Résumé These Regulations, consisting of 169 Articles organized into ten Chapters, delineate the authority over all lands and real estates categorized as public state property associated with water resources and irrigation. The determination of lands and real estate falling under public properties linked to water resources and irrigation, with a designated purpose for public benefit, is outlined by a Ministerial decision. Article 4 outlines the procedures, placing responsibility on the Ministry for the management, exploitation, and disposal of lands intended for public benefit. Within the legal framework defined by the Law and these Regulations, the Ministry possesses exclusive jurisdiction to oversee all activities conducted by relevant authorities on public property related to water resources and irrigation. Nevertheless, through a Ministerial decision, the Ministry may delegate supervision of specific portions of public property related to water resources and irrigation to ministries, public departments, public bodies, local administration units, or water user associations (Article 9). The State does not bear responsibility for any damage that occurs to lands or facilities located within public property related to water resources and irrigation if the damage results from a change in the water level for emergency reasons or required by the work of irrigation and drainage budgets or due to a rise in the level of sea water or sediments if the Ministry has taken the necessary preventive measures in accordance with the rules of responsibility stipulated in the Civil Code (Article 10). The Regulations deal, among other topics, with (i) the private works that can be conducted within public property related to water resources and irrigation, taking into account the genera rule that it is not permissible to conduct any private work within the boundaries of public property related to water resources and irrigation, or to make modifications or renovations therein, except after obtaining a license from the Ministry; (ii) rights to benefit from private irrigation and drainage sources and methods (Article 23 et seq).
