WATER LEVELS IN THE DENVER BASIN <br />BEDROCK AQUIFERS <br />2009 <br />This report contains basic data concerning the depth to ground water and elevation <br />of the occurrence of ground water in the four bedrock aquifers of the Denver Basin <br />during the fall of 2008 and spring of 2009. Data was obtained for a total of 201 wells <br />for this report. The report contains data from these wells as well as other wells that <br />are part of this monitoring effort, but for which data were not obtained in 2009. <br />Historic data for all wells which are part of this monitoring effort are included in the <br />report. Wells without new data in 10 years have been removed. <br />Most of the water level measurements in this year's report were obtained by Dave <br />Dzurovchin, Elizabeth Pottorff and Ivone Cruz. Nine new cooperating water districts <br />provided data to this report. Personnel from various water districts and <br />municipalities also provided water level data for this report, including some data <br />which were lacking from previous years. The Division of Water Resources <br />requested water level information from some districts and municipalities that did not <br />respond. The Division of Water Resources will continue to request this information <br />on an annual basis, and appreciates the cooperation of the many entities that do <br />provide water level information. <br />Included in this report is a summary of the Denver Basin geology with generalized <br />aquifer maps and cross-sections. The summary will also be included in future <br />reports. <br />Copies of this report are made available to well owners and participating entities <br />free of charge. Additional copies may be obtained from the Colorado Division of <br />Water Resources, Records Section, 1313 Sherman Street, Room 818, Denver CO <br />80203, or by phone at 303-866-3581 or 303-866-3447. <br />
