SECTION 6390-6393
6390. Upon receipt of a written complaint alleging that the person or property of the complainant is endangered by the construction, maintenance, or operation of any dam or reservoir the department shall cause an inspection to be made unless the data, records, and inspection reports on file with it are found adequate to enable a determination whether or not the complaint is meritorious. 6391. If the complainant insists upon an inspection and deposits with the department a sum estimated by it to be sufficient to cover costs of an inspection, the department shall cause an inspection to be made despite its finding as to the sufficiency of its records to determine the alleged danger. 6392. If it is found that an unsafe condition exists, the department shall take such action as is necessary to render or cause the condition to be rendered safe and any money deposited to secure an inspection shall be returned. 6393. If, after an inspection is made on account of a complaint, the complaint is found by the department to have been without merit, any money deposited therefor shall be payable into the State Treasury.
