The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Illinois EPA") hereby files its

Control Board, 35 Ill. Adm. Code 125.204.
1.
On December 20, the Illinois EPA received a request from Kuntz Farms (log

125.204.
2.
The applicant's address is:

30001 N. 2080 E. Rd.
Gridley, Illinois 61744
3.
The proposed water pollution control facilities in this request are located at the
above street address and consist of the following:
NW 1/4 of Section 15, T26N, R3E of the 3rd PM in McLean County
(Property number 02-15-100-006):

SW 1/4 of Section 10, T26N, R3E of the 3rd PM in McLean County
(Property number 02-10-300-009):
Livestock waste management facilities consisting of two
concrete pits (each 40 ft. x 208 ft. x 8 ft. deep) with four
concrete pump out pits (each 6 ft. x 6 ft. x 8 ft. deep) and the
portion of the concrete slotted flooring over the manure pits in
two swine buildings.
SE 1/4 of Section 17, T26N, R3E of the 3rd PM in McLean County
(Property number 02-17-400-006):

concrete pits (each 40 ft. x 110 ft. x 8 ft. deep) with two concrete
pump out pits (each 6 ft. x 6 ft. x 8 ft. deep) and the portion of
the concrete slotted flooring over the manure pits in two swine
buildings; and one concrete pit (32 ft. x 70 ft. x 8 ft. deep) with
three concrete pump out ports (each 10 inches in diameter) and
the portion of the concrete slotted flooring over the manure pit in
one swine building
SW 1/4 of Section 24, T26N, R2E of the 3rd PM in Mclean County

Exhibit A.
4.
Section 11-10 of the Property Tax Code, 35 ILCS 200/11-10 (2006), 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 of any potential solid, liquid
or gaseous pollutant which if released without treatment, pretreatment
THIS FILING SUBMITTED ON RECYCLED PAPER

 
modification or disposal might be harmful, detrimental or offensive to
human, plant or animal life, or to property."
5.
Pollution control facilities are entitled to preferential tax treatment, 35 ILCS
200/11-5.
6.
Based on the information in the application and the purpose of the 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 of eliminating, preventing, or reducing
water pollution, or as otherwise provided in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 125.200, and are

the concrete slotted flooring over the manure pits in two swine buildings; and one concrete pit

plastic slotted flooring over the manure pit in one swine building. These livestock waste
management facilities are used to collect, transport, and/or store livestock wastes prior to

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 above
proposed facilities may be considered "Pollution Control Facilities" under 35 IAC 125.200(a), with the
primary purpose of eliminating, preventing, or reducing water pollution, or as otherwise provided in this
section, and therefore eligible for tax certification from the Illinois Pollution Control Board. The Bureau
of Water therefore recommends that the Board issue the requested tax certification for these facilities.
