across any channel, reservoir, or other construction; and may

prescribe the manner in which ditches or other works shall be

adjusted to or connected with the works of the district or any

watercourse therein.

The construction of any works in a manner harmful to the

district or to any water course therein, and in a manner contrary to

that specified by the directors, shall be a misdemeanor, and upon

conviction shall be punishable by a fine of not more than Five
