15 Undertakers to do as little damage as possible
In the exercise of the powers conferred upon them by this Act, the undertakers shall do as little damage as may be, and, so far as is practicable, shall cause all land used in or in connection with the erection or construction of any works to be restored to its original character, and shall provide other watering-places, drains, and channels for the use of adjoining lands in place of any such watering-places, drains, or channels as are taken away or interrupted by the undertakers.
