Details 

The DNR will hold an informational hearing to reissue a Wisconsin pollutant discharge elimination system (wpdes) permit no.wi-0028924-10-0.

This pertains to a permit reissuance for Village of Siren, located at Nyberg Road, Siren, Wisconsin with a discharge to an unnamed wetland in the Clam River Watershed in the St. Croix River Basin in Burnett County. The Village of Siren wastewater treatment facility serves a population of approximately 773 with no significant industrial contributors. The annual average design flow is 195,000 gallons per day with actual flows averaging 81,000 gallons per day over the past five years (January 2016 – December 2020). Treatment consists of two aerated lagoons and a rotating biological contact unit (RBC). The proposed new permit includes changes from the previous permit including a proposed phosphorus variance: The department has determined that a water quality-based effluent limitation (WQBEL) for phosphorus is needed in this permit to protect water quality.
