The verdict
Florence Twp W Dept sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (116), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is large (11,214; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 2% (middle-third health share (≤ 23%)). UCMR5 detected 8 PFAS compounds (upper-third PFAS panel (> 4 compounds)).
