OROGRANDE MDWCA is one of 667 community water systems in New Mexico in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 110 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 9 entries between 2007 and 2022, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2022.
Of the 9, 7 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 Lead and Copper Rule, the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
