Water Act Article 20-1

When water is under supply, the water right holder who is given preemptive use on account of his priority according to subparagraphs 2 ~ 6, paragraph 1 of Article 18 herein shall properly compensate water right holders who have registered their water right before he did, provided his preemptive use causes material damages to those water right holders. The amount of compensation is subject to the agreement of parties concerned. If no agreement is reached, the authority-in-charge will assess the damages and approve the amount, and impose the liability upon the one who has the preemptive use.
