystore until it is hauled and spread on surrounding cropland in the spring

andfall.

-

-

One ofthe advantages of this new system is that it reduces the risk of ground

water contamination by eliminating two holding basins. We have also increased

the storage capacity thus eliminating the need to put any effluent in the large

lagoon and enabling us to land apply all manure produced on the farm. The

slurrystore agitation system will do a much better job than our old lagoon agitator

and this will allow us to apply a product with a more uniform analysis making it

easier to match agronomic needs ofthe crop. We will continue to maintain the

large lagoon and this will provide us a backup in case ofan emergency. The

surface area ofthe slurrystore Will be much less than the surface area ofthe two

holding basins and this should cut down on odor.
