There are two more things I want to share with you about water in Colorado. The first is that
the Colorado
Division of Water Resources has a lot more information. It is also
the "Office of the State Engineer" that "administers water
rights, issues water well permits, represents Colorado in interstate water
compact proceedings, monitors stream flow and water use, approves construction
and repair of dams and performs dam safety inspections, issues licenses for
well drillers and assures the safe and proper construction of water wells, and
maintains numerous databases of Colorado water information."
The second thing is that there are attorneys in Colorado who specialize
in water rights and uses. If you are buying land that needs irrigation or has a
well, you might want to get help with it. If you go to the Colorado State Bar Association directory
and look up "Water Law," attorneys are listed.
