Sec. 7. (a) In determining the existence and amount of exceptional benefits resulting from the accomplishment of the purpose of:

(3) both;
for a district having a district plan incorporating a watershed work plan prepared in cooperation with the United States Secretary of Agriculture under the federal Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.), the appraisers shall be guided in their determination of what real property receives exceptional benefits by the studies of the United States Natural Resources Conservation Service regarding land to be benefited that have been incorporated onto a map of the watershed and made a part of the district plan.
(b) The only other real property that the appraisers may consider as exceptionally benefited is real property that has a higher and better use as an incidental result of the works of improvement.
