§ 60-06-04 — Compensation for right, privilege, and easement - Notice to applicant

In case the sum tendered under section 60-06-03 is not accepted and the parties cannot
agree upon the amount to pay for such right, privilege, and easement, the same shall be
ascertained, assessed, and determined by proceedings in the district court of the county in
which the station or siding at which the right, privilege, and easement sought is situated. Such
court at all times shall be deemed open and in session for the purposes of this chapter. Any
person, firm, corporation, or limited liability company to whom application is made for the right to
erect and maintain an elevator or warehouse under the provisions of this chapter, within ten
days after the receipt of the application, shall notify the applicant in writing of the acceptance or
rejection of the amount offered as compensation for the right, privilege, and easement sought to
be acquired. Failure to notify the applicant within such time shall be deemed an acceptance of
said amount but whether it is accepted or not, the applicant for the site shall be deemed to have
acquired the right, privilege, and easement asked for.
