(a) The lessees of the various sections will be required, at their own cost, to keep all drains and races on their respective sections clear and free from weeds or obstructions of any kind likely to impede the natural flow of the water.

(b) The Crown reserves the right for the Commissioner of Crown Lands or any person authorized by him to enter upon any of the sections for the purpose of constructing fresh drains, or reopening, deepening, or dealing in any way whatsoever with drains now constructed, and to charge the cost of such work to the lessee of the section on which such work is done; such cost to be added to the capital value of the lease affected, and interest to be charged thereon at the rate of five (5) per cent. per annum.
