Mont. Code Ann. § 85-1-207

(1997)

Determination of costs of works

The department, in determining how the cost of works must be met, shall consider the value of public benefits and the repayment capacity of the water users. A state grant may be provided by the department to compensate for the value of public benefits, to minimize the liabilities of the state of Montana, and to pay the difference between the water users' repayment capacity and the cost of works.
