Department/Office: Transit
Item Name: Shared Ride Taxi 2027 Exercise of Options
Summary:
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Ozaukee County Transit Service contracts with Riteway Bus Service, Inc. dba GO Riteway
Transportation Group for operation of the Ozaukee County Shared Ride Taxi program under
Contract OCTS2217. The contract was procured in 2022 and includes annual options for
continuation of service.
Calendar Year 2027 represents the fifth and final year of the current contract. Exercising the
option will extend the existing Shared Ride Taxi service contract for one year, from January 1,
2027 through December 31, 2027.
As part of the annual process to exercise the contract option, WisDOT requires completion of the
Exercise of Options form, including a price analysis supporting the updated contractor rate.
Applicable federal clauses must also be executed by the contractor and submitted to WisDOT.
See documents attached.
ANALYSIS:
Staff recommends exercising the fifth and final contract option for 2027 to continue Shared Ride
Taxi services from January 1, 2027 through December 31, 2027.
The current contractor rate is $36.84 per service hour. In accordance with the contract, the annual
rate adjustment is based on the June Midwest Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
(CPI-U). The June 2026 Midwest CPI-U increase is 3.8%.
Applying the 3.8% adjustment increases the contractor rate from $36.84 to $38.24 per service
hour for 2027.
The maximum amount for the 2027 contract extension is $2,248,512, based on 58,800 annual
service hours at the 2027 rate of $38.24 per service hour.
The Exercise of Options documentation includes the required price analysis and determination
that the 2027 hourly rate is fair and reasonable. The existing contract requirements and
applicable federal requirements will remain in effect during the final option year.

this contract completed?
Shared-Ride Taxi (SRT) contracts include options to ensure the future availability of services, so long as the
Transit System is able to justify those options as needed for its public transportation or project purposes.
An option is a unilateral right in a contract by which, for a specified time, a recipient may acquire additional
equipment, supplies, or services than originally procured.
As required by Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Circular 4220.IG , Transit Systems must
complete a price analysis for every mutually agreed upon Shared Ride Taxi contract option.
Exercise of Options
Transit system must notate a check next to the appropriate cell:
D CY2027 will be the second year of the contract and it needs an exercise of options.
D CY2027 will be the third year of the contract and it needs an exercise of options.
D CY2027 will be the fourth year of the contract and it needs an exercise of options.
181 CY2027 will be the fifth year of the contract and it needs an exercise of options.
Updated Vendor's Hourly Rate
To calculate the vendor's updated hourly rate for the next year, apply the annual inflation rate
percentage from June 2026 to the vendor's current rate.
The Consumer Price Index for all items as published on the Bureau of Labor Statistics web site can
be found here .
The current rate (CPI-U) for all items used for this calculation is 3.8%, based on the annual
Midwest rate for June 2026 as required by the Transit System's RFP.

(A) is presented as "I +percent")
(B)
$36.84 1.038 $38.24
Page 12 of 94
Transit System must compare the 2027 rate with the spreadsheet of Shared-Ride Taxi service costs
for systems statewide (taking into account similar percentage increases for inflation as calculated
above).
Contract Max Amount
The maximum amount of funding for this contract extension shall be $2.248,512 based on 58,800
hours of service at the rate of $38.24 per hour.
(Note: Hours of service were identified in the original procurement)
Fair and Reasonable Justification
Transit System must provide a written justification, with specific information, why the Vendor's
2027 hourly rate is.fair and reasonable (Stating "per contract" is not an adequate response to
comply with FTA requirements).
The Vendor's rate is fair and reasonable because it follows the CPI-U percentage
increase specific to the Midwest, consistent with the cost analysis that Ozaukee County
performed as part of its service contract procurement.
By signing this form, Ozaukee County Transit Services agrees to a one-year extension of the
shared-ride taxi service contract with Riteway Bus Service, Inc. dba GO Riteway
Transportation Group. The extension is in accordance with the original contract, Request for
Proposal solicitation, all attachments, addenda and revisions, the contractor's proposal, and
all applicable federal certifications and clauses. This extension is valid from January 1, 2027,
through December 31, 2027.
Please have this document signed by the supplier and a transit system signatory authority, email the
signed document to Joe Turchi josepho.turchi@dot.wi.gov 608-267-3568
The federal clauses (separate attachment) must also be signed by the supplier and submitted to Joe

In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working on the site of the work (or under the United States Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the construction or development of the project), all or part of the wages required by the contract, the Recipient may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased. (3) Payrolls and basic records (i) Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the contractor during the course of the work and preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers and mechanics working at the site of the work (or under the United States Housing Act of 1937, or under the Housing Act of 1949, in the construction or development of the project).

Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs. (ii) (A) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a copy of all payrolls to the Recipient for transmission to the Federal Transit Administration. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29 CFR part 5. This information may be submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH-347 is available for this purpose and may be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents (Federal Stock Number

(B) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a "Statement of Compliance," signed by the contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall certify the following: (1) That the payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be maintained under section 5.5(a)(3)(i) of Regulations, 29 CFR part 5 and that such information is correct and complete; (2) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper, apprentice, and trainee) employed on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set forth in Regulations, 29 CFR part 3; (3) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract. (C) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH-347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the "Statement of Compliance" required by paragraph C (a)(3)(ii)(B) of this section. (D) The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under section 1001 of title 18 and section 231 of title 31 of the United States Code.

Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12. (4) Apprentices and trainees (i) Apprentices - Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually
Page 35 of 94
performed. In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (ii) Trainees - Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5. (7) Contract termination: debarment - A breach of the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12. (8) Compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Act requirements - All rulings and interpretations of the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract. (9) Disputes concerning labor standards - Disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their representatives. (10) Certification of eligibility (i) By entering into this contract, the contractor certifies that neither it (nor he or she) nor any person or firm who has an interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be awarded Government contracts by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1). (ii) No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).

Flow Down Requirement: The termination requirements flow down to all contracts in excess of $10,000, with the exception of contracts with nonprofit organizations and institutions of higher learning. Model Clause/Language: FTA does not prescribe the form or content of such clauses. The following are suggestions of clauses to be used in different types of contracts: A. Termination for Convenience (General Provision) The (Recipient) may terminate this contract, in whole or in part, at any time by written notice to the Contractor when it is in the Government's best interest. The Contractor shall be paid its costs, including contract close-out costs, and profit on work performed up to the time of termination. The Contractor shall promptly submit its termination claim to (Recipient) to be paid the Contractor. If the Contractor has any property in its possession belonging to the (Recipient), the Contractor will account for the same, and dispose of it in the manner the (Recipient) directs. B. Termination for Default [Breach or Cause] (General Provision) If the Contractor does not deliver supplies in accordance with the contract delivery schedule, or, if the contract is for services, the Contractor fails to perform in the manner called for in the contract, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of the contract, the (Recipient) may terminate this contract for default. Termination shall be affected by serving a notice of termination on the contractor setting forth the manner in which the Contractor is in default. The contractor will only be paid the contract price for supplies delivered and accepted, or services performed in accordance with the manner of performance set forth in the contract. If it is later determined by the (Recipient) that the Contractor had an excusable reason for not performing, such as a strike, fire, or flood, events which are not the fault of or are beyond the control of the Contractor, the (Recipient), after setting up a new delivery of performance schedule, may allow the Contractor to continue work, or treat the termination as a termination for convenience. C. Opportunity to Cure (General Provision) The (Recipient) in its sole discretion may, in the case of a termination for breach or default, allow the Contractor [an appropriately short period of time] in which to cure the defect. In such case, the notice of termination will state the time period in which cure is permitted and other appropriate conditions. If Contractor fails to remedy to (Recipient)'s satisfaction the breach or default of any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Contract within [ten (10) days] after receipt by Contractor of written notice from (Recipient) setting forth the nature of said breach or default, (Recipient) shall have the right to terminate the Contract without any further obligation to Contractor. Any such termination for default shall not in any way operate to preclude (Recipient) from also pursuing all available remedies against Contractor and its sureties for said breach or default. D. Waiver of Remedies for any Breach In the event that (Recipient) elects to waive its remedies for any breach by Contractor of any covenant, term or condition of this Contract, such waiver by (Recipient) shall not limit (Recipient)'s remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this Contract. E. Termination for Convenience (Professional or Transit Service Contracts) The (Recipient), by written notice, may terminate this contract, in whole or in part, when it is in the Government's interest. If this contract is terminated, the Recipient shall be liable only for payment under the payment provisions of this contract for services rendered before the effective date of termination. F.

terminate by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of Termination specifying the nature of the default. The Contractor will only be paid the contract price for supplies delivered and accepted, or services performed in accordance with the manner or performance set forth in this contract.If, after termination for failure to fulfill contract obligations, it is determined that the Contractor was not in default, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the Recipient. G. Termination for Default (Transportation Services) If the Contractor fails to pick up the commodities or to perform the services, including delivery services, within the time specified in this contract or any extension or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of this contract, the (Recipient) may terminate this contract for default. The (Recipient) shall terminate by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of Termination specifying the nature of default. The Contractor will only be paid the contract price for services performed in accordance with the manner of performance set forth in this contract. If this contract is terminated while the Contractor has possession of Recipient goods, the Contractor shall, upon direction of the (Recipient), protect and preserve the goods until surrendered to the Recipient or its agent. The Contractor and (Recipient) shall agree on payment for the preservation and protection of goods. Failure to agree on an amount will be resolved under the Dispute clause. If, after termination for failure to fulfill contract obligations, it is determined that the Contractor was not in default, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the (Recipient). H. Termination for Default (Construction) If the Contractor refuses or fails to prosecute the work or any separable part, with the diligence that will insure its completion within the time specified in this contract or any extension or fails to complete the work within this time, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of this contract, the (Recipient) may terminate this contract for default. The (Recipient) shall terminate by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of Termination specifying the nature of the default. In this event, the Recipient may take over the work and compete it by contract or otherwise, and may take possession of and use any materials, appliances, and plant on the work site necessary for completing the work. The Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for any damage to the Recipient resulting from the Contractor's refusal or failure to complete the work within specified time, whether or not the Contractor's right to proceed with the work is terminated. This liability includes any increased costs incurred by the Recipient in completing the work. The Contractor's right to proceed shall not be terminated nor the Contractor charged with damages under this clause if- 1. The delay in completing the work arises from unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Examples of such causes include: acts of God, acts of the Recipient, acts of another Contractor in the performance of a contract with the Recipient, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes; and 2. The contractor, within [10] days from the beginning of any delay, notifies the (Recipient) in writing of the causes of delay. If in the judgment of the (Recipient), the delay is excusable, the time for completing the work shall be extended. The judgment of the (Recipient) shall be final and conclusive on the parties, but subject to appeal under the Disputes clauses. If, after termination of the Contractor's right to proceed, it is determined that the Contractor was not in default, or that the delay was excusable, the rights and obligations of the parties will be the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the Recipient. I. Termination for Convenience or Default (Architect and Engineering) The (Recipient) may terminate this contract in whole or in part, for the Recipient's convenience or because of the failure of the Contractor to fulfill the contract obligations. The (Recipient) shall terminate by delivering to the Contractor a Notice of Termination specifying the nature, extent, and effective date of the termination. Upon receipt of the notice, the Contractor shall (1) immediately discontinue all services affected (unless the notice directs otherwise), and (2) deliver to the Contracting Officer all data, drawings, specifications, reports, estimates, summaries, and other information and
Page 42 of 94
materials accumulated in performing this contract, whether completed or in process. If the termination is for the convenience of the Recipient, the Contracting Officer shall make an equitable adjustment in the contract price but shall allow no anticipated profit on unperformed services. If the termination is for failure of the Contractor to fulfill the contract obligations, the Recipient may complete the work by contact or otherwise and the Contractor shall be liable for any additional cost incurred by the Recipient. If, after termination for failure to fulfill contract obligations, it is determined that the Contractor was not in default, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the Recipient. J. Termination for Convenience of Default (Cost-Type Contracts) The (Recipient) may terminate this contract, or any portion of it, by serving a notice or termination on the Contractor. The notice shall state whether the termination is for convenience of the (Recipient) or for the default of the Contractor. If the termination is for default, the notice shall state the manner in which the contractor has failed to perform the requirements of the contract. The Contractor shall account for any property in its possession paid for from funds received from the (Recipient), or property supplied to the Contractor by the (Recipient). If the termination is for default, the (Recipient) may fix the fee, if the contract provides for a fee, to be paid the contractor in proportion to the value, if any, of work performed up to the time of termination. The Contractor shall promptly submit its termination claim to the (Recipient) and the parties shall negotiate the termination settlement to be paid the Contractor. If the termination is for the convenience of the (Recipient), the Contractor shall be paid its contract close-out costs, and a fee, if the contract provided for payment of a fee, in proportion to the work performed up to the time of termination. If, after serving a notice of termination for default, the (Recipient) determines that the Contractor has an excusable reason for not performing, such as strike, fire, flood, events which are not the fault of and are beyond the control of the contractor, the (Recipient), after setting up a new work schedule, may allow the Contractor to continue work, or treat the termination as a termination for convenience. 26.

Applicability to Micro-Purchases: Micro-purchases are defined as those purchases under $10,000. These requirements do not apply to micro-purchases; except for construction contracts over $2,000. Flow Down Requirement: The Federal Privacy Act requirements flow down to each Third Party contractor and their contracts at every tier. Model Clause/Language: The text of the following clause has not been mandated by statute or specific regulation, but has been developed by FTA. Contracts Involving Federal Privacy Act Requirements - The following requirements apply to the Contractor and its employees that administer any system of records on behalf of the Federal Government under any contract: A. The Contractor agrees to comply with, and assures the compliance of its employees with, the information restrictions and other applicable requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. § 552a. Among other things, the Contractor agrees to obtain the express consent of the Federal Government before the Contractor or its employees operate a system of records on behalf of the Federal Government. The Contractor understands that the requirements of the Privacy Act, including the civil and criminal penalties for violation of that Act, apply to those individuals involved, and that failure to comply with the terms of the Privacy Act may result in termination of the underlying contract.
Page 43 of 94
B. The Contractor also agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract to administer any system of records on behalf of the Federal Government financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA. 27. CIVIL RIGHTS REQUIREMENTS 29 U.S.C. § 623, 42 U.S.C. § 2000 42 U.S.C. § 6102, 42 U.S.C. § 12112 42 U.S.C. § 12132, 49 U.S.C. § 5332 29 CFR Part 1630, 41 CFR Parts 60 et seq. Applicability to Contracts: The Civil Rights Requirements apply to all contracts. Applicability to Micro-Purchases: Micro-purchases are defined as those purchases under $10,000. These requirements do not apply to micro-purchases; except for construction contracts over $2,000.

Parts 60 et seq ., (which implement Executive Order No. 11246, "Equal Employment Opportunity," as amended by Executive Order No. 11375, "Amending Executive Order 11246 Relating to Equal Employment Opportunity," 42 U.S.C. § 2000e note), and with any applicable Federal statutes, executive orders, regulations, and Federal policies that may in the future affect construction activities undertaken in the course of the Project. The Contractor agrees to take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, color, creed, national origin, sex, or age. Such action shall include, but not be limited to, the following: employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer, recruitment or recruitment advertising, layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship.

The Contractor also agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA, modified only if necessary to identify the affected parties. 28. BREACHES AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION 2 CFR Part 1201 FTA Circular 4220.1F Applicability to Contracts: All contracts in excess of $250,000 shall contain provisions or conditions which will allow for administrative, contractual, or legal remedies in instances where contractors violate or breach contract terms, and provide for such sanctions and penalties as may be appropriate. This may include provisions for bonding, penalties for late or inadequate performance, retained earnings, liquidated damages or other appropriate measures. Flow Down: The Breaches and Dispute Resolutions requirements flow down to all tiers. Model Clauses/Language: FTA does not prescribe the form or content of such provisions. What provisions are developed will depend on the circumstances and the type of contract. Recipients should consult legal counsel in developing appropriate clauses. The following clauses are examples of provisions from various FTA Third Party contracts. A. Disputes - Disputes arising in the performance of this Contract which are not resolved by agreement of the parties shall be decided in writing by the authorized representative of the Recipient. This decision shall be final and conclusive unless within [ten (10)] days from the date of receipt of its copy, the Contractor mails or otherwise furnishes a written appeal to the Recipient. In connection with any such appeal, the Contractor shall be afforded an opportunity to be heard and to offer evidence in support of its position. The decision of the Recipient shall be binding upon the Contractor and the Contractor shall abide be the decision. B. Performance During Dispute - Unless otherwise directed by (Recipient), Contractor shall continue performance under this Contract while matters in dispute are being resolved. C.

29. PATENT AND RIGHTS IN DATA 2 CFR Part 1201 37 CFR Part 401 49 CFR Part 19 Applicability to Contracts: Patent and rights in data requirements for federally assisted projects ONLY apply to research projects in which FTA finances the purpose of the grant is to finance the development of a product or information. These patent and data rights requirements do not apply to capital projects or operating projects, even though a small portion of the sales price may cover the cost of product development or writing the user's manual. Applicability to Micro-Purchases: Micro-purchases are defined as those purchases under $10,000. These requirements do not apply to micro-purchases; except for construction contracts over $2,000. Flow Down Requirement: The Patent and Rights in Data requirements apply to all contractors and their contracts at every tier. Model Clause/Language: The FTA patent clause is substantially similar to the text of 49 C.F.R. Part 19, Appendix A, Section 5, but the rights in data clause reflects FTA objectives. For patent rights, FTA is governed by Federal law and regulation. For data rights, the text on copyrights is insufficient to meet FTA's purposes for awarding research grants. This model clause, with larger rights as a standard, is proposed with the understanding that this standard could be modified to FTA's needs. CONTRACTS INVOLVING EXPERIMENTAL, DEVELOPMENTAL, OR RESEARCH WORK. A. Rights in Data - This following requirements apply to each contract involving experimental, developmental or research work: 1) The term "subject data" used in this clause means recorded information, whether or not copyrighted, that is delivered or specified to be delivered under the contract. The term includes graphic or pictorial delineation in media such as drawings or photographs; text in specifications or related performance or design-type documents; machine forms such as punched cards, magnetic tape, or computer memory printouts; and information retained in computer memory. Examples include, but are not limited to: computer software, engineering drawings and associated lists, specifications, standards, process sheets, manuals, technical reports, catalog item identifications, and related information. The term "subject data" does not include financial reports, cost analyses, and similar information incidental to contract administration. 2) The following restrictions apply to all subject data first produced in the performance of the contract to which this Attachment has been added: (a) Except for its own internal use, the Purchaser or Contractor may not publish or reproduce subject data in whole or in part, or in any manner or form, nor may the Purchaser or Contractor authorize others to do so, without the written consent of the Federal Government, until such time as the Federal Government may have either released or approved the release of such data to the public; this restriction on publication, however, does not apply to any contract with an academic institution. (b) In accordance with 49 C.F.R. § 18.34 and 49 C.F.R. § 19.36, the Federal Government reserves a royalty-free, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish, or otherwise use, and to authorize others to use, for "Federal Government purposes," any subject data or copyright described in subsections (2)(b)1 and (2)(b)2 of this clause below. As used in the previous sentence, "for Federal Government purposes," means use only for the direct purposes of the Federal Government. Without the copyright owner's consent, the Federal Government may not extend its federal license to any other party. (1) Any subject data developed under that contract, whether or not a copyright has been obtained; and
Page 46 of 94
(2) Any rights of copyright purchased by the Purchaser or Contractor using Federal assistance in whole or in part provided by FTA. (c) When FTA awards Federal assistance for experimental, developmental, or research work, it is FTA's general intention to increase transportation knowledge available to the public, rather than to restrict the benefits resulting from the work to participants in that work. Therefore, unless FTA determines otherwise, the Purchaser and the Contractor performing experimental, developmental, or research work required by the underlying contract to which this Attachment is added agrees to permit FTA to make available to the public, either FTA's license in the copyright to any subject data developed in the course of that contract, or a copy of the subject data first produced under the contract for which a copyright has not been obtained. If the experimental, developmental, or research work, which is the subject of the underlying contract, is not completed for any reason whatsoever, all data developed under that contract shall become subject data as defined in subsection (a) of this clause and shall be delivered as the Federal Government may direct. This subsection (c), however, does not apply to adaptations of automatic data processing equipment or programs for the Purchaser or Contractor's use whose costs are financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA for transportation capital projects. (d) Unless prohibited by state law, upon request by the Federal Government, the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to indemnify, save, and hold harmless the Federal Government, its officers, agents, and employees acting within the scope of their official duties against any liability, including costs and expenses, resulting from any willful or intentional violation by the Purchaser or Contractor of proprietary rights, copyrights, or right of privacy, arising out of the publication, translation, reproduction, delivery, use, or disposition of any data furnished under that contract. Neither the Purchaser nor the Contractor shall be required to indemnify the Federal Government for any such liability arising out of the wrongful act of any employee, official, or agents of the Federal Government. (e) Nothing contained in this clause on rights in data shall imply a license to the Federal Government under any patent or be construed as affecting the scope of any license or other right otherwise granted to the Federal Government under any patent. (f) Data developed by the Purchaser or Contractor and financed entirely without using Federal assistance provided by the Federal Government that has been incorporated into work required by the underlying contract to which this Attachment has been added is exempt from the requirements of subsections (b), (c), and (d) of this clause , provided that the Purchaser or Contractor identifies that data in writing at the time of delivery of the contract work. (g) Unless FTA determines otherwise, the Contractor agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA. 1) Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing, irrespective of the Contractor's status (i.e., a large business, small business, state government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization, institution of higher education, individual, etc.), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention due the Federal Government as described in U.S. Department of Commerce regulations, "Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements," 37 C.F.R. Part 401. 2) The Contractor also agrees to include these requirements in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA. B. Patent Rights - This following requirements apply to each contract involving experimental, developmental, or research work:
Page 47 of 94
1) General - If any invention, improvement, or discovery is conceived or first actually reduced to practice in the course of or under the contract to which this Attachment has been added, and that invention, improvement, or discovery is patentable under the laws of the United States of America or any foreign country, the Purchaser and Contractor agree to take actions necessary to provide immediate notice and a detailed report to the party at a higher tier until FTA is ultimately notified. 2) Unless the Federal Government later makes a contrary determination in writing, irrespective of the Contractor's status (a large business, small business, state government or state instrumentality, local government, nonprofit organization, institution of higher education, individual), the Purchaser and the Contractor agree to take the necessary actions to provide, through FTA, those rights in that invention due the Federal Government as described in U.S. Department of Commerce regulations, "Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements," 37 C.F.R. Part 401. 3) The Contractor also agrees to include the requirements of this clause in each subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA. 30. TRANSIT EMPLOYEE PROTECTIVE ARRANGEMENTS 49 U.S.C. § 5310, § 5311, and § 5333 29 CFR Part 215 Applicability to Contracts: The Transit Employee Protective Provisions apply to each contract for transit operations performed by employees of a Contractor recognized by FTA to be a transit operator. (Because transit operations involve many activities apart from directly driving or operating transit vehicles, FTA determines which activities constitute transit "operations" for purposes of this clause.) Applicability to Micro-Purchases: Micro-purchases are defined as those purchases under $10,000. These requirements do not apply to micro-purchases, except for construction contracts over $2,000. Flow Down Requirement: These provisions are applicable to all contracts and subcontracts at every tier. Model Clause/Language: Since no mandatory language is specified, FTA had developed the following language. Transit Employee Protective Provisions. (1) The Contractor agrees to comply with applicable transit employee protective requirements as follows: (a) General Transit Employee Protective Requirements - To the extent that FTA determines that transit operations are involved, the Contractor agrees to carry out the transit operations work on the underlying contract in compliance with terms and conditions determined by the U.S. Secretary of Labor to be fair and equitable to protect the interests of employees employed under this contract and to meet the employee protective requirements of 49 U.S.C. A 5333(b), and U.S. DOL guidelines at 29 C.F.R. Part 215, and any amendments thereto. These terms and conditions are identified in the letter of certification from the U.S. DOL to FTA applicable to the FTA Recipient's project from which Federal assistance is provided to support work on the underlying contract. The Contractor agrees to carry out that work in compliance with the conditions stated in that U.S. DOL letter. The requirements of this subsection (1) however, do not apply to any contract financed with Federal assistance provided by FTA either for projects for elderly individuals and individuals with disabilities authorized by 49 U.S.C. § 5310(a) or (2) for projects for nonurbanized areas authorized by 49 U.S.C. § 5311. Alternate provisions for those projects are set forth in subsections (b) and (c) of this clause. (b) Transit Employee Protective Requirements for Projects Authorized by 49 U.S.C. § 5310(a)(2) for Elderly Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities - If the contract involves transit operations financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance authorized by 49 U.S.C. § 5310(a)(2), and if the U.S. Secretary of Transportation has determined or determines in the future that the employee protective requirements of 49 U.S.C. § 5333(b) are necessary or appropriate for the state and the public body subrecipient for which work
Page 48 of 94
is performed on the underlying contract, the Contractor agrees to carry out the Project in compliance with the terms and conditions determined by the U.S. Secretary of Labor to meet the requirements of 49 U.S.C. § 5333(b), U.S. DOL guidelines at 29 C.F.R. Part 215, and any amendments thereto. These terms and conditions are identified in the U.S. DOL's letter of certification to FTA, the date of which is set forth Grant Agreement or Cooperative Agreement with the state. The Contractor agrees to perform transit operations in connection with the underlying contract in compliance with the conditions stated in that U.S. DOL letter. (c) Transit Employee Protective Requirements for Projects Authorized by 49 U.S.C.§ 5311 in Nonurbanized Areas - If the contract involves transit operations financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance authorized by 49 U.S.C. § 5311, the Contractor agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of the Special Warranty for the Nonurbanized Area Program agreed to by the U.S. Secretaries of Transportation and Labor, dated May 31, 1979, and the procedures implemented by U.S. DOL or any revision thereto. The Contractor also agrees to include any applicable requirements in each subcontract involving transit operations financed in whole or in part with Federal assistance provided by FTA. 31.

Department/Office: Transit
Item Name: Disposition of Transit Vehicles
Summary:
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Ozaukee County Transit Services (OCTS) acquired four (4) 2025 Ford E-450 cutaway buses in
2025 for use in the Shared Ride Taxi program. The vehicles are numbered internally as 183, 184,
187, and 188. Each vehicle was purchased for $152,548 and was funded with an 80% federal and
20% local funding share.
After approximately one year of operation, staff has determined that the E-450s are not a good
long-term fit for OCTS's demand-response service. The vehicles accommodate up to 14
passengers; however, OCTS does not routinely experience passenger loads requiring this
capacity.
Vehicle utilization also reflects this difference. For example, one of the E-450s has accumulated
approximately 23,000 miles, while Vehicle 185, a smaller Ford Transit Van acquired during the
same 2025 procurement period, had accumulated approximately 80,000 miles as of October 1,
2026.
Although the E-450s are configured to accommodate two wheelchairs, the shorter wheelchair
track configuration makes it difficult to safely and efficiently position two wheelchairs at the
same time, particularly depending on the size and type of mobility devices being used. As a
result, the larger overall vehicle does not provide the accessibility benefit that might otherwise be
expected from a vehicle of this size.
The E-450s also present operational and safety challenges when navigating residential
driveways, business entrances, parking lots, and other confined pickup and drop-off locations
routinely served by the Shared Ride Taxi program. Their larger size and rear tail swing require
additional clearance when maneuvering, and OCTS has experienced more incidents involving
these larger vehicles.
OCTS contacted the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) regarding the potential
disposition of the four vehicles. Because the vehicles have not reached their federally established
useful life, WisDOT recommends transfer to another eligible public or specialized transit
provider as the preferred method of disposition. WisDOT has advised that all four vehicles may
Page 53 of 94
be considered for disposition.
ANALYSIS:
Staff recommends proceeding with the disposition of Vehicles 183, 184, 187, and 188, with
transfer to eligible public or specialized transit providers as the preferred method.
WisDOT will establish the market value of each vehicle based on comparable sales and assist
with outreach to eligible providers. For vehicles that are transferred, the federal interest would
remain with the vehicle. If OCTS is unable to transfer some or all of the vehicles, staff
recommends proceeding with an approved public sale for any remaining vehicles in accordance
with WisDOT requirements.
The proposed disposition would not require OCTS to purchase additional replacement vehicles.
OCTS already has four (4) new replacement vehicles budgeted for 2027 as part of the normal
fleet replacement schedule.
Additionally, due to vehicle backorders and procurement delays, the timing of the 2025 vehicle
procurement resulted in a fleet of 29 vehicles rather than the anticipated 27, creating a two-
vehicle surplus. Four vehicles had previously been identified for retirement. If all four E-450s are
successfully disposed of, OCTS would retain two of those four older vehicles for an additional
year and retire the remaining two as appropriate based on service needs.
This approach would maintain the appropriate fleet size while allowing OCTS to transition away
from vehicles that are not well suited to the operational needs of the Shared Ride Taxi program.
The four E-450 vehicles were originally purchased in 2025 for $152,548 each, for a combined
purchase price of $610,192. The vehicles were funded with an 80% federal and 20% local
funding share. The original local share was approximately $30,510 per vehicle, or $122,038 for
all four vehicles.
The current market value of the vehicles has not yet been established. For an approved transfer,
WisDOT will establish the current market value of each vehicle, and the receiving provider
would pay Ozaukee County the 20% local-share portion of that value. The County would not be
required to repay the federal share. If we conservatively estimate the vehicles are only worth
$80,000 each, then Ozaukee County would be reimbursed $16,000 per vehicle or $64,000 for all
four vehicles.
If a vehicle cannot be transferred and is instead sold before reaching its useful life, WisDOT
would calculate the depreciated value and the County would be required to repay Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) the 80% federal share of that value. If we conservatively estimate the
vehicles are only worth $80,000 each, then Ozaukee County would anticipate selling all four for
$320,000, of which Ozaukee County would retain $64,000 and return $256,000 to the FTA.

Item Name: Aging & Disability Resource Center Memorandum of Understanding
Summary:
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Ozaukee County Transit Service (OCTS) administers Ozaukee County’s Section 85.21 transportation
program, which provides funding for transportation services for older adults and individuals with
disabilities.
The Aging and Disability Resource Center of Ozaukee County (ADRC) coordinates transportation
assistance for eligible older adults and individuals with disabilities. Transportation funded through
this program is provided through the Ozaukee County Shared Ride Taxi program, with funding
applied to eligible rider accounts identified by the ADRC.
The ADRC currently receives $7,200 annually through the Section 85.21 program and has requested
an increase in funding beginning in 2027. The ADRC did not request a specific funding amount.
The attached Memorandum of Understanding formalizes the arrangement between OCTS and the
ADRC and establishes each department’s responsibilities related to the administration, use, and
reporting of Section 85.21 funding.
ANALYSIS:
Staff recommends increasing the annual Section 85.21 funding allocated to the ADRC from $7,200
to up to $10,000 beginning in 2027.
The recommended amount provides additional funding to support eligible transportation needs while
aligning the annual funding level with the amount recommended for the Ozaukee County ADRC
under the Section 85.21 program.
Under the proposed Memorandum of Understanding, the ADRC will identify eligible riders and
provide OCTS with the eligibility, passenger classification, trip purpose, and other information
necessary for Section 85.21 reporting. OCTS will administer the funding through eligible rider
accounts, provide transportation through the Shared Ride Taxi program, monitor expenditures, and
complete required WisDOT reporting.
Funding is subject to the County’s annual Section 85.21 application, available funding, and required
approvals. Unused funding will not carry over into the following calendar year.

Meeting Date: October 22, 2026
Department/Office: Transit
Item Name: Interfaith Caregivers Memorandum of Understanding
Summary:
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Ozaukee County Transit Service (OCTS) administers Ozaukee County’s Section 85.21 transportation
program, which provides funding for transportation services for older adults and individuals with
disabilities.
OCTS has a long-standing partnership with Interfaith Caregivers of Ozaukee County. Interfaith
provides volunteer transportation services that complement Ozaukee County Shared-Ride Taxi by
offering additional assistance. Volunteers may escort individuals from door to door, accompany them
during medical appointments, and remain with them until the appointment is complete before
providing return transportation.
The County has historically supported Interfaith’s transportation program through fuel provided at
County fuel facilities and vehicle maintenance and repairs performed by County staff. When
necessary, approved maintenance, repairs, parts, or other eligible services may be obtained from
outside vendors.
Beginning in 2027, OCTS proposes including Interfaith’s transportation program as a project in the
County’s annual Section 85.21 application to support eligible transportation expenses through
available program funding rather than relying solely on County levy support. The attached
Memorandum of Understanding formalizes the existing fuel, maintenance, and repair arrangement,
establishes an annual funding limit, and defines each party’s responsibilities for eligibility,
recordkeeping, and reporting.
ANALYSIS:
Historically, the County’s annual support for Interfaith has generally ranged from approximately
$3,000 to $5,000. Current-year usage is expected to reach approximately $10,000.
Based on historical usage, current-year costs, and available funding, staff recommends including
Interfaith’s transportation program in the County’s 2027 Section 85.21 application with funding of
up to $10,000 annually. However, Interfaith has requested $15,000. (See attached letter.)
Under the proposed Memorandum of Understanding, Interfaith will be responsible for confirming
participant eligibility, maintaining supporting records, and providing OCTS with quarterly ridership
Page 66 of 94
and operating information required for WisDOT reporting. Funding will support eligible
transportation expenses through the existing fuel, maintenance, and repair arrangement. The annual
limit applies to the entire approved Interfaith vehicle fleet. No funds will be paid directly to
Interfaith.
Funding is subject to the County’s annual Section 85.21 application, available funding, and required
approvals. Transportation costs exceeding the approved annual funding amount will remain the
responsibility of Interfaith unless otherwise approved in writing by OCTS.

Meeting Date: October 22, 2026
Department/Office: Highway Department
Item Name: CTH O Contamination Change Order
Summary:
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In Summer of 2024, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) notified Ozaukee
County and the Village of Saukville that they intended to name us both as Responsible Parties
(RP) for soil contamination at the corner of CTH O (Green Bay Avenue) and East Clay Street.
The site is an old gas station (Tesker) removed in the 1960’s with contamination discovered as
part of a Village of Saukville project in the 1990’s.
In December of 2025, Ozaukee County and the Village of Saukville hired Moraine
Environmental to perform the necessary testing and monitoring to satisfy the WDNR’s
requirements to determine the scope and severity of remaining contamination in the area.
Following Moraine Environmental’s initial round of testing and report (See attached.), they’ve
requested a change order to install an additional three (3) small diameter wells. Two (2) wells
will be used to further define the extent of the contamination and one (1) will be used to assess if
a different Tri-Par contamination plume has comingled with the Tesker site.
ANALYSIS:
In the interest of determining the extents of the contamination and ensuring any
contamination from Tri-Par isn’t affecting the Tesker site, we recommend approval of the
proposed Change Order, which is attached.

RE: Status Report
Former Tesker Gas (Saukville Village ROW)
County Highway O and E. Clay Street
Saukville, WI 53080
FID #246135230 BRRT’s #03-46-005124
Moraine Environmental, Inc. (Moraine) was retained by the Ozaukee County Highway Department and
the Village of Saukville and, to conduct a Subsurface Soil and Groundwater Investigation in the Village of
Saukville at the intersection of E. Green Bay Avenue (CTH “O”) and E. Clay Street, in the area of the
former Henry Tesker gas station, which operated from the 1930s to sometime in the 1960s. A Site
Location Map (Figure 1) is included in Attachment A.
The purpose of this report is to document initial investigative activities on the subject property as well as
in two down-gradient locations in the E. Clay Street right-of-way (ROW). Moraine supervised the
advancement of eight (8) soil probes, and the subsequent conversion of six (6) of the probes into small
diameter groundwater monitoring wells on July 20, 2026.
METHODOLOGY
Subsurface Soil Boring
All soil borings completed were performed using direct push technology. Prior to the beginning of
subsurface work, public underground utilities at the site were identified and marked through the
Wisconsin Diggers Hotline system and by Subsurface Radar Solutions using ground penetrating radar
technology. A continuous core of soil was collected from each boring location using a 2-inch diameter
steel probe rod containing disposable plastic sample liners (5 feet in length). Soil boring equipment was
cleaned/decontaminated prior to conducting the fieldwork and between each boring advancement to
avoid the introduction of contaminants or cross-contamination between boring locations.
Soil Field Screening and Classification
A Moraine representative visually examined and classified the soil samples in general accordance with
the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) and conducted olfactory observations of the soil cores to
detect the obvious presence of contamination.
Page 77 of 94
The cores of soil from each boring location were field screened at consecutive intervals using a
photoionization detector (PID) following PID screening procedures. PID screening provides a qualitative
measure of volatile organic vapors in soils. PID readings greater than 10 instrument units (iu) are
generally considered an indication of contamination for products containing VOC’s. As a PID unit
detects only volatile organic emissions, less volatile contaminants typically do not exhibit elevated PID
readings. The PID readings were used in conjunction with visual, physical, and olfactory observations,
such as soil staining and odors, when evaluating soil conditions.
A Moraine representative maintained a field log documenting sampling activity, general soil conditions
and field screening results. The field logs were used to prepare the soil descriptions on the WDNR soil
boring logs, attached. Soil layers were determined based on field logs and sample observations. The
stratification lines separating the soil layers are considered approximate boundaries; the transitions
between soil types in situ may be gradual in both the horizontal and vertical directions.
Soil Sampling and Analytical Testing
Soil samples selected for laboratory analysis were chosen based on field screening results and the
depths and locations from which they originated. Two soil samples were collected and submitted for
analysis from each of soil probes SP-1 through SP-8. Generally, each probe location had soil samples
collected for analysis from the direct contact zone (upper 4’ of soil column) and where elevated PID
readings were observed or near the water table interface.
The samples were placed in a laboratory-supplied cooler and preserved in accordance with WDNR
guidelines. Samples were submitted to WDNR-certified Pace Analytical for Petroleum Volatile Organic
Compound (PVOC), naphthalene, and lead analysis within appropriate holding times. Analysis for lead
was conducted since the former Tesker Gas Station was in business at the time of and would have
pumped leaded gasoline. Chain of custody procedures were adhered to throughout sample collection,
handling, and laboratory submittal. A copy of the chain of custody is included in the soil laboratory
analytical report, presented in Attachment C.
Moraine compared the laboratory results to the Soil Cleanup Standards set forth in Chapter NR 720
Wisconsin Administrative Code and the WDNR’s soil screening residual contaminant level (RCL)
spreadsheet to evaluate the soil quality at this site. Chapter NR 720 WAC establishes generic RCLs for
specific VOC’s based on the protection of groundwater referred to as the soil to groundwater pathway.
Chapter NR 720 WAC also establishes generic RCLs based on human health risk from direct contact
related to land use, which is classified by the WDNR generally, as either “non-industrial” or “industrial.”
Small Diameter Monitoring Well Installation & Analytical Testing
Six (6) small diameter monitoring wells were installed in soil probes SP-1, SP-2, SP-4, SP-5, SP-7, and SP-
8. The wells were constructed with 1-inch inside diameter PVC well pipes containing 0.01-inch slotted
screen and were also properly sand packed, and bentonite sealed. Moraine collected groundwater
samples from the wells using polyethylene bailers. Moraine has opted to use, cost effective, small
diameter wells during this initial phase of investigation, NR141 wells will be installed as needed later in
the investigation process.
Page 78 of 94
The groundwater samples were placed into appropriate laboratory-supplied containers, preserved in
accordance with WDNR guidelines, and submitted to a WDNR-certified laboratory, Pace Environmental
Sciences (Pace) for analysis within appropriate holding times. Chain of custody procedures were
adhered to throughout sample collection, handling, and laboratory submittal. A copy of the chain of
custody is included in the groundwater laboratory analytical report, presented in Attachment C.
Moraine compared the groundwater laboratory results to standards set forth in Chapter NR 140 WAC to
evaluate the groundwater quality at this site. Chapter NR 140 WAC establishes a groundwater quality
Preventive Action Limit (PAL) and an Enforcement Standard (ES) for specific compounds based on the
protection of human health. The PAL is typically considered to be an indicator of a potential
contamination problem, and the ES is typically considered to be an indicator of a potential human health
risk. Ch. NR 140.10 Table 1 Public Health Groundwater Quality Standards have been used to evaluate
the groundwater quality at this site.
Soil Analytical Results
Generally, subsurface characteristics observed consisted of native sand and silt throughout the
investigated interval at depths from the near surface to 15 feet bgs. Broken limestone, possibly
bedrock, was encountered in soil probes SP-3 at 7.5 feet bgs and SP-4 at 13 feet bgs, resulting in soil
probe refusal. Similar limestone was encountered in several other soil probes at 14.5-15 feet bgs. Soil
boring logs are provided in Attachment D.
PVOCs and/or naphthalene were detected in shallow and deeper soil collected from probes SP-1
through SP-5, with Groundwater Pathway Residual Contaminant Level (RCL) exceedances in soil
collected from SP-1(2’-4’ and 8’-‘10’), in SP-2 (2’-4’), and in SP-4(6’-8’). No PAH or naphthalene Direct
Contact RCL exceedances were detected.
Lead was detected in all of the soil samples, with Groundwater Pathway RCL exceedances observed in
SP-2(2’-4’), SP-3(6’-8’), and SP-6(2’-4’). No lead Direct Contact RCL exceedances were detected.
Groundwater Analytical Results
Groundwater analytical data showed detections in all of the wells, with Preventative Action Level (PAL)
exceedances of PVOCs and/or naphthalene and lead in SD-1, SD-3, SD-4, and SD-5.
The highest concentrations observed were those of wells SD-1 and SD-2, with PVOV and naphthalene
Enforcement Standard (ES) exceedances and lead PAL exceedances. Based on groundwater flow
direction, believed to be southeasterly, toward the Milwaukee River, SD-1 and SD-2 are believed to be
side and up gradient of the former filling station area.
Low-level benzene PAL exceedance was observed in down-gradient SD-7. Petroleum concentrations in
SD-7 and SD-8 were the lowest of all the wells.
Groundwater analytical data is provided in Table 2 in Attachment B. Shallow groundwater was
encountered between four and ten feet bgs, depending on location.
Page 79 of 94
VAPOR INVESTIGATION
Moraine compared soil and groundwater analytical results to WDNR Vapor Intrusion Guidance
Document RR800. Concentrations in soil and groundwater in nearby SP/SD-5 and in soil in SP-6, were
significantly below those where vapor sampling is recommended. As such, Moraine determined vapor
sampling is not warranted at the 125 E. Green Bay Ave Residence at this time. Additionally, Moraine
determined vapor sampling at the 121 and 133 E. Clay Street residences is also unnecessary due to the
low concentrations observed in SD-7 and SD-8.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Soil and groundwater sampling results confirmed a historic gasoline release had occurred in the area of
the former Tesker Gas property and the 125 E. Green Bay Ave property. Based upon results of soil
samples analyzed, the most contaminated soil is on and just west of the area of the former Tesker Gas
Station. The extent of groundwater contamination is not yet defined.
Moraine recommends installation of three (3) additional soil probe/small diameter wells as shown on
Figure 2.1 in Attachment A. Two probes/wells will be installed down and side gradient of SD-1 and will
serve to further define extent and will provide Moraine with data to assess whether vapor intrusion is a
threat to the residence at 1010 E. Clay Street. The third probe/well will be installed up gradient of SD-1
and SD-2 to assess if the groundwater plume has comingled with the up-gradient former Tri-Par plume
and to help assess groundwater contamination extents.
As with soil probes SP-1 through SP-8, soil samples will be collected from each soil probe location and
analyzed for PVOCs and naphthalene, and lead. Each of the three probe locations will then be
converted to a small diameter well and will be subsequently developed and sampled. Monitoring will
include groundwater sampling and laboratory analysis and recording water levels. Moraine will then
survey all of the wells to confirm groundwater flow direction and will determine next steps.
Moraine will prepare and submit a change order for the three additional probes and wells for submittal
and approval to the Ozaukee County Highway Department and the Village of Saukville.
