The system's federal compliance record contains 195 total violations, with 195 classified as health-based (MCL exceedances or treatment-technique failures). 4 distinct contaminants have been cited, including Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM), Chloroform, Haloacetic Acids (HAA5). Recorded violations span 2004–2024.

A historical violation does not necessarily describe current water quality, systems must notify customers and remediate, and monitoring-type violations often reflect reporting lapses rather than contamination. The most authoritative real-time source is the utility's annual Consumer Confidence Report. For enforcement history and corrective-action orders, consult EPA ECHO and the New Mexico state drinking-water program's public portal.
