Lost Sea, Inc standing, low SDWIS violation third
700 people served (SDWIS) - smaller served population (≤ 999). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). Health-based share 19% is middle-third health share (≤ 23%). Population rank #24,455 of 29,740 among systems serving 500+.
The verdict
Lost Sea, Inc is in the lower third by violation count (21; lower-third violation load (≤ 21 violations)). A low count does not mean the system is unmonitored - monitoring and reporting violations still appear in SDWIS. Population served is smaller (700; smaller served population (≤ 999)), so each violation row represents a compact service footprint. Health-based share is 19% (middle-third health share (≤ 23%)). No UCMR5 PFAS test appears for this system in this extract.
