TOBACCO BRANCH VILLAGE is one of 4,942 community water systems in North Carolina in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 163 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 15 entries between 1990 and 1993, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1993.
All 15 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 Lead and Copper Rule, and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
