# Domestic well permits in Huerfano County, Colorado — 2,606

> The 2,606 wells permitted for domestic in Huerfano County. Median depth 180 feet.

## Domestic wells in Huerfano County

**2,606** of the 4,190 well permits in Huerfano County — 62.2% — are decreed for domestic.

### How this group compares

Huerfano County holds 1.1% of
Colorado’s 243,096 domestic permits, while
holding 0.7% of the register overall — so it is
**over-represented** in this
use.

Domestic means household water, and usually a little more — the commonest decreed use in Colorado by a wide margin.

*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 | **180 ft** | 640 ft | 148 ft — deeper here (1,672 permits, 64 %) |
| Yield | **8 gpm** | 15 gpm | 10 gpm — lower here (573 permits, 22 %) |
| Static water level | **60 ft** | 375 ft | 58 ft — higher here (1,343 permits, 52 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**1,497** of the 2,606 permits decreed for domestic in Huerfano County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 57.4%. And
**634** expired without one: 24.3%.

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.
