Such assessment may be levied and collected in the same manner as any other district assessment might be levied and collected, as deemed appropriate by the board. As an alternative to such levy of an assessment, or in addition thereto, the board may derive all or a portion of the amounts to be paid to the United States under the contract by the collection of charges from the persons to or for whom the water was furnished, under the provisions of Section 50911.
