Tract 349 Mutual Water Co. standing, low SDWIS violation third

8,700 people served (SDWIS) - larger served population (> 3,309). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). Health-based share 14% is middle-third health share (≤ 23%). UCMR5: middle-third PFAS panel (≤ 4 compounds). Population rank #5,261 of 29,740 among systems serving 500+.

The verdict

Tract 349 Mutual Water Co. is in the lower third by violation count (14; lower-third violation load (≤ 21 violations)). A low count does not mean the system is unmonitored - monitoring and reporting violations still appear in SDWIS. Population served is large (8,700; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 14% (middle-third health share (≤ 23%)). UCMR5 detected 4 PFAS compounds (middle-third PFAS panel (≤ 4 compounds)).
