The Utah Division of Water Rights recently released its 2020 well drilling report. The report notes that despite the pandemic, water well drilling increased by 25% in 2020. A total of 573 new water wells were drilled in 2020. Based on first quarter numbers, the Division expects to see an even bigger increase in 2021. Many well drillers are booked out for weeks or months (which has been confirmed to me by clients who have been attempting to get new wells drilled).
