2. The notice must include:
(a) The name, mailing address and telephone number of each owner of the dam.
(b) The number of the permit for each water right for the water formerly impounded by the dam.
(c) The location of the dam. The location must be expressed by bearing and distance to a known section corner from a reference point on the dam. The reference point must be on the long axis of the dam at the station where the toe is at the lowest elevation. If no single point meets this criterion, the reference point must be at the intersection of the long axis and the principle outlet centerline of the dam.
