Texas to accept water from Mexico but demands it follow terms of treaty | Texas
SUMMARY: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has directed the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to accept water from Mexico’s San Juan River, following an agreement ensuring water deliveries to the Rio Grande Valley. Abbott raised concerns over Mexico’s compliance with the 1944 Water Treaty, emphasizing that the 120,000 acre-feet offered is insufficient compared to the 1.75 million acre-feet Mexico is obligated to deliver. Texas is facing a projected water deficit of 1.3 million acre-feet by October 2025. Both parties have long urged the federal government to hold Mexico accountable for treaty violations, which have significantly impacted the agricultural sector in the region.
