Water security

Senior

Senior decreed water with priority back to 1887 — a senior priority date under Colorado prior appropriation; what actually conveys, and on what terms, is established by the decrees and title diligence.

Water wells (37)
37 permitted water wells are recorded at or near this parcel (primarily domestic). A permitted well is real, recorded water access from the CO Division of Water Resources — and on unbuilt rural land it is often the gating utility for buildability.

Source: the Colorado Division of Water Resources well-permit registry (CDSS). These are WATER wells (domestic / irrigation / stock), not oil & gas wells. Wells are matched to the parcel by proximity to its centroid, not by surveyed boundary — a well listed here can sit on an adjacent parcel. Descriptive, not legal advice — confirm the permit location, decreed use, and yield with CO DWR before relying on them.

Oil & gas wells

No oil & gas wells within ½ mile of this parcel. Sourced from the Colorado Energy & Carbon Management Commission (ECMC) public registry.
