Manure from typical livestock operations where considerable bedding is added can be piled up with a mechanical stacker. With this "solid" manure, a low concrete curb around a storage slab plus a connected holding pond for polluted runoff can control pollution of nearby streams and water supplies. This plan shows a rectangular slab for swinging manure stackers, or a square slab for fixed stackers. The manure will form into a roughly conical pile: with the fixed stacker the round base of the cone fits best into a square slab; with the swinging stacker the pile will be elongated to better fit a rectangular slab.
