    (b) The Grantee is to operate and maintain the Dam in accordance with all consents given in these regards as a “Local work” (within the meaning of those words in section 2 of the Public Works Act) and is to otherwise comply with all statutes, bylaws, codes and regulations relating to the Dam and the Easement Area.

  4. The Grantee shall have the right to discharge water on to the Easement Area in common with the Grantor in any quantity from the Dominant Land.

  5. The Grantee shall have the right to enter upon the Easement Area at all times with or without employees, contractors and agents together with all necessary plant, tools and machinery to maintain the dam or to carry out any work or excavation or construction that may be necessary to ensure the continuing functioning and safety of the Dam.

  6. The Grantor may take stock on to the Easement Area but only for the purpose of moving stock across that area and the Grantor must ensure that no stock stray on to the face of the Dam. However, the Grantor may graze that part of the area marked “B” on SO 453850 within the Easement Area which is not fenced. This grazing right is revocable at will at any time by the Grantee.

  7. The Grantor will not at any time without the Grantee’s approval dig in the Easement Area or do or cause to be done anything that will undermine or interfere with the Dam or its functioning or allow to be done any act whereby the rights and powers granted to the Grantee in this easement may be interfered with or affected in any way.

The Grantee will give the Grantor one month’s notice in writing of its intention to erect such a fence which will include gates so as to permit the Grantor and the Grantee use of any formed vehicular access within the Easement Area.

  10. The Grantor will not construct or place any building, structures, equipment or fences on the Easement Area without the consent of the Grantee.
