(b) When the district obtains a water supply under contract with the United States, the board may, by resolution entered in their minutes and with the consent of the secretary of the interior, waive the lien in whole or in part. (c) If the crops against which the district has a lien under this section are cultivated on a basis other than annual replanting, the owner of the crops shall record with the county clerk of the county where the land on which the crops are cultivated is located a legally sufficient description of the land, including a metes and bounds description or a plat reference.
