If enough elevation drop across the property is present. You pick up at the highest point with a pipe and discharge lower. Thats if enough flow and head for the pipe is there. Saves building dams etc. So it seriously depends what is there.

I only got involved in one once. Side of a very large hill. We did not measure the velocity out the nozzle but it was powerful. I have never been back to see how and if he harnessed it. Could have drove a small tubine easily. This approach when possible saves all kinds of grief like washed out dams.
