# Monitoring/sampling well permits in Douglas County, Colorado — 2,001

> The 2,001 wells permitted for monitoring/sampling in Douglas County. Median depth 40 feet.

## Monitoring/sampling wells in Douglas County

**2,001** of the 22,500 well permits in Douglas County — 8.9% — are decreed for monitoring/sampling.

### How this group compares

Douglas County holds 2.2% of
Colorado’s 91,022 monitoring/sampling permits, while
holding 3.7% of the register overall — so it is
**under-represented** in this
use.

Monitoring/sampling means not a water supply at all — a hole drilled to watch the groundwater. These sit on the same register and are not wells anyone drinks from.

*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 | **40 ft** | 120 ft | 148 ft — shallower here (1,181 permits, 59 %) |
| Yield | **98.4 gpm** | 550 gpm | 10 gpm — higher here (11 permits, 1 %) |
| Static water level | **39 ft** | 200 ft | 58 ft — lower here (490 permits, 24 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**817** of the 2,001 permits decreed for monitoring/sampling in Douglas County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 40.8%. And
**589** expired without one: 29.4%.

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.
