GUILFORD CORRECTIONAL CENTER is one of 4,942 community water systems in North Carolina in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 150 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2009; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 12 entries between 1992 and 2009, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2009.

Of the 12, 10 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 Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
