# Domestic well permits in Washington County, Colorado — 2,080

> The 2,080 wells permitted for domestic in Washington County. Median depth 110 feet.

## Domestic wells in Washington County

**2,080** of the 5,722 well permits in Washington County — 36.4% — are decreed for domestic.

### How this group compares

Washington County holds 0.9% of
Colorado’s 243,096 domestic permits, while
holding 1.0% of the register overall — so it is
**under-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 | **110 ft** | 300 ft | 148 ft — shallower here (1,564 permits, 75 %) |
| Yield | **15 gpm** | 20 gpm | 10 gpm — higher here (465 permits, 22 %) |
| Static water level | **72 ft** | 220 ft | 58 ft — higher here (1,245 permits, 60 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**1,382** of the 2,080 permits decreed for domestic in Washington County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 66.4%. And
**162** expired without one: 7.8%.

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.
