What stands out among these

The busiest contractor on these records is Geotechnical Services, INC, named on 64 of them (10.6%), ahead of Larsen and Associates, INC (48) and Geocore Services INC (36). The oldest record here was completed in 1976 and the most recent in 2026, and the deepest well on file reaches 220.6 feet — a monitoring well/observation/piezometer well drilled by Environmental Priority Service, INC in 2018.

Plugging records — for monitoring well/observation/piezometer in Kingman County

224 of the 603 records for monitoring well/observation/piezometer in Kingman County carry a plugging report (37.1%), filed on form WWC-5P. The other 379 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 89 records here completed before 1995, that is exactly what a buyer checks. Why it matters and who pays.

Who drilled them

An unplugged well on land in Kingman County?

379 of the 603 records in Kingman 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.
