Northern Trails Dental standing, low SDWIS violation third
28 people served (SDWIS) - smaller served population (≤ 999). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort).
The verdict
Northern Trails Dental is in the lower third by violation count (0; 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 smaller (28; smaller served population (≤ 999)), so each violation row represents a compact service footprint. No violations are on record in this extract. No UCMR5 PFAS test appears for this system in this extract.

Northern Trails Dental plotted against 29 peer public water systems (500+ people served), by total violation count (x) and the share of those violations that are health-based (y). The crosshair sits at this sample's own median on each axis. A high violation count does not automatically mean a serious record: most monitoring and reporting violations are minor, not health-based.
