FOr Notifications

Sewer Plant Bypass Notification : Village of Orfordville 4/18/2026

This is a Public Notification of a Treatment Plant Overflow as required by NR210.21(5). Due to recent heavy rains and saturated conditions on the evening of 4/17/2026 the Orfordville WWTP made the decision to bypass approximately 45,000 gallons of raw in-fluent into Swan Creek that sits adjacent to the facility. The decision was made to ensure there was no irreparable damage to the facility or it's equipment. The bypass last approximately 3 hours from 8:30pm to 11:30 pm the evening of the 17th.  Due to the duration and location of the bypass little public health or environmental impact should be expected. 

Brush Site and Fall Leaf Pickup

The Village of Orfordville, Wisconsin's yard waste site is located Next to the Village Wastewater Treatment Plant on West Brodhead Street.  

1. This site is Only for residents that live in the Village limits of the Village of Orfordville   While we like to be neighborly, we cannot afford to pay to process yard waste for people that live outside of the Village.  It is very costly to have this service, and the residents in the Village pay for it with their tax dollars.  Residents outside of the Village limits do not contribute to the cost.  In a nutshell….if you do not get a tax bill from the Village of Orfordville, the site is not available to you. 

2. Please empty your own debris and take the bag with you when you leave, no not leave the bag at the brush site.

3. Yard waste and brush are the only items that can be left at the site.   For some reason, people like to hide other items in the piles. 

4. Residents in the Village of Orfordville are provided with Bulk Pick Up Service the first Friday of every month, the items not allowed at the brush site should be put to the curb for bulk pick up.

5. This brush site does have cameras for review of violations. 

6. This yard site is open for the season from 7am -8pm as of March 23, 2026.
