EL MORO MHP is one of 4,942 community water systems in North Carolina in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 25 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2001; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 14 entries between 1980 and 1999, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1999.
