Updated Rules and Regulations on Licensing of Water Well Contractors

The Board of Examiners of Water Well Construction and Pump Installation Contractors (Board of Examiners) have jurisdiction over the licensing of water well contractors and over the rules and regulations for all work on wells and pumping equipment associated with water well supply systems. This includes who may contract for or advertise to perform regulated work on wells and pumping equipment.

The following Rules clarify that a person who is not a licensed water well contractor may not contract for construction/installation/repair of wells/pumping equipment/cisterns that are part of water well supply systems. Therefor a person who is not a licensed water well contractor may not engage in "contracting" for work that only a person who has received a license from the Board of Examiners is allowed to perform.

Per Colorado Revised Statute:

37-91-105. Licensing - registration of rigs (1) Every person, before engaging in the business of contracting either for the construction of wells or for the installation of pumping equipment, shall obtain a license for one or more methods of well construction or pump installation from the board and shall secure a registration from the board for each well-drilling or pump-installing rig to be operated or leased by him or his employee.

Per the BOE Admin Rules contracting is defined as:

4.2.8 “Contracting” means undertaking, or offering, bartering, or bargaining to construct a well, install pumping equipment, or install a cistern connected to a water well supply system by any person, firm, corporation, partnership, association or other organization, for another.

The Admin Rules further clarify that:

6.1 License Required - Every individual, before engaging in the business of contracting for and performing either the construction and/or the repair of wells, the installation and/or repair of pumping equipment, or the installation and/or repair of cisterns connected to water well supply systems, must obtain a license for one or more methods of well construction or pump installation from the Board. Individuals who use special equipment or perform limited procedures in well construction, pump installation, or cistern

installation must obtain a special license from the Board prior to engaging in such specialized services.

6.1.4 A license issued by the Board authorizes a person to contract for well construction or pump installation services as specified on the license. A license does not authorize any advertisement for, contracting for, or performing other services for which the contractor is not licensed.
