As soon as we are made aware of a delinquent report and new requirement, we have been quick to efficiently bring Maine into compliance. • Road Paving  N 20th Ave and Timber Dr is complete - Shout out to Nate for removing mailboxes as needed and then re-installing after paving ☐ N 20th Ave shouldering – Worden stated mid/late September for completion • Address Signs were ordered and received. Plates with addresses have been ordered. Public Works has installation planned for the next couple of weeks. • Board of Review was held August 20th o There was about a 5% gain in value = 74% value ($100,000 house will be assessed at $74,000) o $3,269,600 in new home, garage, and shed construction o 2029 need for re-evaluation in assessment • Shout out to Trustee Bruce Reynolds for all the time and effort he put into the network, phone, and media upgrades. His expertise and experience are incredibly valuable to ensure the village residents are best served by the right equipment, with the most qualified and responsive vendors, at the best price for long-term use. • Shout out to Clerk Jamie Heindl, Chief Inspector Colette Brill, and election workers John Babl, Cindy Brandenburg, Amanda Geurts, Duane Mueller, Jan Mueller, Judy Mueller, Tom Mueller, Ann Ovel, Barb Reynolds, and Debbie Zastrow for their commitment to serving the community and spending long hours at the village hall for the August 11 election. The dedication from these twelve residents is commendable. • The Marathon County Humane Society contract began September 1st. The Village’s contract with the Lincoln County Humane Society (charged $250 per cat + $1,000 annual fee) ended August 31 2026. Starting September 1st, the Village has signed a contract with the Marathon County Humane Society at a taxpayer cost savings (charges $185 per cat). • Dog complaints have been increasing – habitual barking (nuisance), and uncontrolled dogs running out at walkers (scary). There are ordinances in place, but not much ‘teeth’ to them: o Maine Ordinance 3:10 prohibits dogs ‘running at large’ stating dogs must stay ‘within the confines of the owner’s premises’ o Brokaw Ordinance Title 5.2.060 states ‘running at large’ means the presence of a dog at any place except on the premises of the owner. o Brokaw Ordinance Title 5.2.080 states it is unlawful for any person to keep any dog which habitually barks, yelps or howls. And 5.2.100 states upon the written or oral complaint of two adults, not from the same family, filed with the police department, that such dog shall be removed by the owner within 72 hours after service of a written notice by the police department. Failure to remove such dog(s) will result in penalties set by the Village Board. o Maine and Brokaw ordinances are in the process of being combined. Please watch for proposed updates to the dog ordinance. • High speed drivers on village roads - there has been an increase in calls, emails, and website contacts regarding concerns with vehicles hitting high speeds on Maine’s Falcon, Grove, Kellar, and Overlook roads. This is a serious safety concern. Some actions have been taken, and some will be addressed at subsequent meetings: o Falcon – a constant concern with documentation of speeds above 85MPH as well as video of vehicles passing stopped school buses o Grove – no speed limit sign; plans to install a speed limit sign o Kellar – there was no speed limit sign, and a 35MPH sign has been installed o Overlook – I am still researching why the road posts 30MPH and ATV 35 MPH o In addition – a thank you to PW for installing a new bright yellow ‘school’ sign across from the village hall that replaced the worn brown one hidden by trees Public Works Repot – August 2026 • started to mow the field that potentially could be rented out • cut brush and grass near bridges for bridge inspections • lots of maintenance on N 20th - brush - mailboxes - approaches - building up shoulders • fix signs • grade roads • sweep intersections Budget Comparison - Detail 2026 2026 Budget Status Budget % of September Fund: All Funds 1 ACCT 11:21

Adopted this ______ day of ________________________, 2026. VILLAGE OF MAINE ______________________ Judith Hase, Village President ATTEST: ____________________________ Jamie Heindl, Village Clerk Adopted: Published: Falcon Drive Speed Limit Background August 15 2022 BOT Meeting Minutes C. Discussion and possible action on request to have a four-way stop sign at corner of N 60th Avenue and Falcon Drive. This item was tabled. November 14 2022 BOT Meeting Minutes A. Discussion and possible action on Falcon Drive speed limit. Matthew Koser stated that he feels that cars are speeding on Falcon Drive, and he would like the speed limit to be lowered to 30 mph. There was a lengthy discussion regarding this. Attorney Frokjer stated that the Department of Transportation has completed many studies on the lowering of the speed limits on certain roads and the DOT has found that cars just find another road to drive on and keep driving over the speed limit so, in essence it simply creates a problem on a neighboring road. The Board discussed that this is really an enforcement issue and urged Mr. Koser to set up a meeting with Marathon County Sherriff’s Department. The Board also stated that there are flashing speed monitoring signs in the 2023 budget to hopefully help alleviate the speeding issue. There was no action taken on this item. November 13 2023 BOT Meeting Minutes Discussion and possible action on request to reduce Falcon Drive speed limit. Several residents from Falcon Drive were in attendance at the meeting. The residents would like the Board to reduce the speed on Falcon Drive to 35 mph and also put stop signs at the intersection of North 60th Avenue and Falcon Drive. The Board discussed this item with the residents at length. • Trustee Marquardt stated that as he understands it, the real issue is enforcement of the existing speed limit (45 mph). Trustee Marquardt told the residents that he has contacts at both the Sheriff’s Department and State Patrol and he would make an effort to increase the enforcement of the speed limit on Falcon Drive. • President Hoenisch stated that she would contact the Department of Transportation to see if the Village would need to pay for a study in order to reduce the Falcon Drive speed limit. • Trustee Yelle outlined the above points and told the residents that the Board would have them come back to another meeting when they had more information to give. Discussion and possible action on request to control Falcon Drive and N. 60th Avenue intersection with four-way stop signs. No action taken on this item. January 8 2024 BOT Meeting Minutes A. Update on Falcon Drive Speed Limit matter. President Hoenisch asked Trustee Marquardt to update the Board, Attorney and audience on the calls he made to Marathon County Sheriff’s Department to request speed limit enforcement. Trustee Marquardt asked Ms. Jena Staffaroni if a Marathon County Deputy had paid her a visit regarding the Falcon Drive speed limit violators. Ms. Staffaroni stated that she met with the deputy, however they have not noticed any additional patrols. President Hoenisch explained that she called Ms. Staffaroni contact Al Smith from the DOT. Mr . Smith is signing and pavement marking supervisor. Mr. Smith sent the contact information and message to the DOT Highway Safety Director. Mr. Smith stated that residents of Falcon Drive have contacted him, and he explained to them that he works on state highways, not local roads. President Hoenisch stated that she had a lengthy call with the State Highway Safety Director. Judith The information he provided is listed below: • Wisconsin is a home rule state, so municipalities must follow state and federal transportation regulations. • All local road speed limits are 55 mph and DOT regulations allow a Town or Village Board to lower it to 45 mph. • The DOT's stance is that roads are for vehicular traffic and meant to move traffic from point A to point B. • The speed limit on local roads cannot be lowered below 45 mph without having an Engineering Study completed and submitted to the Department of Transportation for approval. • This is not a Village of Maine Board matter, but rather a state law that mandates that speed limits cannot be lowered without going through an engineering study. • The engineer must do a 100-vehicle study and the cost of the study is $5,000 to $10,000 depending on multiple factors. • The engineer would need to document that vehicles were traveling under 39 mph to justify approving a lower speed limit. • Review of the engineering study does not mean it will be approved. • The DOT wants roads to be signed for a reasonable and pertinent speed limit. President Hoenisch explained that the Safety Engineer viewed the maps while discussing the matter. He stated the density of homes is not high enough to justify lowering the speed limit. The DOT requires 5 homes every 1,000 feet to approve a lower speed limit. President Hoenisch asked the Safety Engineer about the Town of Maine speed limit review that had been completed in 2000. The Safety Engineer explained that until 2006 the DOT provided that service. The DOT has cut its staff from five engineers to one engineer, plus an assistant. This has resulted in the state not having the manpower to complete local road safety studies, so the burden to hire an engineer now falls on the local municipality. The Safety Engineer stated he and his assistant cover 18 counties in Wisconsin. President Hoenisch explained to the Safety Engineer that the speeding violations has been more of an issue COVID. Vehicles. The Safety Engineer commented that the State Patrol are pulling over vehicles that are traveling at over 90 mph. Speeding and not following rules in general is a societal issue since Covid, he stated. President Hoenisch stated that the Falcon Drive speed limit item was on tonight’s agenda for discussion only. She felt the Trustees needed time to process the information provided by the DOT Safety Director. She asked the Trustees to notify the Clerk or herself when they are ready to discuss whether Maine should spend tax dollars to hire an engineer. Mr. Feavel stated that Falcon Drive Road top is narrow, has bad pavement, no centerline stripping and narrow shoulders. There was discussion between the Board, Feveal, Staffaroni and Kosher on the flashing speed signs. Ms. Staffaroni requested that flags be placed on the Falcon Drive 45 mph speed limit signs to draw motorist attention and the Trustees said yes. Mr. Feveal asked if N. 60th Avenue could be signed as a four-way stop intersection. President Hoenisch explained that she discussed this with the DOT Safety Engineer. The criterion for that request is there needs to be five accidents at an intersection in a twelve month period. It also needs to be a specific type of accident. The Safety Engineer check the accident report during the call and there has been one accident since January of 2018. Trustee Yelle stated that with the information provided it appears that the DOT will not approve a lower speed limit on Falcon Drive even if Maine has a study done. Trustee Marquardt asked Ms. Staffaroni to continue to monitor Falcon Drive for habitual violators. He encouraged her to call Marathon County with license plate numbers and descriptions of vehicles. Trustee Marquardt stated that if Marathon County does not respond, then Ms. Staffaroni should call him, and he will reach out to the captain that he worked with.

Good morning Mr. Lindstrom, CMOM INFO - Maine’s Zoning Administrator Rich Grefe is working with Cedar Corp and the plan is to have them start the ordinance re-write in May 2026. The ordinance re-write would include the Utility Ordinance and necessary references to the CMOM. If this timeline is not satisfactory, please let me know because I will need to obtain Board approval to have Cedar Corp update the Utility Ordinance prior to entering into a contract for Maine’s municipal code rewrite. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS – small municipality employees and officials wear a lot of hats and the winter storms have prevented Operator Henaman and I from meeting to discuss the “Recommended Actions.” Operator Henaman and I will schedule a time to work on the “Recommended Action” responses in the near future.

The population is approximately 2,600 people . Maine was organized as a town in 1866. In December 2015, Maine voted to become a village. The village has a total area of 42.4 square miles and 83 miles of roads. The Maine Wastewater Treatment Facility directly handles wastewater for the Brokaw area, serving approximately 80 customers. The Maine Sewer Utility currently operates and maintains a sewer collection system which consists of 22,000 linear fee t of sewer mains (approximately 4.17 miles) . A USDA Rural Development investment expanded the system by adding 2,375 linear fee t of gravity sewer alongside twelve new manholes. The wastewater network serves the local Brokaw district and was heavily altered when Maine absorbed the defunct Village of Brokaw Wastewater Utility Plant. The Village of Maine Wastewater Treatment Plant is located at 90 Everest Avenue in Brokaw WI. Management of the Wastewater Treatment Plant will be a proactive endeavor so that we are able to meet the goals of this plan as well as to provide our customers with fiscally, technically , and environmentally sound operations of the system. An overview of our system along with our management approach is contained in the following sections. 2.0 GOALS The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) defines a CMOM plan that ensures the following general standards are met: • The sewage collection system is properly managed, operated, and always maintained • The sewage collection system provides adequate capacity to convey all peak design flows • All feasible steps are taken to eliminate excessive infiltration and inflow, cease sanitary sewer overflows and sewage treatment facility overflows , and mitigate the impact of such overflows on waters of the state, the environment, and public health • A process is in place to notify the public and other directly affected parties of any incidents of overflows from the sewerage system • Annual reports are submitted The Village of Maine has developed this Capacity, Management, Operation and Maintenance Plan to put into place the ideas, concepts and procedures to be used to prevent sewer overflows to the extent possible and practicable. The goals of the plan are: • Prevent overflows from the sanitary sewer to the extent possible • Manage the assets of the Wastewater Utility inclusive of personnel and equipment to affect a regular maintenance program and to be able to respond to emergency overflows of the system • Promote safety by verifying all workers have the required equipment prior to any work performed and keep the Public Works crew up to date with all safety procedures through continuing education classes • Prioritize maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement activities for the portions of the collection system Maine CMOM 2026 Page 4 of 19 • Complete a percentage of preventative maintenance on the collection system including, but not limited to televising, cleaning, root removal and inspections • Enforce appropriate ordinances that will help to better manage the performance of the collection system, including inspections for private sump connections and Inflow/Infiltration (I/I) reduction. Review and update these ordinances as necessary. • Work together with the Village Board to ensure there are ample funds budgeted for any projected projects on the collection system • Educate the public on the importance of an efficient collection s ystem through mailings, newsletters, brochures, and information on the Village’s website • Review CMOM annually to ensure compliance with NR 210.23, especially as it relates to notification of the public and those directly affected by any overflows, and submit annual reports according to NR 208 3.0 ORGANIZATION Persons who are responsible for implementing the CMOM program shall be identified including administration, management, and maintenance personnel or positions, lines of authority of such personnel or positions, internal and external communication responsib ilities, and the person or persons who shall report all overflow events to the department and to the public. 3.1 Organizational Structure The Village operates the wastewater collection system. The Main Utility staff includes one full - time employee who divides their time between operation and maintenance of the sewer collection system , the water works, and public works. The Village’s President and Trustees oversee the time and management of the Utilities. See Table 1 for Village Staff and Figure 1 for the Organizational Structure. Table 1 Village Staff Title Name Email Phone President Judith Hase jhase@villageofmaine.org (715) 675-5067 Trustee Dan Brandenburg dbrandenburg@villageofmaine.org Trustee Bruce Reynolds breynolds@villageofmaine.org Trustee Wayne Schoepke wschoepke@villageofmaine.org Trustee Ben Seidler bseidler@villageofmaine.org Utility Operator Michael Henaman mhenaman@villageofmaine.org (715) 573-5607 Clerk/Treasurer Jamie Heindl clerk@villageofmaine.org (715) 675-5607 Public Works Nathan Fitzke nfitzk81@yahoo.com Contractor Jesse Hass jhass@wrwa.org (920) 470-2963 Figure 1 Organizational Structure: Village President Board of Trustees Clerk/Treasurer Utility Operator Public Works Foreman Maine CMOM 2026 Page 5 of 19 3.2 Job Descriptions The Village President and Village Trustees form the governing Village Board. The President acts as the manager and meeting chair, while Trustees serve as members of the legislative body. Together, they pass local laws, approve budgets, and oversee municipal operations. The Utility Operator is the d esignated person responsible for officially notifying the Wisconsin DNR, Village leadership, and the public if a Sanitary Sewer Overflow (SSO) or emergency event occurs. The Utility Operator is responsible for the system maintenance and oversees the sewer cleaning, televising, and manhole inspections; completes regulatory reporting and documents system information for the annual DNR Compliance Annual Report (CMAR); implements the Overflow Emergency Response Plan (OERP) to prevent and manage SSOs; evaluates and manages peak flows, system bottlenecks, and groundwater infiltration; inputs field data into GIS software to track asset condition and maintenance histories; and coordinates lift station maintenance. The Village Clerk manages daily municipal operations and is a key local government official who manages municipal record-keeping, administrative tasks, and public finances. This combined role handles official board proceedings, local elections, license iss uances, budget preparation, tax collection, and fund accounting under state statutes and board policies. The Village Public Works Foreman is a first -level supervisory and working role that directs daily field operations, maintains local infrastructure like roads, parks, and utilities, operates heavy equipment, and manages public works crews to ensure community safety and service delivery. Contract support includes a wastewater technician/trainer that assists as needed. 3.3 Training The Village of Maine ensures municipal utility personnel have the knowledge and technical skills to manage wastewater collection systems efficiently, prevent sanitary SSOs, and comply with environmental standards . Each employee is required to periodically attend safety training courses. Training may be in the form of formal off -site or on -site training, on -the-job training, college/vocational course work or other appropriate venue. Certified Operators are required t o obtain continuing education units for his/her license. Required Training: • Technical training in sewer cleaning, closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspection, and lift station maintenance • Essential safety protocols including Confined Space Entry, Lockout/Tagout (LOTO), excavation safety, and traffic control • Emergency Overflow Response training on how to rapidly diagnose, mitigate, and report SSOs or basement backups • Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) inspections and public education strategies to minimize pipeline blockages • Data Management & Auditing training on tracking standard operating procedures (SOPs), recordkeeping, and completing the annual CMAR Maine CMOM 2026 Page 6 of 19 • Within the first three months of employment, utility personnel are required to attend a course in lock out/tag out and confined space entry • Routine line maintenance – jet cleaning • Environmental/safety regulations • Pump theory, operation including speed control, and maintenance • Laboratory procedures, equipment calibration, sample collection and handling • Electrical and instrumentation training • Sewer overflow response and reporting • Collection system evaluation including smoke testing and CCTV • Pipe repair • Collection system rehabilitation including pipe bursting, cured in place, slip lining, and trenching/shoring • Heavy equipment operation • Wastewater System Operations and Maintenance The operating budget shall contain a line item sufficient to provide a mix of on and off -site training such that each employee can obtain professional/trades development training annually inclusive of continuing education needed for license requirements. T he line -item funding will include course costs, travel, lodging and meals , and incidental expenses consistent with typical costs for the location. 3.4 Public Information and Education The public has a direct impact on the condition and maintenance of the collection system. The Village of Maine makes every effort to educate the public through postings on the website, spring and fall newsletters, and educational brochures inserted in thei r utility bills. The bi -annual newsletters will instruct residential and commercial kitchens never to pour grease down the drain, which solidifies and causes severe blockages; educate the public that items labeled as "flushable" wipes do not break down and must be thrown in the trash; educate the public to never flush sanitary napkins down the toilet and when flushed, they expand and cause severe sewer backups; and instruct homeowners against illegally connecting sump pumps, roof downspouts, or foundation d rains to the sanitary sewer system, which overloads wastewater plants during heavy rains. The village will notify affected customers prior to any scheduled maintenance work with the distribution of notices and/or on -site conversations. The Village offers information to help residents understand why basement backups happen, how they can be prevented and what steps citizens should take if a sewer backup affects their property. 4.0 LEGAL AUTHORITY Legal authority consists of the Village codes and ordinances and the enforcement of codes and ordinances. The Village of Maine has taken steps to enforce the legal authority necessary to regulate the flow entering the collection system from residential, commercial and industrial customers by passing Ordinance Chapter 10.2.020 Sanity Sewers in September 2015 that ensures oversight and control as necessary. See Attachment 1 for the Sewer Ordinance. A summary of steps follows: Maine CMOM 2026 Page 7 of 19 1) Inflow/Infiltration – No person shall discharge or cause to be discharged, any unpolluted waters, such as storm water, ground water, roof runoff, subsurface drainage or cooling water to any sewer. Chapter 10.2.020. 2) New Sewer Design, Installation – The property owner is responsible for all costs and expenses for the installation and connection of new sewer laterals where available.

Continuance of any violation will result in forfeiture of an amount according to a fee schedule adopted by the Village Board together with the costs of prosecution. Chapter 10.2.080 (c). 5.0 DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS The Village of Maine sanitary sewer system consists of gravity and forced main components. The system is not interconnected with other sanitary collection systems. Maps of the system are maintained by the utility at 90 Everest Ave. See Table 2 for the System Profile. Table 2 System Profile Office Address 6111 N 44th Avenue, Wausau WI 54401 Population 2636 in Maine, there are 81 utility customers Annual Precipitation Approximately 33 inches per year Utility Operator Michael Henaman mhenaman@villageofmaine.org (715) 573-5607 WWTP Permit WPDES Permit# WI-0022136-10-0 Upgrade Modifications None Maine CMOM 2026 Page 8 of 19 Plant Design Capacity 0.45 MGD Avg Daily Wastewater Volume 0.020 MGD Feet of Gravity Sewers 18,137.8 feet Feet of Force Mains 936.2 feet Number of Lift Stations 1 Number of Manholes 70 5.1 Wastewater Treatment Plant The Village of Maine Wastewater Treatment Plant is located at 90 Everest Ave, on approximately 2.27 acres. All wastewater from the Village enters the WWTF through an 8” main. 5.2 Collection System Capacities within the collection system vary by the size of the piping that makes up the system. It is important to determine capacities within the collection system to gauge whether portions are subject to surcharge and overflows and to develop a baseline from which planning decisions regarding new connections may be made. Even if the treatment plant flows within the design capacity, portions of the collection system could be receiving more flows than their design capacities. Some items that may affect sew er capacity are debris (solids, grease), root growth, I/I, new connections . The Lift Station Evaluation shows the collection system is in fairly good condition. 5.3 Lift Station Capacity Determination The concept of capacity for a wastewater system has two basic elements : the capacity of the wastewater plant and the capacity of the collection system. Inflow/infiltration and growth can result in wastewater flows exceeding the design capacity of either the plant or collection system or both. Existing flows were determined on a sewer district basis using the number of units within the sewer district and area wastewater flow rates for various types of land use. Land uses and population projections were used to determine future flows. Peak flows were used as a basis for evaluating the existing sewer system and lift stations. In developed areas, peak flows were compared with the system capacities to identify those facilities that might be undersized at ultimate development. Each service area was a nalyzed independently. Of the one existing lift station, all have adequate capacity today to handle ultimate flows. All design standards for the Village of Maine follow State of WI Plumbing Code, Municipal code, and DNR code for sewer design work, municipal sewer inspections or for construction design and inspections. See Table 3 for the Lift Station Capacity. Table 3 Lift Station Capacity Lift Station Peak Capacity Estimate Firm Capacity* 1 460 GPM 230 GPM *Firm Capacity assumes one pump running. Maine CMOM 2026 Page 9 of 19 5.4 Sewage Collection System Map . The map below shows the layout, force mains, manholes, lift station, and flow direction. 5.5 Mapping The importance of maintaining accurate, current maps of the collection system cannot be overstated. Efficient collection system maintenance repairs are unlikely if mapping is not adequate. Collection system maps should clearly indicate the information that personnel need to carry out their assignments. The collection system maps contain information on the following: • Sewer gravity mains • Building/house laterals (where available) • Manholes • Cleanouts • Force mains • Lift station • Service area boundaries • Other landmarks (roads, water bodies, etc.) • Aerial overlay The collection system maps have a permanently assigned numbering system which uniquely identifies all elements of the collection system. The maps are simple and easy to understand. Easements and property lines are also included on the maps. Other information included on the maps is a scale, north arrow, date the map was drafted and the date of the last revision. Maine CMOM 2026 Page 10 of 19 Geographic Information System (GIS) technology has made the mapping and map updating process considerably more efficient. Village office and field personnel can easily view all attributes of each component of the collection system. These include, but are not limited to: • Sewer Pipe Material and Diameter • Sewer Pipe Length, Slope and Direction of Flow • Sewer Pipe Televising Dates and Information • Manhole Rim and Invert Elevations • Construction History of Sewer Pipes, Manholes and Lift Stations • Maintenance History of Sewer Pipes, Manholes and Lift Stations • Note of any critical areas pertaining to Basement Backups or Inflow/Infiltration Specific procedures have been established for correction of errors and updating maps and drawings. Field personnel are trained to recognize discrepancies between field conditions and map data so that office personnel can make the changes necessary to corre ct the existing mapping system. As -built plans are also used to update the maps. These new components are also field verified with GPS equipment using the same County coordinates. The maps are available to both office and field personnel. 5.6 Sewer System Inspection Visual inspection of manholes and pipelines are the first line of defense in the identification of existing or potential problem areas. Visual inspections take place on both a scheduled basis and as part of any preventative or corrective maintenance activi ty. Visual inspections provide additional information concerning the accuracy of system mapping, the presence and degree of I/I problems and the physical state -of-repair of the system. By observing the manhole directly and the incoming and outgoing lines, it is possible to determine structural condition, the presence of roots, condition of joints, depth of debris in the line and depth of flow. An examination of the records of visual inspections ensures the following information is recorded: • Manhole identification number location • Cracks or breaks in the manhole or pipe • Accumulation of grease, debris or grit • Wastewater flow characteristics • Inflow or Infiltration • Condition of manhole cover • Presence of corrosion • Offsets or misalignments • Condition of the frame • Evidence of surcharge • Atmospheric hazard measurements (hydrogen sulfide) Close circuit television analysis of the interior of sewer lines is one of the most comprehensive evaluation methods available as it allows surveying the interior conditions of a pipe. Areas of the sewer system that are experiencing frequent blockages and/ or I/I should be analyzed by CCTV analysis to determine the cause of the problems. Tree roots, misaligned joints, saddles, and Maine CMOM 2026 Page 11 of 19 collapses are common reasons for blockages to occur as grease and other materials begin to accumulate in these areas. Likewise, cracks, joint problems and illegal connections can be identified with the aid of television inspection. CCTV inspection of the sewer system will be utilized in areas with know n and repeat problems to diagnose the cause(s) of the problems. All sewer mains are televised on a 3-year frequency. 6.0 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Collection system operation and maintenance (O&M) consist of inspection, evaluation, preventative maintenance, and cleaning of sewer main and laterals, manholes and lift stations to maintain flow and mitigate inflow and infiltration. O&M varies by the equipment type, condition, age and operating history, with equipment identified as critical receiving maintenance at greater frequencies. Periodic factors may necessitate a more frequent O&M schedule for individual components. Appropriate corrective actions or temporary mitigation measures are initiated based upon the findings of the routine O&M activities. The Village of Maine cleans the sanitary sewer per the routine maintenance schedule using a contracted Vactor Truck and portable tanker trailer for flushing. All sewer cleaning records are kept on file at the WWTP Office and are also used for updating the Village’s GIS mapping system. The records include date, time, crew members, manhole or Lift Station ID#, type of work performed, cause and location of any stoppage, method of cleaning, length of sewer main cleaned, televised or repaired, or any further actions necessary. The Village of Maine increased sewer line cleaning to 33 percent/year to ensure the sewer-line is being properly maintained. See Table 4 for the Collection System Routine Maintenance Schedule. Table 4 Collection System Routine Maintenance Schedule Description Known Issues Weekly Annually Master Lift Station Grease build- up and rags Visual check for general condition, grease buildup, floats, transducers. Test pumps, alarm system, generator Remove pumps for inspection and clean master lift with Vactor Truck Remainder of collection system No known problems Visual check for general condition, grease buildup, floats, transducers. Test pumps, alarm system, generator Visual check for general condition and overflow evidence, clean 33% of the collection system and televise any areas with suspected problems 6.1 Parts and Equipment Inventory . To perform routine operations and maintenance, respond to emergencies and prevent sanitary sewer overflows, it is critical to have adequate equipment. The inventory is based on equipment manufacturer’s recommendations, supplemented by historical experience with maintenance and equipment problems. Files for the Village’s inventory of parts are maintained at the WWTP Office. Below is a current list of equipment located at the Village Public Works Garage: (1) Portable Trash Pump (1) Portable Centrifugal Pump Maine CMOM 2026 Page 12 of 19 (2) Portable Generators (1) Loader (3) Dump Trucks (1) Pick-up Truck w/Warning Lights & Hand Tools (1) 20’ Equipment Trailer (1) Hot Water Pressure Washer (1) Skid steer w/Snow Blower, Broom, and Bucket (1) Line Locators (1) Portable Spotlight (4) Extension Cords (1) First Aid Kits (4) Fire Extinguishers Personal Safety Equipment Barricades & Flashers Various sizes and lengths of Hoses for Pumps Various Fire Hoses with fittings and adapters 6.2 Asset Management The assets of the Village of Maine sanitary sewer system include the collection system, lift station, Wastewater Treatment Plant, generators, vehicles, office and laboratory facilities and all related appurtenances. Both paper and computer -based records fo r these assets are located at the WWTP office. The Village addresses asset management to maintain infrastructure, evaluate equipment condition, and budget for long -term repair or replacement by taking the following steps: • Create a complete list of all collection systems and treatment plant parts • Maintain preventive maintenance and inspection schedules • Track repair time and cost • Rank assets by age, condition, failure history, and replacement costs • Budget for a repair schedule and financial reserve plan • Review performance annually through CMAR financial and collection system sections The ability of the Village of Maine to effectively manage its collection system is directly related to its ability to maintain access to the most current information concerning the facilities. Maintenance of this current information is an effort involving all members of the collection system - from staff answering the telephone to workers in the street. Operational information informs and clarifies financial information. This will make the financial information more useful for the policy makers, leading to better decisions. The system should be kept current with accurate information. A satisfactory management information system will supply the Village with the following advantages: • Maintain preventive maintenance and inspection schedules • Offer budgetary justification • Track repairs • Organize capital replacement plans Maine CMOM 2026 Page 13 of 19 • Manage tool and equipment inventories • Record customer service inquiries, complaints or requests • Provide measurement of effectiveness of program and O&M activities 6.3 Routine Preventive Operation Critical components are parts of the collection system which if failure occurs will result in system failure and sewer overflow. Such items may include failure of a pump, failure of a backup generator to start, or obstruction in the sewer line. Other probl ems identified by maintenance activities will be less acute and can be repaired on a lower priority basis. This may include loose or missing manhole bricks, broken manhole covers, lift station lighting, etc. The response time is a requirement for the Village of Maine to complete. Not meeting the required response time will be considered a failure on the part of the system to meet the requirements of this plan. The repair time goal is a stated goal. Many factors, some out of control of the system, will impact the ability of the system to make the necessary repairs. Not meeting the repair goals will not be considered a plan failure but will be noted in self -audits from which plan and or operational changes may be fashioned. Routine maintenance will identify repair needs within system components. The appropriate repair for any given problem is dependent upon the nature of the problem and cannot be prescribed in this plan. However, a priority hierarchy has been established to structure what and when repairs are to be accomplished. The hierarchy is based upon identifying and repairing critical components first. When normal maintenance activities identify the need for component repairs or when problems are brought to the attention of the system by customers or others, the problem and corresponding repair will be assigned a priority ranking . See Table 5 for the Collection System Response and Repair Hierarchy. Table 5 Collection System Response and Repair Hierarchy: Problem Priority Response Time Action Repair Time Goal Active Sewer Overflow 1 Within 1 hour of receiving report Stop overflow, return system to normal operation Within 4 hours of arriving on site Failure of Critical Component, Overflow/Bypass Will Occur if Not Repaired 1 Within 1 hour of receiving report or discovering problem Repair or replace component, return system to normal operation Within 4 hours of arriving on site Unsafe Condition Poses Risk to public or Employees 1 Within 1 hour of receiving report or discovering problem Mitigate and repair to eliminate unsafe condition Mitigate risk within 2 hours of arriving on site, repair within 8 hours if public risk, 7 days if employee risk Evidence of System Surcharging and Intermittent Overflow 2 Within 1 day of receiving report of discovering problem Clean sewer line, check for proper lift station operation.

Grease and grease-like products can be significant contributors of sewer overflows. The lift station within our system is closely monitored and cleaned annually to prevent the buildup of grease. All users are discouraged from discharging fats, oils, greases and all copper -based products. Educational material is available at the Village Hall. The discharge of fats, oils and grease (FOG) are regulated by Village Ordinance Chapter # 10.2.020-10.2.030. The system has one lift station to move sewage from low elevation areas to higher elevation areas. Periodic loss of power may occur due to storms and electrical grid equipment failures. The Village’s lift station and the Treatment Plant are monitored with either a SCADA Alarm System or an on-site light and alarm. The Lift Stations all have back-up power available. Therefore, none of the lift stations are considered critical components due to a lack of backup power. 6.4 Lift Station Maintenance All Lift Station equipment is to be maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications. A team from a licensed sewer cleaning service inspects and cleans the Lift Station on an annual basis to ensure it is in good working condition. The Villag e is provided a copy of their maintenance reports. Specification manuals for each of the Lift Station pumps are in the respective electrical panels. The following maintenance activities are conducted by utility personnel monthly: • Inspect the Level Sensing Floats • Inspect Transducer Maine CMOM 2026 Page 15 of 19 • Inspect for Grease Buildup • Test the Pumps • Test Alarm System • Hookup and run generator under load (annually) 6.5 Force Mains Utility personnel run both pumps simultaneously on a weekly basis at all Lift Stations to scour the sewer force mains. Procedures such as poly pigging, televising, etc. will be considered as needed. Reports will be submitted to the DNR for the sewage collection system that details the location of the lift station, force main, and its downstream discharge point as well as the capacity analysis showing that the downstream gravity sewer system can adequately handle the pressurized flow from the force main. 6.6 Condition Assessment The condition of an asset is dependent upon several factors including its overall condition, maintenance requirements, whether it is over or under capacity for its intended service, and how well the asset is performing the job it was designed to perform. All these factors are subjective in nature, so the condition assessment is meant to be an estimate and not an exact analysis. Following are the assessment criteria that the Village w ill use to assess the condition of the utility’s assets. See Table 6 for Condition Assessment. Table 6 Condition Assessment Performance Assessment 0 New 1 Excellent No failures, no I/I 2 Good Rare failure, minor infiltration, no inflow 3 Average Failures typical of equipment, infiltration exceeds design, minor inflow 4 Poor Frequent failures, substantial I/I but no overflows 5 Salvage Needs substantial maintenance to keep operational, overflows occur Capacity Assessment 0 Oversized +25 Meets current need plus more than 25% 1 Oversized <25% Meets current need plus up to 25% more 2 Full sized Meets current need 3 Undersized Current need exceeds capability but able to control through operational means 4 Undersized <25% Current need exceeds capability by up to 25%, can’t control 5 Undersized +25% Current need exceeds capability by more than 25%, can’t control Non-PM Maintenance Assessment 0 None No non-PM maintenance requirements 1 Normal Normal requirements 2 Minor More than normal but not significant 3 Significant Requires frequent maintenance Maine CMOM 2026 Page 16 of 19 4 Renew Substantial including frequent component 5 Replace Nearly unserviceable Non-PM excludes routine items such as greasing, cleaning, oil changes or other consumable part replacements at normal intervals Total Score 0 New or like new 1-3 Excellent 4-6 Good 7-9 Average 10-12 Poor Any Component score of 5 Replace 7.0 OVERFLOW EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN An Overflow Emergency Response Plan is required for dealing with both routine and catastrophic emergencies. Routine emergencies include situations such as overflowing manholes, sewer main breaks, localized electrical failure and power outages at Lift Stati ons. Catastrophic emergencies include floods, tornadoes, earthquakes, other natural events, serious chemical spills or widespread electrical failure. Procedures for the Emergency Response Plan should be understood and practiced by all personnel to ensure safety of the public and the collection system personnel responding. The Plan is in the Wastewater Utility Office at 90 Everest Ave, Brokaw WI and Village Hall at 6111 N. 44th Avenue, Wausau WI . The Village President and the Operator in Charge shall review and update this document annually. Detailed records of emergencies and responses are documented. 7.1 Response Communication The Village of Maine, per Wisconsin Administrative Code NR 210.23, will establish standards to safely manage, mitigate, and report Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs) and basement backups. The Operator in Charge will verbally notify the WI DNR within 24 hours of discovering an SSO. Affected public areas will be closed off, warning signs will be posted, and an alert will be broadcast from the village website to affected residents if drinking water or recreational waters are impacted. A rapid containment measure to limit the volume of the discharge, stop the overflow, and prevent raw sewage from entering storm sewers or surface waters will be conducted by first locating the source of the SSO. The Operator in Charge will initiate c lean-up and disinfection procedures for removing debris, vacuuming spilled wastewater, and applying lime or other disinfectants to the affected soil or pavement . As soon as the SSO is contained, an all-clear announcement will be communicated to the affected residents via a website alert. Within five days, a written report will be submitted to the DNR Regulatory contact personnel. 7.2 Lift Station in Emergency The Lift Station is equipped with two submersible pumps. In the case of a complete Village-wide electrical outage, portable pumping by Village personnel and private waste haulers as well as Maine CMOM 2026 Page 17 of 19 non-use of the low flow Lift Stations would accommodate the system’s needs on a temporary basis. During an emergency, Lift Station #1 will be powered by a portable generator. In the event of two pump failures a local septic hauler will be contacted to shuttle wastewater to the treatment plant. The Village of Maine has taken steps towards the security of the collection system by installing a SCADA Alarm System. See Table 7 Lift Station Design Information. Table 7 Lift Station Design Information Lift Station Location Year Constructed Backup Power Alarm System 1 400 Everest Ave 2021 Portable Generator SCADA Onsite Alarm and Light The following flow chart describes the actions that will be taken in the event of an overflow of the collection system.
