    Mr*. Edward C. Berwick #4 Hie charge of this publication of twelve and a half dollars is taken from the application fee of twenty dollars, and in the event the application is cancelled or withdrawn before it goes to publication* such amount of twelve and a half dollars is returned to the applicant. During this publica­tion period and up until thirty days following the final publication thereof formal protests against the granting of a permit may be filed. Such protests must be filed in du­plicate and must , be accompanied by the statutory filing fee of one dollar. The State Engineer can take action on the appli­cation thirty days following the date of final publication. If no protests have been filed and the records of this of­fice indicate that the approval thereof woulld not' impair or injure any prior appropriation on the source or, if for stockwatering purposes, would not contravene the policy of the 1985 stockwatering law, said application is often grant­ed subject to prior rights without a field investigation. However, where protests have been filed, or the office re­cords indicate a possible conflict, field investigations are made, and when it appears justifiable hearings are held. Where the issues involved are well defined the State Engineer often approves or rejects said application on the strength of the investigation. Any person feeling himself aggrieved by any order or decision of the State Engineer affecting his Interests may have such order or decision reviewed by a proceeding initiated in the proper court of the county in which the matter affecting his interests is situated, ^as set forth in Sec* 75, Chap. 253, Stats. 1915, of our water law. Prior to the granting of a permit the State Engineer notifies the applicant that certain fees, as set forth in section 73, chapter 106, Statutes of 1921 of our water law, are due for issuing and recording the permit. Following the receipt of said'fees the State Engineer issues the applicant a permit. Wherein it is provided that the permittee, in order to perfect said permit, must com­mence work on his appurtenant works and file proof of com­mencement of work on or before a certain tiraej must com­plete the appurtenant works and file proof thereof on or before a Certain time and must place' the water to beneficial use And file proof of beneficial use, together with a map prepared from a survey made by a licensed State Water Right
