The verdict
Sandia Resort & Casino lands in the middle third by violation volume (35), large enough for peer comparisons without matching the fleet's heaviest ledgers. Population served is large (15,000; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 11% (middle-third health share (≤ 23%)). UCMR5 tested this system and reported no PFAS above the minimum reporting level.
