Surface Water Treatment Rule standing, high-volume SDWIS third

Surface Water Treatment Rule sits in the upper third of this extract by raw violation count (165,477), so the national record is thick enough that system-level lists below are a sample of a much larger compliance trail rather than a near-complete inventory. Load is concentrated: 27.0 violations per affected system (dense load (> 5.8 violations per affected system)), which usually means repeat findings on the same PWSIDs rather than one-off detections spread thin. Health-based share is 41.1% - a material slice of the record is exposure-relevant, with the rest monitoring or reporting. Among 157 indexable contaminants, this page is #12 by violation volume. Utilities listed below are ranked by cumulative violation count for this analyte; pair that with population served to gauge household exposure scale.
