ARTESIA MUNICIPAL WATER SYSTEM is among the 21 largest community water systems in New Mexico, serving 15,176 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 12 entries between 2002 and 2019, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2019.

Of the 12, 5 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 Groundwater Rule, the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
