The verdict
Cooper Twp Municipal Auth sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (520), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is large (3,700; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is only 0% - almost all of this trail is monitoring or reporting. UCMR5 tested this system and reported no PFAS above the minimum reporting level.
