# Water wells in Trego County, Kansas — 980 WWC-5 records > 980 water well records in Trego County. The median well is 78 feet deep. Who drilled them, how deep, and which ones have no plugging report on file. ## Water wells in Trego County **980** WWC-5 records — 0.3% of the Kansas register. The median well here is **78 feet** deep, against 60 feet statewide. ### How deep people drill in Trego County This is what a buyer or a builder actually wants, and the Survey does not publish it as a figure you can look up. The numbers below are medians over the records where a figure was reported — a mean would be carried away by a few deep irrigation wells. *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 | **78 ft** | 122 ft | 60 ft — deeper here (972 records, 99 %) | | Static water level | **50 ft** | 82.1 ft | 24 ft — higher here (845 records, 86 %) | | Estimated yield | **20 gpm** | 60 gpm | 25 gpm — lower here (451 records, 46 %) | ### What the water is used for | Water use | Records | Share | |---|---|---| | [Domestic](/county/trego/domestic.md) | 409 | 41.7% | | [Monitoring well/observation/piezometer](/county/trego/monitoring-well-observation-piezometer.md) | 238 | 24.3% | | [Domestic, Livestock](/county/trego/domestic-livestock.md) | 150 | 15.3% | | [Irrigation](/use/irrigation.md) | 52 | 5.3% | | [Oil Field Water Supply](/use/oil-field-water-supply.md) | 27 | 2.8% | | [Public Water Supply](/use/public-water-supply.md) | 24 | 2.4% | | [Test hole/well](/use/test-hole-well.md) | 17 | 1.7% | | Feedlot | 14 | 1.4% | | [Domestic, Lawn and Garden](/use/domestic-lawn-and-garden.md) | 10 | 1.0% | | Test Hole, Cased | 10 | 1.0% | | Other | 9 | 0.9% | | Industrial | 5 | 0.5% | ### Wells tied to a water right **70** records in Trego County carry a DWR appropriation number — 7.1%, against 11.0% statewide. A well permit and a water right are separate instruments in Kansas, and the appropriation number is the thread back to the Division of Water Resources. ### What stands out in Trego County The busiest contractor on these records is **Jay C. Woofter Pump & Well, INC**, named on 86 of them (8.8%), ahead of Geocore Services INC (79) and John E. Luea Water Well Drilling (77). The oldest record here was completed in **1974** and the most recent in 2026, and the deepest well on file reaches **971 feet** — a monitoring well/observation/piezometer well drilled by Clarke Well and Equipment, INC in 1994. ### Plugging records — in Trego County **209** of the 980 records in Trego County carry a plugging report (21.3%), filed on form WWC-5P. The other **771** 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 **272** records here completed before 1995, that is exactly what a buyer checks.

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). ### Records in Trego County *Trego 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.* | WWC-5 | Drilled by | Use | Depth (ft) | Yield (gpm) | Year | Plugging report | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | [1057213899](/search.md) | Kp
