(1) If an astronomy device management authority finds it necessary to move any facility, pipe, tunnel or tube associated with an astronomy device constructed upon, in, over, along, across or under any land, railway, street, road, footpath or waterway, owing to any alteration of alignment or level or any other work on the part of any local authority or person, the cost of the alteration or removal must be borne by an astronomy device management authority.

(b) The owner of the property must, in writing, give notice that any such deviation or alteration is required, to the astronomy device management authority, not less than 28 days before the alteration or deviation is to be effected.

 

(3) Where a dispute arises between any owner of private property and an astronomy device management authority in respect of any decision made by that astronomy device management authority, such dispute must be referred to the Minister for a decision.
