Population served: 43

Ownership: privately owned
Water source: groundwater (wells)

OTERO ESTATES MHP is one of 1,060 community water systems in Colorado in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 43 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2021; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 40 entries between 1994 and 2021, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2021.

Of the 40, 30 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves inorganic chemicals, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
