Waldo Water & Sewer utility board reports effluent within limits; DNR reviews phosphorus plan, board approves $12,238 in vouchers
Summary
The Waldo Water & Sewer Utility Board received an operations report stating effluent parameters, including phosphorus, met permit limits and that the DNR reviewed and agreed with the submitted WPDES phosphorus action plan. The board approved minutes, vouchers totaling $12,238.02 and the treasurer's report and adjourned.
The Waldo Water & Sewer Utility Board met Sept. 8, 2025, and was told that all effluent parameters met permit limits and that phosphorus levels remain under the effluent limits, Clerk/Treasurer Lisa Gillette reported.
Gillette said the village submitted its annual Operational Evaluation Report for phosphorus as required by the WPDES permit; the Department of Natural Resources reviewed the report and "agrees with the plan of action," according to the minutes. The report and DNR review were recorded as correspondence in the meeting record.
Board members also heard infrastructure updates: a Highway 57 manhole repair was discussed, Great Lakes is scheduled to be in Waldo in mid-September and will clean the wet well during that visit, the pressure tank installation is complete, and a new pump assembly has been ordered for the ISCO 5800 sampler.
On routine business the board approved several motions. Trustee Mike Hintz moved to approve the minutes from the Aug. 11, 2025 meeting; Trustee Jerome Hammarlund seconded and the motion carried. Trustee Dennis Reinemann moved to approve vouchers 9401-9409 in the amount of $12,238.02; Trustee Hammarlund seconded and the motion carried. Reinemann then moved to approve the August Treasurer's report as presented; President Travis Thomas seconded and the motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 8:15 p.m. after a motion from Reinemann, seconded by Hammarlund.
Items listed for the next meeting include discussion of what assistance Trustee Mike Hintz may need and follow-up on a Greasezilla lateral clean with Chissys.
