September is Preparedness Month | |
 What if today was the day before a disaster? What would you do? How would you get ready?
Preparing for emergency events like tornadoes, flooding, and winter storms requires individuals and families to be self-reliant and ready to face days without utilities such as electricity, water, phone service, access to local businesses such as gas stations and supermarkets, and other needed services. Preparing can start with three important steps:
- Get an emergency supply kit
- Make a plan for what to do in an emergency
- Be informed about emergencies that could happen in your community, and identify sources of information in your community that will be helpful before, during, and after an emergency.
The ReadyWisconsin website has more information on how to make an emergency supply kit on a budget, tips for creating your own emergency plan and commonly asked questions and answers about preparedness. Just go to: http://readywisconsin.wi.gov
ReadyWisconsin is a preparedness program from Wisconsin Emergency Management. |

 Now that grass is growing again, please DO NOT cut or blow grass, leaves, or lawn debris into the street. The debris will clog storm sewer grates and create a potential flood hazard.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping Saukville clean.
We are also asking residents to help with the watering of the Village street-trees. They are still stressed from the drought. Only 5 gallons of water a week is needed for trees younger than 10 years to stay healthy. |
Cross Connection Inspections |  What Is a Cross Connection?
A cross connection is a direct or potential connection between any part of the public water supply system and a source of contamination or pollution. The most common form of cross connection is a garden hose, which is easily connected to the public water supply system and can be used to apply a variety of potentially dangerous substances, including chemicals and fertilizer. Other common cross connections include dishwashers, toilets, pressure washers, boilers, pools, and lawn sprinkler systems.
In order to reduce overall costs for compliance with DNR Regulation NR810.15, the Village of Saukville Water Utility has contracted with Hydro Designs, Inc. (HDI), of New Berlin, Wisconsin to assist in managing our Cross Connection Control program.
HDI will be sending postal notices and will begin to perform initial inspections of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings throughout the Village to detect actual and potential cross connections and make recommendations for the installation of backflow prevention devices or assemblies where necessary. This will help ensure that contaminated or polluted water cannot backflow into clean drinking water. There is no cost for the inspection and each inspection takes less than 45 minutes on average for a business and less than 20 minutes for a home inspection. |
