High Plains / Ogallala

Effectively non-recharging in eastern Colorado; declines are storage depletion, a separate ledger line.

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

44 measurements from 2005-07-14 to 2022-11-08. Most recent water-level elevation 5810.49 ft, 56.97 ft below ground.

Over the record the level is no trend at -0.01 ft per decade (p = 0.9657, n = 44). 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.
