The Board of Water and Natural Resources may at any time investigate the operations of any district. If it discovers the operations are detrimental to proper utilization of waters or existing rights, the board may in its discretion hold a hearing to obtain facts and information. After the hearing, the Board of Water and Natural Resources may order the district directors to correct the operation. If the directors fail to make the ordered corrections, the board may procure a court order to prevent further detrimental operations.
