The verdict

Gibsonville, Town Of sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (154), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is large (8,920; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 31% - most of this ledger is MCL or treatment-technique exceedance. UCMR5 detected 2 PFAS compounds (lower-third PFAS panel (≤ 2 compounds)).
