Dundee trustees briefed on WWTP startup issues and regulatory requirements

Dundee Village Board

Summary

Trustees were told a Septic Receiving system has been installed and the wastewater plant had start-up hiccups; the board reviewed several regulatory compliance items the village must meet for the WWTP.

Trustees were briefed that a Septic Receiving system has been installed at the wastewater treatment plant and that the facility experienced start-up issues involving multiple contractors during commissioning.

Meeting minutes record a list of regulatory and operational requirements the village must meet, stating: "The Village must have a notifier registered to report a discharge of raw sewage to any body of water; A 3A wastewater treatment Operator for a minimum of 10 hours; Sampling Plan; Wet Weather Operating Plan; Emergency Power Failure Plan; Mercury Minimization Plan; Updated Process Flow Diagram; Sewer Use Ordinance and Proof of Enactment." The board did not adopt new regulations at the meeting but was informed of the compliance items and next steps for documentation and staffing.

Trustees did not vote on the WWTP item at this session but discussed the need for staffing and formal plans to satisfy permit conditions and reporting obligations. The minutes indicate further action and paperwork will be required before full plant operations proceed.
