Administrative court dismisses appeal when non-party designee's liability claims fall outside water court jurisdiction.

The administrative court dismissed the appeal regarding the environmental protection board's decision because the designee company was not a party to the original excavation case. The appellant argued that disputes arising from the design contract should be handled by water courts, but the court found this matter belonged to civil jurisdiction. Consequently, the water court correctly refused to examine the company's liability claims as they were procedurally inadmissible in this administrative proceeding.
