City of College Station standing, low SDWIS violation third
104,103 people served (SDWIS) - larger served population (> 3,309). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). UCMR5: middle-third PFAS panel (≤ 4 compounds). Population rank #471 of 29,740 among systems serving 500+.
The verdict
City of College Station is in the lower third by violation count (0; 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 large (104,103; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. No violations are on record in this extract. UCMR5 detected 4 PFAS compounds (middle-third PFAS panel (≤ 4 compounds)).
