# Commercial well permits in Elbert County, Colorado — 2,769

> The 2,769 wells permitted for commercial in Elbert County. Median depth 415 feet.

## Commercial wells in Elbert County

**2,769** of the 17,636 well permits in Elbert County — 15.7% — are decreed for commercial.

### How this group compares

Elbert County holds 12.4% of
Colorado’s 22,356 commercial permits, while
holding 2.9% of the register overall — so it is
**over-represented** in this
use.

Commercial means water for a business.

*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 | **415 ft** | 1032 ft | 148 ft — deeper here (201 permits, 7 %) |
| Yield | **15 gpm** | 50 gpm | 10 gpm — higher here (159 permits, 6 %) |
| Static water level | **175 ft** | 550 ft | 58 ft — higher here (191 permits, 7 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**173** of the 2,769 permits decreed for commercial in Elbert County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 6.2%. And
**54** expired without one: 2.0%.

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.
