. (a) Within 60 days after the date by which claimants to
rights to the water of the stream system are required to notify the
board in writing of their intention to file proof of claim, the board
shall prepare and file for record, in the office of the county
recorder of each county in which any part of the stream system is
situated, a notice setting forth all of the following facts:
(1) The order has been entered and the proceedings are pending.
(2) Information regarding the status of the proceedings may be obtained from the board.
(3) The proceedings will result in a determination of the rights to water of the stream system.
(4) Any claimant who fails to appear and submit proof of his or her claim as provided in this chapter shall be held to have forfeited all rights to water previously claimed by him or her on the stream system, other than as provided in the decree, unless entitled to relief under the laws of this state.
(5) At the conclusion of the proceedings, the superior court will enter a decree determining the water rights appurtenant to each parcel identified in the notice, including the specific parcel against which this notice appears, and the decree may accord the claimant for that parcel water rights which are different from those he or she has claimed.
(b) The notice shall identify the current owners of each parcel that appears to be riparian to the stream system or to which water is diverted from the stream, and shall be recorded in a manner so that anyone researching the title of a parcel will find the notice.
(c) If the board subsequently identifies an additional parcel or parcels which appear to be riparian to the stream system or to which water is diverted from the stream, the board shall prepare and file for record a supplementary notice identifying the current owners of the additional parcels. The supplementary notice shall be recorded in the same manner as the original notice.
