I bought a third of an acre of land from BLM with a well in trespass. Does my patent include the water rights. Can I just seal the well or disconnect it? The neighbor has trespassed on this land for many years. Adverse possession laws do not apply to government land. I made the purchase in 2011. Grandfathering does not apply.
The people I bought my adjoining property from did purchase the water rights to my existing well because of trespass and claim jumping issues with this same person. I did change the ownership paperwork. This person continually tries to take patented land by adverse possession. Normally a disclosure is required for a well in property transfer. This all relates to my previous posts in location certificates & this person causing the BLM to remonument 60 patented mining claimed incorrectly. I can't find anything related to trespass on the Colorado Water Resource site. -------------------- Warm Regards,

You bought land from the blm?
If it is patented, it isn't "government land" it is yours. Your neighbors bought water rights (from you?) But your asking if you own water rights? Too many unanswered questions to give an informed response. -------------------- Find Colorado Prospector on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/170314493176558
