22096.  All laws respecting irrigation by districts or respecting
districts shall also be so construed and enforced as to apply to
drainage.


22097.  The officers, agents, and employees of districts have the
same powers, duties, and liabilities respecting drainage and

respecting irrigation.


22098.  Whenever it appears necessary to drain any land within a
district on account of the irrigation which has been done or which is
intended to be done by the district under laws relating to it,
whether for the purpose of more beneficially carrying on the

irrigation, its board, if it is reasonable from an economic
standpoint that the drainage be provided, shall provide for the
drainage.


22099.  No drainage need be provided for land as to which the
district is relieved from liability for seepage or flooding by reason
of grant, waiver, prescription, statute, decree, or condemnation.
