The Illinois

Environmental Protection Agency (“Illinois EPA”) hereby files its

Recommendation pursuant to Section 125.204 ofthe regulations ofthe Illinois Pollution

Control Board,

Ill. Adm.

Code 125.204.

On September 16, 2002, the Illinois EPA received a request from For C Pork

Farm (log number TC-06-02, Exhibit A) for an Illinois EPA recommendation

regarding the tax certification ofwater pollution control facilities pursuant to

Ill. Adm. Code 125.204.

The applicant’s address is:

For C Pork Farm

2064 E. State Route 9

Paxton, Illinois 60957-4105

The proposed water pollution control facilities in this request are located NW

ofSection

35,

T24N, R1OE ofthe 3~P.M. in Iroquois County, at the above street

address and consist ofthe following:

Livestock waste management facilities consisting ofone concrete manure

pit (16 ft. x 104 ft. x 4 ft. deep) with a manure drain pull plug and the

slotted portion ofthe flooring over the manure pit in one swine finishing

building; two concrete manure pits (each 8 ft. x 120 ft. x 4 ft. deep) with a

manure drain pull plug and the slotted portion ofthe flooring over the

manure pit in each ofthe two swine finishing buildings; one glass-lined

steel manure storage tank

(59

feet in diameter x 19 feet in height) having a

concrete floor and footing; one concrete lift tank (10 ft. x 10 ft. x 8 ft.

deep); one clay-lined earthen storage basin (300 ft. x 230 ft. x

deep); approximately 190 feet of12-inch diameter PVC manure transfer

THIS F1L1T~GSUBMITTED ON RECYCLED PAPER

pipe; and approximately 50 feet of 4-6-inch diameter PVC manure transfer

pipe.

These livestock waste management facilities are used to collect, transport, andlor

store livestock wastes prior to cropland application, and are further described in

Exhibit A.

Section 11-10 ofthe Property 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 of any building or equipment, that is designed,

constructed, installed or operated for the primary purpose of: (a)

eliminating, preventing, or reducing air or waterpollution

. . .

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.”

Pollution control facilities are entitled to preferential tax treatment, 35 ILCS

200/11-5

Based on the information in the application and the purpose ofthe 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 ofeliminating, preventing, or reducing

waterpollution, or as otherwise provided in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 125.200, and are

eligible for tax certification from the Board.

WHEREFORE, the Illinois EPA recommends that the Board issue the
