# Municipal well permits in Douglas County, Colorado — 1,698 > The 1,698 wells permitted for municipal in Douglas County. Median depth 1380 feet. ## Municipal wells in Douglas County **1,698** of the 22,500 well permits in Douglas County — 7.5% — are decreed for municipal. ### How this group compares Douglas County holds 18.0% of Colorado’s 9,424 municipal permits, while holding 3.7% of the register overall — so it is **over-represented** in this use. Municipal means a public water supply. *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 | **1380 ft** | 2270 ft | 148 ft — deeper here (308 permits, 18 %) | | Yield | **250 gpm** | 650 gpm | 10 gpm — higher here (179 permits, 11 %) | | Static water level | **440 ft** | 1184 ft | 58 ft — higher here (290 permits, 17 %) | ### What happened to these permits **208** of the 1,698 permits decreed for municipal in Douglas County ended with a well the Division was told about — 12.2%. And **618** expired without one: 36.4%. 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.
