When the water deposits stones, brush, or other objects on an estate which interfere with its natural course and may block the channel, causing floods, a diversion of the water or other damages, the persons interested may require the owner of the estate to remove the obstacle or permit them to remove it. If damages lie they shall be paid by the person causing them.
