As soon as practicable after the determination of the priorities of appropriation of the use of waters of any stream, it shall be the duty of the secretary to issue to each person, association or corporation represented in the determination a certificate to be signed by the president of the board of control, and attested under seal, setting forth the names and post office address of the appropriator; the priority date and number of the appropriation; the amount of water appropriated; and if the appropriation is for irrigation, a description of the legal subdivisions of land to which the water is to be applied. Certificates shall be transmitted to the county clerk of the county in which the appropriation shall have been made, and it shall be the duty of the county clerk upon receipt of the recording fee required by W.S. 18-3-402 to record the same in a book especially prepared and kept for that purpose, and thereupon immediately transmit the same to the respective appropriators. At the time of the submission of testimony to the division superintendent he shall collect for each proof taken a fee not to exceed fifty dollars ($50.00) which fee shall be transmitted to the secretary of the board of control together with the testimony and proofs of appropriation. The county recording fee shall be used as above provided and the remainder shall be credited to the general fund.
