Sec. 6. (a) If an agreement cannot be reached by the owner of the land considered needed for the reservoir site and the taker that is authorized to condemn the site by section 5 of this chapter, the taker must set forth the following:
(1) The interest to be taken in the land.
(2) The earliest date on which the taker intends to store water or to start construction to create a reservoir impoundment for the purposes set forth in section 1 of this chapter.
(b) The appraisers appointed by the court in the condemnation proceedings shall value the interest to be taken accordingly, giving due consideration to the fact that the owner of the land has use of the land, subject to the terms of the interest sought to be taken, until the date upon which the land may be inundated according to the terms of the complaint. In arriving at the proper valuation to be paid the owner of the land for the easement or the interest in fee to be taken or purchased, the landowner is considered to own the land for a term of years ending with the date set out in the complaint. The interest taken shall be valued as a remainder interest after that term of years.
