Text
Notwithstanding section 61-05-02, an irrigation district may not be created if the primary
purpose of the district is to provide drainage benefits to residents of the district. A drainage
project proposed, undertaken, approved, or subject to assessment by an irrigation district also is
subject to the permit requirements under chapter 61-32. Drainage benefits provided by an
irrigation district may not impact the authority of a water resource board to assess for drainage
projects under chapter 61-16.1.
