Greenfield Water District standing, high SDWIS violation third

UCMR5 detected 2 PFAS compounds - lower-third PFAS panel (≤ 2 compounds). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). Health-based share 1% is middle-third health share (≤ 23%). UCMR5: lower-third PFAS panel (≤ 2 compounds). Population rank #18,991 of 29,740 among systems serving 500+.

The verdict

Greenfield Water District sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (213), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is mid-pack at 1,050 (mid served population (≤ 3,309)). Health-based share is 1% (middle-third health share (≤ 23%)). UCMR5 detected 2 PFAS compounds (lower-third PFAS panel (≤ 2 compounds)).
