The plans and specifications and all contracts for construction work contracted for by boards of county commissioners under this chapter shall first be approved by the director of the department of water resources, and any construction contract entered into by such boards shall by its terms provide that such construction work shall be completed in accordance with such plans and specifications to the approval of the director of the department of water resources except in the case of contracts with the United States government. It shall be the duty of the director of the department of water resources, upon the completion of the work under any contract entered into under the provisions of this chapter to issue a certificate of such completion to the board or boards of county commissioners.
