# Dewatering wells in Barton County, Kansas — 156 records

> The 156 wells recorded for dewatering in Barton County, median depth 30 feet.

## Dewatering wells in Barton County

**156** of the 8,264 WWC-5 records in Barton County — 1.9% — are recorded for dewatering.

### How this group compares

Barton County holds 2.5% of the
6,212 dewatering records in Kansas, while holding
2.6% of the register overall — so this use is
**under-represented** here.

not a water supply at all — a well drilled to lower the water table, usually for construction or a quarry.

*Medians, on the records where the driller reported a figure — never a mean, which a handful of deep irrigation wells would carry away*

| Measurement | Median | 90th percentile | Kansas median |
|---|---|---|---|
| Depth | **30 ft** | 40 ft | 60 ft — shallower here (156 records, 100 %) |
| Static water level | **8.5 ft** | 13 ft | 24 ft — lower here (153 records, 98 %) |
| Estimated yield | **20 gpm** | 25 gpm | 25 gpm — lower here (11 records, 7 %) |

### What stands out among these

The busiest contractor on these records is **Rosencrantz-bemis Enterprises, INC**, named on 88 of them (56.4%), ahead of Clarke Well and Equipment, INC (36) and Kelly's Water Well Service, INC (20). The oldest record here was completed in **1979** and the most recent in 2021, and the deepest well on file reaches **60 feet** — a dewatering well drilled by Clarke Well and Equipment, INC in 1980.

### Plugging records — for dewatering in Barton County

**47** of the 156 records for dewatering in Barton County carry a
plugging report (30.1%), filed on form WWC-5P. The other
**109** do not.

That is **not** a list of abandoned wells, and
this site never calls them that. Kansas defines abandonment by
*use* — a well unused for two years — and nothing in this
register tracks use. What the absence of a plugging report does mean is that
the State has never been told the well was sealed. On the
**28** records here completed before 1995, that is
exactly what a buyer checks. [Why it matters and who
pays](/abandoned.md).

### An unplugged well on land in Barton County?

109 of the 156 records in Barton County have no plugging report on file. If a well on your land is no longer used, Kansas requires it to be plugged and the duty falls on the landowner — with cost-share of up to USD 1,000 per well through the Kansas Department of Agriculture. This site reads the register; it does not drill and it does not plug. Tell us where and we pass the request to licensed Kansas well contractors.

We recommend no contractor and we are nobody's agent. We have no arrangement with any firm today — we are collecting these requests in order to go and find them. [What we do with this](/privacy.md).

### The records

*Dewatering, Barton County — « plugging report » reads *yes* where a WWC-5P was filed and a dash where none was, which is NOT a finding that the well is abandoned. A 0 means the driller reported no figure, not a measurement of zero. The legal description is on the record, never on a page.*
