Gravity sub-drainage districts may also be formed on the petition of the board of commissioners of the gravity drainage district in which the proposed gravity sub-drainage district is situated, and they shall be formed upon a petition being presented as provided in R.S. 38:1751 for the compulsory creation of gravity drainage districts.
