Text

In order to provide payment for
such water rights for state lands, the state board of land commissioners may agree
that, when any state land for which irrigation is provided is leased or sold, the
lessee or purchaser, as the case may be, shall pay the agreed value therefor, at
such times and in such amounts and in such proportion as may be agreed upon by
the state board of land commissioners. The state board of land commissioners has
power to secure, to any such person, corporation, or irrigation district so furnishing
water for the irrigation of state lands, the payment of the cost of such water rights
upon such lands being leased or sold by the lessee or purchaser thereof. In no case
shall the state board of land commissioners have any power to use any of the
school fund, either principal or interest, for any such purpose.
