(2) Type B: These animal waste management systems are used to treat waste generated by ruminants and other animals that produce a high fiber waste. They include any or all of the following structures and nonstructural components that provide for the collection, treatment, storage, and land application of animal waste and rely on soil and plant systems for the treatment of animal waste:
(A) dry stacks;
(B) solids and slurry collection equipment;
(C) storage ponds for the collection of solids and runoff;
(D) pumps, pipes, and associated appurtenances that convey the waste from point of generation to final treatment and disposal site;
(E) application equipment;
(F) land application site and crops; and
