What stands out among these

The oldest record here was completed in 1975 and the most recent in 2026, and the deepest well on file reaches 300 feet — a domestic, livestock well drilled by Woofter Pump & Well, Inc. #881 in 2020.

Plugging records — for domestic, livestock in Rawlins County

11 of the 206 records for domestic, livestock in Rawlins County carry a plugging report (5.3%), filed on form WWC-5P. The other 195 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 38 records here completed before 1995, that is exactly what a buyer checks. Why it matters and who pays.
