The verdict

Pratt, City Of lands in the middle third by violation volume (41), large enough for peer comparisons without matching the fleet's heaviest ledgers. Population served is large (6,573; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 44% - most of this ledger is MCL or treatment-technique exceedance. UCMR5 detected 6 PFAS compounds (upper-third PFAS panel (> 4 compounds)).
