After determining the basis for distribution of costs among the landowners, the board of ditch commissioners shall prepare an assessment list which shall show the names of all owners of property, wholly or partly within the watershed of the proposed tax ditch, together with addresses and descriptions of those properties as currently recorded by the board of assessment of the county. The list shall also show, for each property, that portion, expressed in acres, which is within the watershed or drainage area.

The sum of the individual property assessment bases shall be termed the total assessment base which in all cases shall be equal to or greater than the total cost of the proposed tax ditch works of improvement. The assessment list, as modified by the ditch order, described in § 4137 of this title, shall be the basis for all taxes levied under this chapter.
