Well Drillers in Huachuca City, Arizona

Three licensed well drilling contractors serve the Huachuca City area in southeastern Cochise County.

Drilling Conditions in the Huachuca Area

San Pedro Valley Alluvial Aquifer

The San Pedro River corridor contains a shallow alluvial aquifer in sand and gravel deposits. This is the easier, cheaper drilling environment in the area:

• Typical depth: 150–350 feet
• Yield: Generally adequate for residential use; monitor for water table trends in the area given ongoing pumping pressures
• Special consideration: San Pedro Valley wells are hydraulically connected to river baseflow. Pumping from this zone can affect the ecologically significant river during dry periods.

Mountain Front Fractured Rock

The Huachuca Mountains rise sharply to the west. Properties on the mountain front or in the foothills encounter granite and metamorphic rock relatively quickly:

• Typical depth: 200–500 feet through fractured crystalline rock
• Yield: Variable depending on fracture zones intersected
• Per-foot rate: $60–$100/foot in hard rock

Fort Huachuca Vicinity

Areas near Fort Huachuca have been carefully studied due to the base’s large water demands. ADWR data for this area is particularly rich, giving local drillers good historical well yield and depth information to work from.
