Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, dig under any lot, at a depth of more than fifty feet, a tunnel for its water and sewer conduits. As soon as work begins, the Community shall become the owner, without any formality or indemnity, subject to any recourse in damages, of the volume occupied by the tunnel and a radius of five feet around it. As soon as work begins, the Community shall advise the owner of the above lot of the existence of the work and the provisions of this section. In the year following the start of work, the Community shall deposit in its archives a copy of a plan certified by the director of the department involved, showing the horizontal projection of such tunnel. It shall register such plan by depositing two copies at the office of the registration division of the immoveable affected and the registrar shall mention each lot or part of lot affected in the index of immoveables.
