One of the main attributes of acequias is that they return water back to the stream. Option C is correct.

An acequia is a community-operated watercourse implemented in Spain and old Spanish colonies in the Americas for irrigation. Especially in Spain, the Andes, northern Mexico, and the modern-day American Southwest, acequias are engineered canals that carry snow runoff or river water to far fields.
