Water Rights for Lease in Southern Yakima County
Doubletree Ranches, Inc. is offering for lease up to 402 acre-feet per year of groundwater associated with three overlapping water right certificates: G3-00993CWRIS, G4-01647CWRIS, and G4-02194CWRIS. The rights are appurtenant to Yakima County parcels 210729-22001 and 21730-11001, located near Bickleton, Washington. The lease would include physical access to the wells and pumps.
The certificates are supplied by two groundwater wells and have historically been used to irrigate approximately 115 acres. Together, the certificates function as a single water right portfolio, with total annual withdrawals capped at 402 acre-feet per year pursuant to a provision in Certificate G3-00993CWRIS.
Following a 2025 due diligence review confirming the likely extent and historical use of the rights, Doubletree is exploring opportunities to lease water for alternative uses, such as renewable energy development, industrial supply, or dust control. Given nearby wind energy development activity, this portfolio presents a practical option for projects requiring a reliable water supply.
