Livestock waste management facilities consisting ofone concrete manure pit (101

ft;-x

191

ft. x

8 ft. deep) with six concrete pump out pits (4 ft. x

ft. x

8 ft. deep)

with the slotted concrete portion ofthe floor over the manure pit located in one

swine confinement building.

These livestock waste management facilities are used to collect, transport, and/or store

livestock wastes prior to cropland application.

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, 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

(2004).

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 engineeringjudgment that the described facilities may be considered “pollution

control facilities,” pursuant to 35 Ill.

Adm. Code

125.200(a), with the primarypurpose of

eliminating, preventing, orreducing water pollution, or as otherwise provided in 35 Ill.

Adm. Code

125.200.

Therefore, the facilities are eligible for tax certification from the

Board.

EPA recommends that the Board issue therequested tax
