WATER CODE
SECTION 1800-1801
1800. If it appears to the board that the full capacity of the
works built or constructed, or being built or constructed, under an
appropriation of water under the Water Commission Act or this code,
will not develop the full capacity of the stream at that point, and
that the public good requires it, and the board specifically so finds
after investigation and hearing of the persons interested, the board
may permit any person to repair, improve, add to, supplement, or
enlarge, at his own expense, any works already so built or
constructed or in process of being so built or constructed under the
provisions of this division, and to use the works jointly with the
owners thereof.
1801. The repairing, improving, adding to, supplementing, or
enlarging of works under this article, shall not materially interfere
with the proper use thereof by the owner of the works nor materially
injure the works.
