SANTA FE WATER SYSTEM (CITY OF) is the fourth largest community water system in New Mexico, serving 90,810 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 14 entries between 2004 and 2026, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.

Of the 14, 11 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 Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
