WATER COURSES Clause Samples

The 'Water Courses' clause defines the rights and responsibilities of parties regarding the use, maintenance, and protection of natural or artificial streams, rivers, or channels on or adjacent to a property. It typically outlines who is responsible for ensuring water flow is not obstructed, maintaining banks or embankments, and preventing pollution or unauthorized alterations to the water course. This clause helps prevent disputes over water rights, ensures environmental compliance, and protects both parties from liability related to water management on the property.
