Such appointments may be made from time to time and for such period of time, not more than two months in length, as designated by the Chief Justice. Such additional state referees shall have the same powers and duties as state referees appointed under section 52-434, with respect to the granting of the approvals and the performance of other duties of state referees in the acquisition of land and buildings for such expressway, highway, stadium facility and related parking facilities and shall receive such reasonable compensation as is determined by the Chief Justice, and such compensation and expenses incurred in the conduct of any hearings by such state referees shall be paid as a part of the cost thereof.
