1 Kevin Wheeler P.E. Using RiverWare to Support the Ongoing Bi-National Discussions for Management of the Colorado River Russ Callejo
2 Purpose of Discussions Joint Cooperative Measures for Colorado River Management Mutual Benefits for United States and Mexico
3 Background 1944 Treaty Allotment of Water to Mexico Minute 317 June 2010 Conceptual Framework for U.S. Mexico Discussions on Colorado River Cooperative Actions Minute 318 December 2010 Adjustment of Delivery Schedules for Water Allotted to Mexico as a matter of international comity as a Result of Infrastructure Damage
4 Background 2007 Colorado River Interim Guidelines for Lower Basin s and Coordinated Operations for Lakes Powell and Mead Proactive System Management Reductions of Water Allocation for Lower Basin States Volumes Based on Lake Mead Elevations Only Pertains to Unites States
5 Hydrology Sub-Workgroup United States and Mexico Participants Explore Alternatives Mexico Triggers Mexico Triggers
