Every Water Court shall maintain a list of water projects in a water book for their jurisdictional district. The Book shall be organized in 4 divisions: water projects and water works designed to use water as a propelling force, and dam constructions (even if not so intended); water projects and water works for public waters; water supplies; other water projects and water works covered by the Water Act of 1982 (art. 1). Each of these divisions shall be organized according to river basins or, if necessary, sections of river basins. A record of a verdict regarding a water project made by a Water Court shall be entered immediately in the Water Book. Remaining provisions of this Regulation concern the organization of the Water Book in separate sheets. (7 articles)
