SUNLIT HILLS WATER SYSTEM is one of 140 community water systems in New Mexico in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,018 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 67 entries between 1980 and 2026, of which 1 health-based item remains open, alongside 1 other open entry.

Of the 67, 39 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 synthetic organic chemicals, the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
