Licenses for companies and individuals who construct wells, install, repair, or service pumps in and for wells

The Well Permits Branch is responsible for managing and issuing well construction and use permits for wells that withdraw 50,000 gallons or less of water daily. That responsibility includes conducting inspections of wells, licensing companies and individuals who construct wells and install and repair or service pumps in and for wells, and maintaining a database on the construction and status of all wells for which a well construction or use permit has been issued.
