Résumé

This chapter of the Vermont Statutes concerns drainage of low lands. It provides that when the public good or the necessity or convenience of individuals requires the opening of a ditch or watercourse to drain low or swamp lands, to enable owners or occupants thereof to cultivate the same, such owners or occupants shall open such ditch or watercourse in proportion to their several interests. When there is a dispute between parties as to the opening of a ditch or watercourse or the width, depth, or extent that a person shall open, either party may notify in writing the selectboard of the town in which the lands are located of the dispute and ask for an investigation.
