Craigsville Psd standing, mid SDWIS violation third
23% of 53 recorded violations are health-based - upper-third health share (> 23%). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). Health-based share 23% is upper-third health share (> 23%). UCMR5: UCMR5 tested, none detected. Population rank #7,757 of 29,740 among systems serving 500+.
The verdict
Craigsville Psd lands in the middle third by violation volume (53), large enough for peer comparisons without matching the fleet's heaviest ledgers. Population served is large (4,997; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 23% - most of this ledger is MCL or treatment-technique exceedance. UCMR5 tested this system and reported no PFAS above the minimum reporting level.
