Any work which will change or diminish the course, current or cross section of a public water shall be approved by the Commissioner before the work is begun. This includes construction of channels and ditches, lagooning, dredging of lakes or stream bottom for removal of muck, silt or weeds and filling in the lake or stream bed. Approval shall be construed to mean the issuance by the Commissioner of a permit under the procedures of M.S. Chapter 103F, as it may be amended from time to time.
