# Irrigation well permits in Baca County, Colorado — 2,904 > The 2,904 wells permitted for irrigation in Baca County. Median depth 326 feet. ## Irrigation wells in Baca County **2,904** of the 5,424 well permits in Baca County — 53.5% — are decreed for irrigation. ### How this group compares Baca County holds 6.1% of Colorado’s 47,689 irrigation permits, while holding 0.9% of the register overall — so it is **over-represented** in this use. Irrigation means watering land, at the volume the permit allows. *Medians, on the permits where the Division was told — never a mean, which a few industrial wells would carry away* | Measurement | Median | 90th percentile | Colorado median | |---|---|---|---| | Depth | **326 ft** | 545 ft | 148 ft — deeper here (1,494 permits, 51 %) | | Yield | **800 gpm** | 1600 gpm | 10 gpm — higher here (718 permits, 25 %) | | Static water level | **112 ft** | 220 ft | 58 ft — higher here (1,206 permits, 42 %) | ### What happened to these permits **163** of the 2,904 permits decreed for irrigation in Baca County ended with a well the Division was told about — 5.6%. And **615** expired without one: 21.2%. An expired permit is the trap in a rural sale. A seller can produce a permit that lapsed years ago, and a permit is not a water right — the two are separate, and a purchase turns on both.
