Section of the Irrigation Block. Action by the Legislature was asked for in a petition addressed to the Minister of Agriculture signed by over s,even hundred land owners and purchasers who indicated in the petition the area of land to he irrigated by each peti tioner and whether or not water was required for domestic use. 'Section 3 constitutes the District and

Schedule I sets out the lands included in the Dis,tri,ct. The lands of perso.ns who· now have water agreements with the Railway Company are included in the District, and all the obligations of the Com pany to such water users are assumed by the District. The committee which negotiated the agreement on behalf of the land owners and purchasers are constituted the first Board of the District and will hold office for one year when an election will be held. Sections 4 to 6 deal with the con stitution of the Board and with the first election.

Section 7 validates the agreement above referred to which is,

Schedule II to the proposed Act. The principal features of the agreement which are not also set out in the Act are: (

a) The .c.ompany gives 'the Board use of the trunk tele phone line betw€en Calgary and Strathmore. (

e) The Company also agrees to pay the Board on or before May 1st, 1944, as compensation for the assumption by the Board of the obligation to carry out the Company's water agreements, an amount equal to $20.00 per acre of irrigable land included in the water agreements transferred to the Board. (

I) The Board indemnifies the Company against every liability which now exists or may hereafter exist or arise against the Company relating to the undertaking and works or their operation, etc. (

i) The Company waives any claim it might have for damage to the Railway, etc., resulting from seepage which is not due to the negligence of the Board. (

j) The Company indemnifies the Board against liability on bonds heretofore issued by the Railway Company. (

Provision is made for the "arbitration of any dispute as to the compensation, and as to how the Board shall account for it to the Company.

Section 8 transfers the works of the Company to the District and terminates the duties and responsibilities of the Company with respect thereto and transfers them to the Board. By

section 9 the Company transfers to the District all the lands described in

Schedule A to the agreement reserving all mines and minerals.

Section 10 transfers to the Board all subsisting water agreements together with outstanding water rates.

Section 11 provides for the possibility of some water agreements being omitted from the

Schedule to the agree ment.

iii

Section 12- (1) in effect amends agreements for sale of land made by the Company by eliminating the reference to water agreements for which the Board will in future be responsible. Subsection (2) of the same

section transfers to the Board the benefit of reservations and exceptions in favour of the Company giving it the right of entry, etc., to construct ditches contained in the agreements for sale.

Section 13 deals with the powers of the Board over and above powers conferred on Boards by The Irrigation Di,~t ricts Act. 'The new powers include the power to transfer the works or to enter into an agreement for their operation by some other person a.s agent for or jointly with the Board. Power is also given to supply water for domestic purposes to lands within and without the District and to make a charge therefor.

Section 14 applies the Act to the Crown as licenses to divert water granted by the Crown are or may be affected.

Section 15 exempts from every class of taxation lands acquired by the Board on account of seepage damage and lands on which the Board has a statutory easement for seepage under the provisions of The Irrigation Districts Act.

Section 17 deals with the appointment of a General Man ager and his powers and duties and prohibits the Board dismissing or suspending him or altering his remuneration without the approval of the Irrigation Council, and also deals with the remuneration of other employees.

Section 19 requires the bonding of the general manager and certain other employees.

Section 22 authorizes the Board to a.ssess the value of the benefit for domestic purposes of water supplied to any parcel either within or without the District or used by the owner or occupant of a parcel. This benefit may be assessed against the parcel and the provisions of The Irrigation Districts Act as to assessment, etc., shall apply.

The Board is directed to establish a tariff as a basis for estimating the benefit accruing to each parcel and in estab lishing the tariff may differentiate between persons receiv ing water for domestic purposes only and those receiving water for both domestic and irrigation purposes. The charge for domestic purposes is' also made a lien on crops, in the same manner as irrigation rates are now a lien on crops under The Irrigation Districts Act.

Section 24 gives directions to the general manager as to the preparation of the first assessment roll.

Section 26 defines who are entitled to vote.

Section 27 gives the Minister power on receipt of a peti tion within two years to include other lands in the District and also gives him power to correct errors as to inclusion in or exclusion from the District of any parcel.

Section 28 gives the Board power, in certain circum stances, to discontinue water service to a parcel on proper notice.

Section 30 authorizes the Board to accept surrender of any water agreement, and in such a case, the right of the owner to water will depend on the provisions of The I rriga tion Districts Act and this Act.

Section 31 empowers the Board, with the approval of the Council, to pay the expenses incurred by any persons who acted for the water users or the District in the negotiations leading up to the making of the agreement. w.
