Resumen

The International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC) outlined to the United States Government the critical situation prevailing in the Rio Grande, where drought reduced inflows to the storage dams, so threatening the water supply for domestic uses in Mexican communities located along the river. Based also on the report of the Mexican Commissioner the IBWC submitted for approval by the Governments of Mexico and United States resolutions concerning emergency cooperative measures to cover the needs of a domestic and municipal nature for the Mexican communities mentioned above. Under the circumstances stated in Resolution 1 Mexico may divert and use waters allotted to the United States form the Conchos River, to be repaid under the terms of Resolution 2 and initiated under the procedures established in Resolution 3 of this Minute. The Commission will continue its practice of exchanging information regarding water management practices in order to develop proper conservation and other planning strategies in the interest of the two countries.
