Sallisaw standing, mid SDWIS violation third
38% of 60 recorded violations are health-based - upper-third health share (> 23%). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). Health-based share 38% is upper-third health share (> 23%). UCMR5: UCMR5 tested, none detected. Population rank #5,349 of 29,740 among systems serving 500+.
The verdict
Sallisaw lands in the middle third by violation volume (60), large enough for peer comparisons without matching the fleet's heaviest ledgers. Population served is large (8,510; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 38% - most of this ledger is MCL or treatment-technique exceedance. UCMR5 tested this system and reported no PFAS above the minimum reporting level.
