This report represents the results of water level measuremenfs of wells in the Losf Creek <br />Designa#ed Basin made during the month of March 2000. This project was done in cooperation <br />with the Lost Creek Ground Water Management District and local wel! owners. Funding for this <br />project was supplied in part from well permi# fees collected and managed by the �ffice of the <br />State Engineer as a result of the passage of Senate Bill 24� during the '1987 legislative session. <br />Seventeen of the 21 monitoring wells in the basin were measured. �f these, fifteen <br />showed water levels rises, one showed no. changes and one showed a decline of �.45 feet. The <br />a�erage of the fifteen rises was 1.48 feet. The a�erage of ali wells was a rise of 1.28 feet. Last <br />year the basin a�erage was a decline of 0.9 feet. Overall the water levef trend for the basin has <br />been an increase since the mid 197Q's. ln one instance, water is presently at the ground su�face. <br />In several areas, ground water is within three feet of the surFace. <br />Tabular and graphical data are presented for each well for the entire period of record. At least <br />one of the wells dates back to #he 193�'s. <br />Copies of this report are being made a�ailable to well owners for their assistance in this <br />project. Additional repvrts are available from the �ffrce of the State Engineer, 1313 Sherman <br />Street, Room 81 S, Den�er, Colorado 80203. <br />
