As of 2026-07-27, DWR Water Rights Net Amounts. Absolute rights are decreed for water already put to use; conditional rights hold a place in line for use not yet completed. Amounts are shown exactly as the state records them. 32 additional rights recorded only as alternate-point/exchange (APEX) net amounts are not shown in this table. 2 rights shown also carry APEX amounts that are not displayed.

Water-right lineage

This timeline puts WDID 0500526’s decreed rights (Highland Ditch) — the same rights as the portfolio above — in chronological order by appropriation date (oldest first), grouped by decade. It reflects DWR’s current net-amounts tabulation, not a complete decree history: intermediate decrees, changes, and abandonment proceedings exist only in the underlying court case files. It is not a title opinion and not a complete chain of title.

The parcels are mapped by the State of Colorado, not by the company and not by DitchBook. The state's mapping for this company includes parcels the state also links to a groundwater (well) supply; parcels the state maps to this company's structures together with other structures; parcels the state maps to this company's structures alone. Where parcels are shared with other structures or linked to a well, the acres shown are not all served by this company's ditch alone. How this page is built.

Footprint: state-mapped irrigated parcels for WDID 0500526, 2020 snapshot, from CDSS Irrigated Lands. The dashed outline is a service-area layer (vintage 2005) shown for context only — it is not used for any figure on this page; source: CDSS Div1_Canals package, Div1_Ditch_Service_Area_2005. 43 small parcels totaling about 170.4 acres are too small to draw at this map's simplification level and are not shown; the acreage figure includes them. The solid line is this company's ditch/canal alignment — USGS National Hydrography Dataset (hydro.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/nhd/MapServer/6), name-matched against DWR structure/company name and reviewed by DitchBook as of 2026-08-07 — mapping-grade, not a survey.

2026 (partial water year) 3,414.1 partial water year

As of 2026-07-27, DWR diversion records for WDID 0500526. Annual values follow the DWR water year (November–October). Years marked provisional are DWR's own provisional records — the state has not finalized them, and they are drawn with a dashed outline above. All other years are published records. Water year 2026 is partial and will change as DWR records are updated. A diversion record is what the state's records show ran through the headgate; it is not a share, an entitlement, or a company allocation. How this page is built.

Public notice activity

  • Lost certificate
    — A 2026 public notice reported a demand for a duplicate or replacement share certificate. Greeley Tribune, Public Notice Colorado record 178204

    This dated notice is evidence that a replacement demand was published, not proof of current ownership, share validity or value, transfer completion, or the company's present status.

  • Annual meeting
    — A 2026 public notice announced the company's annual stockholders meeting. Longmont Times-Call, Public Notice Colorado record 164080

    This dated notice is evidence of the announced meeting, not a current meeting schedule, current officer roster, or proof the meeting occurred as planned.

DitchBook publishes only human-reviewed notice events with a source date, page or record locator, URL, document hash, and explicit limitation. Discovery hits that are fuzzy, ambiguous, or privacy-sensitive stay out of public company pages. Coverage and methods.

DitchBook is not affiliated with Highland Ditch Company. This page is a public-record profile compiled from Colorado Secretary of State and public water-district data.

A mutual ditch or reservoir company is a nonprofit corporation formed under Colorado law — most commonly C.R.S. Title 7, Article 42 — so that landowners who share an irrigation ditch, canal, or reservoir can jointly own and operate it. Instead of the water right belonging to a single person, shares in the company represent each owner's proportional claim, and the company's board and secretary keep the ledger, run assessments for maintenance, and issue certificates the way any small corporation would. Many of these companies have operated continuously since the 1880s, run entirely by volunteer officers who inherit the books from whoever kept them before.

Buying or selling land with shares in Highland Ditch Company?

Ditch shares are corporate stock — they don't transfer with the deed, and under C.R.S. § 7-42-104 unpaid assessments follow the shares to the new owner as a lien. The plain-English walkthrough — including what the standard Colorado contract does and doesn't protect — is at Ditch shares at closing on Water Rights Colorado, a guide site from DitchBook's operator.
