Read a random definition: establishment

A quick definition of artificial watercourse:

An artificial watercourse is a man-made channel for water to flow through. It is usually created for a temporary purpose. However, if it is maintained for a long time, it may be considered a natural watercourse. A natural watercourse is a body of water that flows in a definite channel with bed and banks, and has its origin in the forces of nature. It includes rivers, creeks, springs, lakes, and marshes. Surface water, which flows intermittently and in an indefinite channel, is not considered a natural watercourse.

A more thorough explanation:

An artificial watercourse is a man-made channel or path for water to flow through. It is usually created for a specific purpose and may only be used temporarily. However, if the watercourse is maintained for a long enough time, it may be considered a natural watercourse and be subject to riparian rights.

For example, a farmer may dig a ditch to divert water from a nearby river to irrigate their crops. This ditch would be considered an artificial watercourse. However, if the ditch is maintained for many years and becomes a permanent feature, it may be considered a natural watercourse and the farmer may have riparian rights to the water.

It is important to note that a natural watercourse is one that is created by the forces of nature, such as a river or creek. An artificial watercourse is created by humans and does not have the same legal status as a natural watercourse.
