The verdict

Stephens Regional Sud sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (80), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is large (4,809; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 83% - most of this ledger is MCL or treatment-technique exceedance. No UCMR5 PFAS test appears for this system in this extract.
