About this file

This is a Colorado Division of Water Resources well permit for the relocation of an existing well. The permit (No. 22197-A) was issued on September 15, 2023, with an expiration date of September 15, 2026, and was extended as of April 30, 2025. The original permit applicant is USA Rio Grande National Forest, with Andrew Kehler serving as the authorized agent. The well is located at 1243 CR 20 South Fork, Colorado 81154, in Rio Grande County on a residential site in the NE 1/4 of the SE 1/4 of Section 9, Township 39 North, Range 3 East (UTM coordinates: Easting 353519.0, Northing 4166906.0, Zone 13, NAD83).

The permitted well use is limited to ordinary household purposes for two single-family dwellings and watering domestic animals, with a maximum pumping rate not to exceed 15 gallons per minute. The well must be constructed no more than 200 feet from the approved location and in compliance with Colorado Water Well Construction Rules (2 CCR 402-2). The old well must be plugged within 91 days of the new well's completion in accordance with applicable rules, and a Well Abandonment Report must be submitted to confirm completion. Return flow from the well must be managed through an individual non-evaporative waste water disposal system that returns water to the same stream system. The permit does not confer a water right and includes standard conditions regarding no material injury to existing water rights. A Well Construction and Yield Estimate Report must be submitted to verify construction before permit expiration.
