Under the negotiated outcome, Mexico committed to: 💧 Deliver a minimum of 350,000 acre‑feet of water per year to the U.S. during the current 5‑year cycle 🗒️ Detailed plan to fully repay all outstanding water debt accrued during the previous cycle Both parties will hold monthly meetings to ensure timely, consistent deliveries and prevent future deficits.
