THE HIGHLAND MOORS (WELL NO 2) is one of 4,942 community water systems in North Carolina in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 30 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2004; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 30 entries between 1999 and 2004, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2004.

Of the 30, 23 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 the Total Coliform Rules, the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule, and inorganic chemicals.
