Denver Basin bedrock

Confined sandstone aquifer; negligible human-timescale recharge — pumping is one-way storage mining.

Because this aquifer does not recharge on a human timescale, a decline here is storage being removed, not a stream being short. It is kept out of the stream-depletion math for that reason.

Water-level record

81 measurements from 2005-07-13 to 2023-05-03. Most recent water-level elevation 6280.18 ft, 469.82 ft below ground.

Over the record the level is increasing at 75.99 ft per decade (p = 0.0, n = 81). Mann–Kendall with the Hamed–Rao autocorrelation correction, on water-level elevation; rising elevation means more water.

What this page is not

Monitoring records are irregular: measurements cluster where somebody chose to look, so a trend describes this well's record, not the aquifer as a whole. Levels are DWR's published measurements, unedited. A trend here is not a prediction, and it is not a determination about anyone's water right.
