A certified copy of such description and map shall be filed by the condemnor in the office of the county clerk or register of each county in which such property is situated and thereupon the acquisition by the state of the property described in such description and map shall be deemed complete, and the title to such property shall vest in the people of the state.

All other statutory provisions relating to claims on account of such acquisitionshall apply to claims which may arise under this subdivision with the same force and effect.

Such notice shall briefly state the object of the proceeding and shall contain a general description by metes and bounds or by section, block and lot number of the real property to be acquired thereby. It shall also state the names of such of the reputed condemnees of such real property as may be known to the condemnor, and in case any of the condemnees are unknown, a statement to that effect shall be made in such notice. (2) The condemnor shall, at least twenty days prior to the return date of the petition, serve a notice of the time, place and object of the proceeding upon the owner of record of the property to be acquired, as the same appears from the record of the office in which the acquisition map is to be filed. Said notice shall contain a copy of that portion of the proposed acquisition map affecting the owner's property. Service shall be made pursuant to the civil practice law and rules or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested. If service is made by mail it shall be sent to the last known address of the owner, and the following provisions shall also apply: (a) At least ten but not more than thirty days before the return date of the application, the condemnor shall also cause a copy of a diagram or representation of the acquisition map showing the perimeters to be acquired and a notice generally describing the property to be acquired by metes and bounds or by section, block and lot numbers, to be advertised by publishing in at least ten successive issues of an official newspaper if there is one designated in the locality where the property is situated, and in at least ten successive issues of a newspaper of general circulation in such locality. If the official newspaper is one of general circulation in such locality, publication therein as specified shall be deemed sufficient compliance. In the event that the only newspaper available in such locality is a weekly publication the above described notice shall be published in such newspaper in at least three successive issues. Where the condemnor has conducted an article two public hearing or when the condemnor is exempt from compliance with article two pursuant to section two hundred six the condemnor may dispense with the requirement of publication in ten successive issues of a newspaper of general circulation. (b) Where practicable, the condemnor shall cause copies of such notice in the form of handbills to be posted for the same period in at least three conspicuous places, upon or near such real property. The inadvertent failure to notify any condemnee, whether of record or not, will not invalidate any proceedings brought hereunder or any title acquired by the condemnor under this law. (3) The condemnor shall present to the court a petition verified by an authorized officer of the condemnor setting forth: (a) a statement providing either the compliance with the requirements of article two of this law, including a copy of the condemnor'sdetermination and findings or a statement providing the basis of exemption from article two; (b) a copy of the proposed acquisition map to be filed and the names and places of residence of the condemnees of the property to be acquired; (c) a description of the real property to be acquired and its location, either by metes and bounds of each individual parcel, or section, block and lot number, and by reference to the acquisition map and notice of pendency attached to the petition; (d) the public use, benefit or purpose for which the property is required; (e) a request that the court direct entry of an order authorizing the filing of the acquisition map in the office of the appropriate county clerk or register and that upon such filing, title shall vest in the condemnor; (f) if a non-governmental condemnor subject to the jurisdiction, supervision and regulation of the public service commission or the commissioner of transportation, it shall include in its petition for acquisition, notice that it shall deposit a bond or undertaking with the clerk of the court prior to vesting of title to the real property described in such petition in an amount to be fixed by the court on the return date of the petition. The court shall direct that the bond or undertaking will be applied in the amount necessary, for any default by the condemnor in the payment of all or part of the damages determined in the acquisition proceeding or the abandonment thereof. The requirement for a bond or undertaking under this subdivision, may be waived by stipulation of the parties. If the amount deposited is insufficient to pay such damages and all costs and expenses awarded to a condemnee, judgment shall be entered against the condemnor for the deficiency, to be enforced and collected in the same manner as a judgment in the supreme court; (g) if the property is to be used for the construction of a major utility transmission facility, as defined in section one hundred twenty of the public service law, or major steam electric generating facility as defined in section one hundred forty of such law with respect to which a certificate of environmental compatibility and public need has been issued under such law, a statement that such certificate relating to such property has been issued and is in force. (4) Upon the presentation of the petition and notice with proof of service thereof, a condemnee may appear and interpose a verified answer, which must contain specific denial of each material allegation of the petition controverted by him, or of any knowledge or information thereof, sufficient to form a belief, or a statement of new matter constituting a defense to the proceeding. (5) At the time and place mentioned in such notice, unless the court shall adjourn the application to a subsequent date, and in that event at the time and place to which the same may be adjourned, upon due proof of service of notice and upon filing of such petition and proof to its satisfaction that the procedural requirements of this law have been met, the court shall direct the immediate filing and entry of the order granting the petition, which order the condemnor shall file and enter together with the acquisition map and the bond or undertaking if required, in the office of the county clerk or register in each county in which the real property or any part thereof is situated.
