A landowner, under a contract provided for in section 50-17-05, may be required to protect soil-saving dams and other works and to practice specified cultural methods for the prevention of soil erosion.  If the landowner fails to meet these requirements, the conservation commission may cause to be constructed such terraces and other works as will repair the damage done through the landowner's noncompliance with the contract.  The cost of such construction must be collected, paid, and accounted for as a special state charge against the land specified as the basis of the original contract and must be paid into the conservation fund and used as a revolving appropriation to carry out the provisions of this section.
