The Village received results from the PILOT study done on Well #1 and Well #2. It was determined the filter system similar to the one installed on Well #3 will sufficiently remove manganese to levels below the EPA standard. The Village Board directed the engineer to submit an intent to apply for the WI DNR Safe Drinking Water Program and submit an estimate for the cost of a preliminary engineering report. Updates will continue to be provided in these quarterly notices. The fill station is accessible Monday through Friday 8-4:30 via the main Village Office door. Water test kits are available at the Village Office or Village Shop. These kits are sent to Commercial Testing Labs and for $14 can test the levels of manganese in your drinking water. |
