     103E.405 Outlets in adjoining states. 


    In any drainage proceeding, at the hearing on the detailed 
 survey report and viewers' report, if the drainage authority 
 determines that a proper outlet for the drainage system does not 
 exist except through property in an adjoining state, the 
 drainage authority may adjourn the hearing.  If the hearing is 
 adjourned the drainage authority shall require the auditor or, 
 for a joint county drainage system, the auditors of affected 
 counties to procure an option to acquire the needed right-of-way 
 at an expense not exceeding the estimated cost specified in the 
 detailed survey report.  The order establishing the drainage 
 project may not be made until the option is procured.  If the 
 option is procured and the drainage project established, the 
 option shall be exercised and the cost of the right-of-way shall 
 be paid as a part of the cost of the drainage project.
