Sister Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant- 2124 Autumn Court and Video Conference (Unapproved Version) 1. Call Meeting to Order Chairperson Nate Bell called the Sewer and Water Utilities meeting to order on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, at 1:00 PM. 2. Roll Call A roll call was conducted, with the following members present: Chairperson Nate Bell and member Steven Bacsi Staff present: Utilities Director Megan Barnes, Village Administrator Ben Andrews, Treasurer Vlad Gannik and Utilities Clerk Kara Kroll 3. Approval of Agenda The agenda was approved as amended, with the removal of item 6a (Sewer Rate Study RFP). Motion by Bell, second by Bacsi to approve the amended agenda. Motion carried – all ayes. 4. Approval of Minutes of the July 14, 2026 Meeting, As Published Motion by Bell, second by Bacsi to approve the minutes of the July 14, 2026 meeting as presented. Motion carried – all ayes. 5. Comments, Correspondence and Concerns from the Public There were no members of the public present and no correspondence to report. 6. Discussion/Action Items a. Sewer Rate Study RFP This item was removed from the agenda. It was noted for placement on the October meeting agenda. b. Water Rate Study-Simplified Or Conventional Utilities Director Megan Barnes reported that the day following the previous meeting's discussion of a conventional rate case, the Public Service Commission (PSC) issued a notice that the Village qualifies for the Simplified Rate Case (SRC) approach, which would apply a 3% inflationary increase to water rates. Director Barnes recommended the SRC as it requires significantly less staff time and eliminates the need to hire an outside consultant, while still accomplishing the necessary rate adjustment. The last conventional rate case was conducted in 2018. The committee concurred that the simplified 2 Minutes for the Special August 25, 2026 meeting of the Utilities- SWUC Committee- Unapproved Version approach was the appropriate path forward, as rates have not been adjusted since 2018 and the inflationary increase is sufficient to cover rising operational costs. If approved, new rates would take effect approximately January 1, 2027, as the PSC requires 45 or more days after application submission. Motion to recommend to the Village Board to proceed with the Simplified Rate Case for water rates was made by Bell and seconded by Bacsi. The motion carried – all ayes. c. 2027 Water, Wastewater And Collection Budget Review Director Barnes presented a budget review comparing 2025 actuals, mid-year 2026 actuals, and the proposed 2027 budget across the water, wastewater, and collection funds. The water fund projected approximately $35,000 in positive net revenue assuming the 3% rate increase. The wastewater fund projected approximately $160,000 positive. The collection fund budget was noted as skewed due to the inclusion of a $1,000,000–$1,500,000 capital improvement for a potential lift station and sanitary sewer extension on Highway 57, the financing of which remains undetermined pending coordination between the Village and a developer. The committee voted to forward the budget to the Finance Committee. Motion to forward the 2027 budget review to the Finance Committee was made by Bacsi and seconded by Bell. The motion carried – all ayes. d. 2016 Chevrolet Silverado-Surplus Property The 2016 Chevrolet Silverado was previously declared surplus property by the Village Board and directed to this committee for disposition. Director Barnes recommended listing the vehicle on the Wisconsin Surplus auction site with a minimum asking price of approximately $10,000, noting the truck is all-wheel drive and in good working condition. Treasurer Vlad Gannik recommended first consulting Kelley Blue Book to verify the minimum price is appropriate. Director Barnes agreed to check the value before listing. No formal motion was required, as the committee determined this was an oversight matter rather than a policy decision. e. Cybersecurity Discussion There was discussion between the committee members and Director Barnes on cybersecurity. f. Wastewater Treatment Plant Operations Report Director Barnes presented the operational report. Notable highlights included that operators Blok and Oakdale both passed their waterworks operator certifications, making all facility operators dual- certified in both wastewater and water operations. Operator Nelson also received an additional subclass certification for total phosphorus removal. A question was raised regarding the July 2026 BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) influent reading and Director Barnes agreed to revise the capacity report format to present a consolidated Sister Bay capacity ratio and to add effluent data for greater public clarity. 7. Matters to be placed on a future agenda or referred to a committee, official, or employee The following item was identified for future action: x Sewer Rate Study RFP 3 Minutes for the Special August 25, 2026 meeting of the Utilities- SWUC Committee- Unapproved Version 8.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Village of Sister Bay (“Village ”) is soliciting proposals from qualified and licensed consultants to provide sewer rate study services in 2027. Sister Bay is a community of roughly 1,148 people situated on the northwestern shore of the Door Peninsula in Door County, Wisconsin. The Village lies adjacent to the Bay of Green Bay and the Town of Liberty Grove and is located approximately 30 miles north of the City of Sturgeon Bay and 75 miles northeast of the City of Green Bay. The Sister Bay Sewer Utility has approximately 1,526 active service connections. The Utility serves customers located in the Village of Sister Bay, as well as customers in the Liberty Grove Utility District No. 1, including 214 commercial users and no industrial users. Charges for service are user fees (or rates) for the services provided to each customer. The Village bills customers quarterly for services rendered, including a service charge based on the size of the installed water meter and a volumetric rate based on usage. The last sewer rate study was completed in 2024, effective January 1, 2025. OVERVIEW/SOLICITATION: The Village of Sister Bay is seeking proposals from qualified and licensed consultants to prepare our 2026 sewer rate study to be effective January 1, 2027. Quality and accuracy are paramount and are critical to establishing the rates. Acknowledging publication and notification deadlines, time is of the essence. I.

Due to the upgrade, the SBU facility would not be able to accept sludge from any of the northern door communities for the entire year of 2025, due to them only having the capacity to treat their own sludge produced once the upgrade started. NEW Water in Green Bay agreed to accept the sludge produced by Sister Bay for 2025, with the intent that the acceptance would be temporary, not indefinite. In 2024, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources published a Guidance Document for PFAS in Biosolids. The Village proactively sampled the sludge for PFAS in December 2024. In December of 2025, the Village was notified by SBU that as part of the renewal of their Wisconsin Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (WPDES) Permit, the Department would be imposing additional limitations on discharge pollutants governing perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanoic sulfonic acid (PFOS). To meet the WPDES requirements, SBU will be required to monitor and sample all facility contributors. As a significant biosolids contributor to the SBU WWTP, annual monitoring, testing, and reporting of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl compounds (PFAS), including PFOS compounds are required as part of the ongoing acceptance of the Village’s municipal sludge. The Village again proactively sampled the sludge for PFAS in April of 2025. 11 Page 2 In 2026, two sludge samples have been submitted for PFAS analysis. The first sample was required by SBU and the second sample was a new requirement imposed due to the WPDES General Permit being applied to the WWTP. The results of all of the sludge PFAS analysis results are detailed in the table below: Sample Date PFOA (ng/g) PFOS (ng/g) Combined PFOA + PFOS (ng/g) 12/10/2024 22.0 25.9 47.9 04/21/2025 16.2 21.3 37.5 03/09/2026 15.4 21.9 37.3 07/27/2026 16.4 28.5 44.9 Since the results from the sample taken on July 27, 2026, were required as part of the WPDES General Permit, the results were reported to the DNR. Since the combined PFOS and PFOA were above 20 ug/kg, we must retest within 90 days. If the retest is also over the 20 ug/kg threshold, the results will be defined as a Tier 2 exceedance in the 2026 Interim Strategy for Land Application of Biosolids and Industrial Sludges Containing PFAS. Tier 2 Exceedance: PFOA + PFOS above 20 ug/kg (ppb) and at or less than 50 ug/kg (ppb) Steps required if retest comes in as Tier 2 Exceedance: x Notify the property owner/farmer of the results (we do not land apply ourselves so we would currently notify the facility accepting our sludge for further processing of the results.) x Begin to monitor WWTP effluent discharges for PFAS within 30 days. Report the results to the DNR. x Create and implement a PFAS source identification and reduction plan. x If PFOA is greater than 20 ug/kg (ppb), notify the department and reduce application rate by 1.5 dry tons per acre or propose an alternative risk mitigation strategy for approval from the department to land apply. x The department will modify the facilities WPDES permit to incorporate numeric limits or conditions to address PFAS in biosolids.

for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 4 11 Requirements of 2025 Act 201 On April 6, 2026, 2025 Act 201 was enacted creating s. 283.82(4), Wis. Stats., which directed the department to issue a Wisconsin Pollution Discharge Elimination System (WPDES) general permit (GP) requiring perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) monitoring conditions for sewage sludge. This GP applies to all sewage sludge generators with valid WPDES individual permits that do not have limitations or conditions addressing PFAS. In addition, s. 283.82(4)(b), Wis. Stats. requires the department to modify a WPDES individual permit (IP) assigned to a sewage sludge generator if sample results conducted under the GP exceed a 20 μg/kg concentration for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) combined. If the average of at least two sample results exceeds 20 μg/kg concentration for PFOA+PFOS combined, the department shall include limitations and conditions for PFAS in the reissued WPDES IP. The department created WPDES GP (WI-0012345-01-0) to cover sewage sludge generators (generators) which do not have PFAS conditions in the WPDES IP assigned to the generator. A sewage sludge generator is no longer eligible for coverage under this GP upon modification or reissuance of the generator’s WPDES IP assigned to include PFAS monitoring and conditions. 16 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 5 22 Applicability Criteria 2.1 Definitions and Responsibility Section NR 204.03(55), Wis. Adm. Code defines “sewage sludge” or “sludge” or “biosolids” as “the solid, semi-solid or liquid residue generated during the treatment of domestic sewage in a treatment works. Sewage sludge includes scum or solids removed in primary; secondary or advanced wastewater treatment processes and material derived from sewage sludge. Sewage sludge does not include ash generated during the firing of a sewage sludge incinerator or grit and screenings generated during preliminary treatment of domestic sewage in a treatment works.” Section NR 204.03(24), Wis. Adm. Code defines “generator” as “either the person who generates or prepares sludge during the treatment of domestic sewage in a treatment works or the person who derives a material from sludge or the person who changes the sludge characteristics either through treatment, mixing or any other process.” Section NR 204.09(41), Wis. Adm. Code defines “person” as “an individual, owner, operator, association, partnership, corporation, municipality, interstate agency, state agency or federal agency.” Section NR 204.03(19), Wis. Adm. Code defines “exceptional quality sludge” (EQ) as “sludge that meets the class A requirements for pathogens, as specified in s. NR 204.07(6)(a), Wis. Adm. Code, the high-quality pollutant concentrations, as specified in s. NR 204.07(5)(c), Wis. Adm. Code, and one of the pre-land application processes to reduce vector attraction, as specified in s. NR 204.07(7)(a) to (i), Wis. Adm. Code.” Section NR 204.02(2), Wis. Adm. Code explains sewage sludge generators responsibility for land application and disposal of sewage sludge, specifically: “RESPONSIBILITY: A facility that generates sludge is ultimately responsible for the handling, transporting, storage and land application or disposal of the sludge and grit and screenings. A generator is responsible for compliance with its WPDES permit and all applicable provisions of this chapter. In the event a generator sends its sludge to another person for final land application or disposal and that person alters the characteristics of the sludge by mixing it with other wastes or substances or by treating it in some other manner, then the person who receives the sludge shall also be considered a generator and shall assume primary responsibility for compliance with this chapter. If a generator gives the sludge to another person to land apply, but that person does not alter the characteristics of the sludge, then that person is also responsible for complying with applicable provisions in this chapter, such as the land management practices specified in s. NR 204.07, Wis. Adm. Code.” 17 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 6 Section NR 204.05(2)(a), Wis. Adm. Code, specifies WPDES permit requirements when sewage sludge is sent to another facility for treatment or storage, specifically: “If a treatment works sends its sludge to another treatment or storage facility for final treatment prior to land application, and at that facility, the sludge is mixed with other materials such as, but not limited to another municipal sludge, industrial sludge, animal manure or septage, or if the characteristics of the sludge are altered in any other manner, the owner of the receiving facility shall apply for a separate WPDES permit and shall assume primary responsibility for compliance with this chapter.” 22.2 Sewage Sludge Generators Covered This WPDES GP is applicable to any generator of sewage sludge (or “sludge” or “biosolids”) that do not currently have PFAS monitoring conditions in their WPDES IP. This GP applies to the following sewage sludge generators: 1. Sewage sludge generators that produce Exceptional Quality (EQ) sewage sludge and do not currently have PFAS monitoring conditions required in the WPDES IP assigned to the generator. The GP applies to all EQ generators that meet any of the following conditions: a. Sell or give sewage sludge away in a bag; b. Sell or give sewage sludge away in bulk; c. Direct land apply sewage sludge by staff of the generator; d.

NR 204.03(11), Wis. Adm. Code). 5. WPDES IP contract haulers or other persons that store and mix sewage sludges or mix sewage sludges with other materials are considered sludge generators pursuant to s. NR 204.02(2), Wis. Adm. Code. The GP shall be required when these haulers or persons land apply sewage sludge and do not have PFAS sampling required in the person’s WPDES IP. The GP applies to all WPDES IP contract haulers that meet any of the following conditions including but not limited to: a. Mixing sewage sludges together within storage units; b. Mixing sewage sludge with septage wastes (ch. NR 113, Wis. Adm. Code) within storage units; c. Mixing sewage sludge with industrial wastes (ch. NR 214, Wis. Adm. Code) within storage units; d.

Generators shall refer to the sewage sludge Outfalls designated under the WPDES IP. PFAS monitoring data shall be recorded on Characteristic Reports (Form 3400-49) under the Switchboard account of the WPDES IP sewage sludge generator. 3.1 Sewage Sludge Outfalls: General Most sewage sludge WPDES IPs have one or two sewage sludge sample point Outfalls to discharge sludge. Some sewage sludge WPDES IPs have additional Outfalls to accommodate EQ sewage sludge treatment processes along with pre- and post- processes necessary for the EQ sewage sludge treatment process. Typical sewage sludge discharge is from one primary sample point or Outfall. In most cases, the annual PFAS monitoring will be performed at a single Outfall. However, annual PFAS monitoring is required from all sewage sludge Outfalls when sewage sludge is discharged from those Outfalls during the calendar year. Sections 3.2 and 3.3 outline the procedures or situations where PFAS monitoring conditions would apply to sewage sludge Outfalls. 3.2 WPDES IPs with Single Sewage Sludge Outfalls Generators with a single sewage sludge Outfall identified in the WPDES IP shall monitor that sewage sludge Outfall pursuant to Sections 4, 5, and 6 of this WPDES GP. Annual PFAS monitoring is required from a sewage sludge sample point Outfall when sewage sludge is discharged from those Outfalls during the calendar year. 3.3 WPDES IPs with Multiple Sewage Sludge Outfalls Generators may discharge sewage sludge via multiple Outfalls identified in the WPDES IP assigned to the generator. In many cases, all required PFAS monitoring will be performed at a single Outfall only when sewage sludge is discharged from that Outfall. When sewage sludge is discharged from multiple Outfalls in a calendar year, PFAS monitoring is required from each of the Outfalls that discharge occurred. Many WDPES IP have Outfalls where discharges do not routinely occur (example: a lagoon facility may discharge sewage sludge once per 20 years). These infrequently used Outfalls provide flexibility in the WPDES IP for using dormant, inactive or emergency Outfalls. The generator must contact the department to report PFAS monitoring results if there is a discharge from a dormant, inactive, or emergency Outfall. 22 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 11 33.4 WPDES IPs without a Sewage Sludge Outfall In some unique situations, a WPDES IP may not include a sewage sludge discharge Outfall. These unique situations may include, but are not limited to, generators that infrequently discharge (example: once per 20 years) or generators that discharge sludge to another facility for treatment and that treatment facility has a WPDES IP. Generators shall notify the assigned department compliance staff within 90 days if the generator intends to discharge sewage sludge from a location that has not been covered as a sample point (Outfall) under the assigned WPDES IP. The department may provide coverage under this GP or require the modification of the WDPES IP assigned to the generator to include PFAS monitoring conditions. 23 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 12 44 PFAS Monitoring Requirements for Sewage Sludge Generators The following requirements shall apply to all EQ and non-EQ sewage sludge generators covered under this GP except those that apply under Sections 5 and 6. 4.1 Sampling Point(s) Sampling Point Designation Monitoring shall occur at all sewage sludge sample point Outfalls prior to discharge of sewage sludge via land application, distribution to other WPDES permitted facilities, or disposal at licensed incinerator or licensed landfill. The generator shall refer to the WPDES IP for the appropriate Outfall identification number(s) needed to complete the electronic Characteristic Report (Form 3400-49). Note: This section does not apply to WPDES permitted contract haulers, facilities with lagoon treatment processes, and facilities with reedbed treatment processes. 4.1.1 Land Application of Sludge Containing PFAS The sewage sludge generator shall monitor PFAS concentrations in the sewage sludge prior to the sewage sludge being discharged from all Outfalls. The department recommends the land application of sewage sludge be completed in a manner consistent with the most recent version of the “Interim Strategy for Land Application of Biosolids and Industrial Sludges containing PFAS” (https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/sites/default/files/topic/PFAS/PFAS_BiosolidsInterimStrategy.pdf).

All pertinent sludge information, including permit application information and other documents specified in the permit or ch. NR 214, Wis. Adm. Code, shall be retained for a minimum of 5 years. 8.1.7 Other Information When a permittee becomes aware that it failed to submit any relevant facts in a notice of intent or submitted incorrect information in a notice of intent or in any report to the department, it shall promptly submit such facts or correct information to the department. 8.2 General Conditions for General Permits 8.2.1 Signatory Requirement 39 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 28 All permit notices of intent, reports, and other information requested by the department shall be signed by a responsible executive or municipal officer, manager, partner, or proprietor as specified in s. 283.37(3), Wis. Stats., or a duly authorized representative of the officer, manager partner or proprietor that has been delegated signature authority pursuant to s. NR 205.07(1)(g)2, Wis. Adm. Code. 88.2.2 Delegation of Signature Authority The permittee must submit a completed Delegation of Signature Authority (DSA, Form 3400- 220) or equivalent to the department for a duly authorized representative to submit specific permit documents on the behalf of the responsible executive or municipal officer, manager, partner, or proprietor of a permitted discharge. A responsible executive or municipal officer, manager, partner, or proprietor can only delegate signature authority to a duly authorized representative if that person is responsible for the overall operation of the facility or activity regulated by this general permit. The permittee shall specify the name of the individual or the employment position that has the signature authority and responsibility on the DSA. The permittee must submit an updated DSA to the department with the NOI unless a DSA was previously submitted to the department or together with the submittal of any required documents. If there are any changes to this request, the permittee shall submit a new DSA to the department. Note: The DSA (Form 3400-220) is available at Wastewater General Permits (https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/Wastewater/GeneralPermits.html). 8.2.3 Permit Coverage Transfers A permit is not transferable to any person except after notice to the department. Permittees that wish to transfer general permit coverage to a new permittee must submit a Transfer of Coverage (TOC, Form 3400-222) to the department. The TOC must be submitted at least 30 days in advance of the proposed transfer date. All TOCs shall be completed by both the existing and new permittees, including the “Certification & Signature” section, and sent via mail or email to the department. The department will then send a letter to the existing permittee stating that their coverage is terminated under this general permit. If the quality or quantity of the discharge has not changed at the facility, the department will send a letter of determination that grants coverage to the new permittee under this general permit. If there have been significant changes at the permitted facility, the new permittee shall submit a new eNOI to the department. Note: The TOC (Form 3400-222) is available at Wastewater General Permits (https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/Wastewater/GeneralPermits.html). 8.2.4 Permit Coverage Terminations 40 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 29 Permittees that wish to terminate their general permit coverage must submit an electronic Notice of Termination (eNOT) to the department. All eNOTs must be completed by the permittee or duly authorized representative including the “Certification & Signature” section and submitted to the department via the online Water Permit Applications system. The department will then send a termination letter to the permittee stating that their coverage is terminated under this general permit. Note: The eNOT is available at the department’s ePermitting website available via Water Permit Applications (https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/permits/water). 88.2.5 Continuation of an Expired General Permit If a permittee submitted a complete and timely eNOI to be covered by this general permit, all conditions of an expired general permit shall continue to apply until the effective date of a new general permit. 8.2.6 Duty to Comply The permittee shall comply with all conditions of the permit. Any permit noncompliance is a violation of the permit and is grounds for enforcement action, permit coverage termination, or denial of reapplying for permit coverage. If a permittee violates any terms of the permit, the permittee is subject to the penalties established in ch. 283, Wis. Stats. 8.2.7 Property Rights The permit does not convey any property rights of any sort or any exclusive privilege. The permit does not authorize any injury or damage to private property, invasion of personal rights, or any infringement of federal, state or local laws or regulations. 8.2.8 Inspection and Entry The permittee shall allow an authorized representative of the department, upon the presentation of credentials, to: 1. Enter the permittee's premises where a regulated facility or activity is located or conducted, or where records are required under the conditions of the permit; 2. Have access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that are required under the conditions of the permit; 3. Inspect at reasonable times any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and control equipment), practices or operations regulated or required under the permit; and 4. Sample or monitor at reasonable times, for the purposes of assuring permit compliance, any substances or parameters at any location. 8.2.9 Duty to Mitigate 41 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 30 The permittee shall take all reasonable steps to minimize or prevent the likelihood of any adverse impacts to public health, the waters of the state, or the environment resulting from noncompliance with the permit. 88.2.10 Duty to Provide Information The permittee shall furnish the department, within a reasonable time, any information which the department may request to determine whether cause exists for modifying, terminating, suspending, revoking, or reissuing the permit or to determine compliance with the permit. The permittee shall give advance notice to the department of any planned changes in the permitted facility or activity which may result in noncompliance with permit requirements. The permittee shall also furnish the department, upon request, copies of records required to be kept by the permittee. 8.2.11 Need to Halt or Reduce Activity Not a Defense It is not a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action to claim that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity to maintain compliance with the conditions of the permit. 8.3 System Operating Requirements 8.3.1 Proper Operation and Maintenance The permittee shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. Proper operation and maintenance includes effective performance, adequate funding, adequate operator staffing and training as required in ch. NR 114, Wis. Adm. Code, and adequate laboratory and process controls, including appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems only when necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. 8.3.2 Noncompliance and Other Reporting The permittee shall report the following types of noncompliance by a telephone call to the department's regional office within 24 hours after becoming aware of the noncompliance: 1. Any noncompliance which may endanger health or the environment; 2. Any violation of an effluent limitation resulting from a bypass; 3. Any violation of an effluent limitation resulting from an upset; and 4. Any violation of a maximum discharge limitation for any of the pollutants listed by the department in the permit. 42 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 31 A written report describing the noncompliance shall also be submitted to the department as directed in the Summary of Reports Due within 5 days after the permittee becomes aware of the noncompliance. The written report shall contain a description of the noncompliance and its cause; the period of noncompliance, including exact dates and times; the steps taken or planned to reduce, eliminate and prevent reoccurrence of the noncompliance; and if the noncompliance has not been corrected, the length of time it is expected to continue. A scheduled bypass approved by the department as specified in s. NR 205.07(1)(u)2., Wis. Adm. Code, shall not be subject to the reporting required under this section. 88.3.3 Bypass Except for a controlled diversion as specified in s. NR 205.07(1)(v), Wis. Adm. Code, any bypass is prohibited, and the department may take enforcement action against a permittee for such occurrences under s. 283.89, Wis. Stats. The department may approve a bypass if the permittee demonstrates all the following conditions apply: 1. The bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury, or severe property damage. 2. There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities or adequate back-up equipment, retention of untreated wastes, reduction of inflow and infiltration, or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate back-up equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventative maintenance. When evaluating feasibility of alternatives, the department may consider factors such as technical achievability, costs and affordability of implementation, and risks to public health, the environment and, where the permittee is a municipality, the welfare of the community served. 3. The bypass was reported in accordance with the ‘Noncompliance Reporting’ section of this permit. 8.3.4 Removed Substances Solids, sludges, filter backwash or other pollutants removed from or resulting from treatment or control of wastewaters or intake waters shall be stored and disposed of in a manner to prevent any pollutant from the materials from entering the waters of the state. Land disposal or application of treatment plant solids and sludges shall be at a site or operation licensed by the department under chs. NR 500 to 538, Wis. Adm. Code or chs. NR 660 to 670, Wis. Adm. Code or in accordance with ch. NR 204 or 214, Wis. Adm. Code. 43 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 32 88.3.5 Spill Reporting The permittee shall notify the department in accordance with ch. NR 706 (formerly NR 158), Wis. Adm. Code, in the event that a spill or accidental release of any material or substance results in the discharge of pollutants to the waters of the state at a rate or concentration greater than the effluent limitations established in the permit, or the spill or accidental release of the material is unregulated in the permit, unless the spill or release of pollutants has been reported to the department under this section. Note: Section 292.11(2)(a), Wis. Stats., requires any person who possesses or controls a hazardous substance or who causes the discharge of a hazardous substance to notify the department immediately of any discharge not authorized by the permit. The discharge of a hazardous substance that is not authorized by this permit or that violates this permit may be a hazardous substance spill. To report a hazardous substance spill, call DNR's 24-hour HOTLINE at 1-800-943-0003. 8.3.6 Planned Changes In accordance with ss. 283.31(4)(b) and 283.59(1), Wis. Stats., the permittee shall report to the department any facility expansion, production increase or process modifications which will result in new, different, or increased discharges of pollutants. The report shall either be a new general permit notice of intent or, if the new discharge will not violate the effluent limitations of the general permit, a written notice of the new, different or increased discharge. The notice shall contain a description of the new activities, an estimate of the new, different, or increased discharge of pollutants, and a description of the effect of the new or increased discharge on existing waste treatment facilities. Following receipt of this report, the department may modify the general permit coverage letter to specify any discharges of pollutants not previously covered by the general permit. 8.3.7 Duty to Halt or Reduce Activity Upon failure or impairment of treatment facility operation, the permittee shall, to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with its permit, curtail production or wastewater discharges or both until the treatment facility operations are restored or an alternative method of treatment is provided. 8.3.8 Enforcement Any violation of this permit is enforceable under ss. 283.89 and 283.91, Wis. Stats. 8.3.9 Permit as Enforcement Shield Compliance with a permit during its term constitutes compliance for purposes of enforcement with 33 USC 1311, 1312, 1316, 1317, 1328, and 1345 (a) and (b), except for any toxic effluent 44 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 33 standard or prohibition, and standards for sewage sludge use or disposal. If a new or revised toxic effluent standard or toxic prohibition becomes effective during the term of the permit, the permittee may be subject to enforcement action if the discharge exceeds the new or revised effluent standard for the toxic pollutant even though the discharge is in compliance with the existing permit. The permittee may also be subject to enforcement action standards for sewage sludge use or disposal. However, a permit may be modified, revoked and reissued, or terminated during its term for cause as set forth in ch. 283, Wis. Stats., and ch. NR 203, Wis. Adm. Code. 88.3.10 Severability The provisions of this permit are severable, and if any provisions of this permit or the application of any provision of this permit to any circumstance is held invalid, the application of such provision to other circumstances and the remainder of this permit, shall not be affected thereby. 45 WPDES Permit No. WI-0012345-01-0 PFAS Monitoring for Sewage Sludge (Biosolids) Generators 34 99 Summary of Reports Due and Actions FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY Description Date Laboratory Report: Calendar Year 2026 and Subsequent Years 14 days after receiving PFAS laboratory results Characteristic Report (Form 3400-49): Calendar Year 2027 and Subsequent Years. 14 days after receiving PFAS laboratory results Exceedance Notification: Required when PFOA+PFOS exceeds 20 μg/kg 5 days after receiving PFAS laboratory results.

for the WWTP Author(s): Megan Barnes, Utilities Director Action(s) Requested: ܆Ordinance܆Resolution܈Motion ܈Receive/File POLICY ISSUE(S) “Should the Sewer and Water Utility Committee recommend for Village Board approval one of the three sludge processing projects outlined in the Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility, that should be pursued and implemented” BACKGROUND INFORMATION In 2024, the Village received notice from Sturgeon Bay Utilities (SBU) that their WWTP facility would be undergoing a large-scale biosolids treatment train upgrade in 2025. Due to the upgrade, the SBU facility would not be able to accept sludge from any of the northern door communities for the entire year of 2025, due to them only having the capacity to treat their own sludge produced once the upgrade started. NEW Water in Green Bay agreed to accept the sludge produced by Sister Bay for 2025, with the intent that the acceptance would be temporary, not indefinite. The sludge handling and processing issues and discussions have been occurring since 2014 when Robert E. Lee was contracted to perform a Sludge Handling Study. With the SBU facility upgrade and recent biosolids PFAS limitations currently being explored by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, the Village decided to compose and release an RFP to have an engineering firm complete a Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility. In fall of 2025, SBU informed the Village that their upgrade was significantly delayed due to back-ordered equipment necessary for the upgrade. SBU communicated that the northern door communities would again have to secure alternative sludge disposal options for 2026. Acceptance was gained at the NEW Water facility for an additional year of sludge disposal services at that facility. 62 Page 2 PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW January 9, 2025: A Request for Proposals was issued for Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Facilities Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility. February 11, 2025: Sewer and Water Utility Committee reviewed the received RFPs. A recommendation was made to the Village Board that McMahon Associates, Inc., be awarded the contract for the Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Facilities Planning of the Wastewater Treatment Facility. February 18, 2025: Village board approved the contract with McMahon Associates, Inc. to complete the Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Facilities Planning of the Wastewater Treatment Facility of the Wastewater Treatment Plant. September 9, 2025: Sewer and Water Utility Committee received a presentation from McMahon Associates, Inc. on the completed Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long- Term Facilities Planning of the Wastewater Treatment Facility. The report outlines three sludge disposal options as well as a few WWTP system upgrades. 1. Sludge Drying Facility 2. Reed Bed System Addition 3. Continue Hauling Sludge to Sturgeon Bay WWTP (If this option is considered, it is important to note that Sturgeon Bay may require the northern door communities to pay for the installation of an additional sludge storage tank at their facility to accommodate the space needed for the sludge produced by the northern door communities.) 4. WWTP Upgrades – Oxidation Ditch, Sludge Pump, Effluent Reuse December 9, 2025: Sewer and Water Utility Committee received a presentation from BCR Solid Solutions. The opinion of probable cost for the proposed dryer facility is $17,800,000. The preliminary opinion of probable annual costs for Sister Bay alone is $199,800 and $247,200 with other communities. The opinion of probable annual costs assumes that the dried biosolids are distributed for free. February 10, 2026: Sewer and Water Utility Committee received a presentation from Reed Bed Systems. The opinion of probable cost for the proposed Sister Bay alone reed bed system is $3,100,000. The preliminary opinion of probable annual costs for Sister Bay alone is $97,100. The opinion of probable cost for the proposed Sister Bay with other communities reed bed system is $4,334,100. The preliminary opinion of probable annual costs for Sister Bay with other communities is $147,500. At the March 10, 2026, meeting of the Sewer and Water Utility Committee the committee discussed setting a six-month timeline for regional discussions, after which they would proceed with reed beds if no agreement could be reached. The committee agreed to pursue regional discussions for the sludge drying facility while maintaining reed beds as the fallback option if Sister Bay proceeds alone. The item will be placed on the March board meeting agenda for discussion. 63 Page 3 At the March 24, 2026, the meeting of the Village Board, Trustees discussed the challenge of coordinating multiple municipalities but emphasized the importance of attempting collaboration. On April 1, 2026, the Administrators of Fish Creek and Ephraim joined Utilities Director Barnes and Administrator Andrews for a discussion on regionalization opportunities. Based off that discussion with the other communities, regionalization is possible, but the communities favored the expense associated with reed bed addition versus the sludge dryer. Discussion was also had on the challenges of coordinating cost sharing due to each facility needing their own improvements and upgrades which will impact rates for each community already. FINANCIAL INFORMATION RECOMMENDED ACTION(S) Village staff recommends discussion on the three sludge disposal options outlined and reviewed in the Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility, and to make a recommendation on which sludge processing option to pursue, to the Village Board. FISCAL IMPACT: 1. Is There a Fiscal Impact? Yes 2. Is it Currently Budgeted? Yes-Largest Expense Budgeted 3. If Budgeted, Where: CIP 4. Amount: $17,800,000 64 Page 4 POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S) The Sewer and Water Utility Committee could take the following actions: 1. Approve with Recommendation as Presented “I move to recommend the Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility as presented to the Village Board for approval, with the [Sludge Processing Option Recommended] recommended for approval.” 2. Deny (No Action Alternative) “I move to reject the Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility and take no further action at this time.” 3. Postpone- Seek Additional Information “I move to postpone action on the Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility, and direct staff to return to the SWUC with additional information regarding [List Information Sought] at a future meeting.” ATTACHMENT(S) Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study, and Long-Term Planning for the Wastewater Treatment Facility 65 Page 1 FACILITY STUDY ENGINEERING REPORT Date: October 13, 2026 To: Sewer and Water Utility Committee Re: Wastewater Treatment Facility Study - Engineering Report Author(s): Megan Barnes, Utilities Director Link to access the complete Wastewater Treatment Facility Facility Assessment, Feasibility Study & Long-Term Facility Planning: https://storage.googleapis.com/juniper-media- library/57/2026/10/6c2.%20WWTP%20Facility%20Study%20Complete.pdf 66 Village of Sister Bay Sewer and Water Utilities Committee Operations Report Sewer and Water Utilities Committee Meeting October 13, 2026 Capacity Report See the attached report for August 2026.

DNR Sanitary Survey Our DNR Representative was on site at the WWTP on September 22, 2026, for the Village’s wastewater facility inspection. The inspection is required as part of the WPDES permit renewal process. The purpose of the inspection is to determine compliance with the conditions of the WPDES permit and review wastewater operations and management activities at the facility. Valve Turning Annual valve turning has commenced. Operators will be exercising every main valve and hydrant valve in the distribution system. Electrical Outage WPS notified the Village of a planned electrical outage on October 6, 2026, from 11:30 pm to October 7, 2026, at 3:30 am. Operators came in at 9:30 pm to set up the required portable generators and to wait for the transfer to ensure all programming and operations were functioning. Everything operated perfectly on the available emergency backup power sources. No issues arose and it was a great training refresher on emergency backup power operations for all of the Operators.
