TITLE 43—PUBLIC LANDS
§ 523
lands lying within any irrigation district with
which the United States shall have contracted,
by which the irrigation district agrees to make
the payment of all charges for the building of ir-
rigation works and for operation and mainte-
nance, shall not reserve to the United States a
lien for the payment of such charges; and where
such a lien shall have been reserved in any pat-
ent or water-right certificate issued under said
subchapter, the Secretary of the Interior is em-
powered to release such lien in such manner and
form as may be deemed effective; and the Sec-
retary of the Interior is further empowered to
release liens in favor of the United States con-
tained in water-right applications and to assent
to the release of liens to secure reimbursement
of moneys due to the United States pursuant to
water-right applications running in favor of the
water users’ association and contained in stock
subscription contracts to such associations,
when the lands covered by such liens shall be
subject to assessment and levy for the collection
of all moneys due and to become due to the
United States by irrigation districts formed pur-
suant to State law and with which the United
States shall have entered into contract therefor:
Provided, That no such lien so reserved to the
United States in any patent or water-right cer-
tificate shall be released until the owner of the
land covered by the lien shall consent in writing
to the assessment, levy, and collection by such
irrigation district of taxes against said land for
the payment to the United States of the con-
tract obligation: Provided further, That before
any lien is released under this section the Sec-
retary of the Interior shall file a written report

§ 524
has been or may be provided in excess of the re-
quirements of the lands to be irrigated under
any project, the Secretary of the Interior, pre-
serving a first right to lands and entrymen
under the project, is authorized, upon such
terms as he may determine to be just and equi-
table, to contract for the impounding, storage,
and carriage of water to an extent not exceeding
such excess capacity with irrigation systems op-
erating under section 641 of this title, and indi-
viduals, corporations, associations, and irriga-
tion districts organized for or engaged in fur-
nishing or in distributing water for irrigation.
Water so impounded, stored, or carried under
any such contract shall be for the purpose of dis-
tribution to individual water users by the party
with whom the contract is made: Provided, how-
ever, That water so impounded, stored, or car-
ried shall not be used otherwise than as pre-
scribed by law as to lands held in private owner-
ship within Government reclamation projects.
In fixing the charges under any such contract
for impounding, storing, or carrying water for
any irrigation system, corporation, association,
district, or individual, as herein provided, the
Secretary shall take into consideration the cost
of construction and maintenance of the res-
ervoir by which such water is to be impounded
or stored and the canal by which it is to be car-
ried, and such charges shall be just and equi-
table as to water users under the Government
project. No irrigation system, district, associa-
tion, corporation, or individual so contracting
shall make any charge for the storage, carriage,
or delivery of such water in excess of the charge
paid to the United States except to such extent
as may be reasonably nec
