1. If the State Environmental Commission determines that:

(a) A water system which is located in a county and was constructed on or after July 1, 1991, is not satisfactorily serving the needs of its users; and

(b) Water provided by a public utility or a municipality or other public entity is reasonably available to those users,

the board of county commissioners of that county may require all users of the system to connect into the available water system provided by a public utility or a municipality or other public entity, and may assess each lot or parcel served for its proportionate share of the costs associated with connecting into that water system. If the water system is being connected into a public utility, the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada shall determine the amount of the assessments for the purposes of establishing a lien pursuant to NRS 445A.900.

2. As used in this section, “water system” has the meaning ascribed to it in NRS 445A.850.
