Upon receipt of the said final report and plan for sewage disposal, the board of trustees may adopt such report or any modification thereof after consulting with the chief engineer, and thereafter such adopted report shall be known and designated as the "Sewer Plan of ______ District", which plan shall be filed with the board of trustees and embodied in the records of the district. The board of trustees may purchase upon such terms as they may deem best, existing surveys, maps, profiles, and/or plans suitable for use in the whole or in part of the sewer plan.
