RECORDS OF DEUVERIES AND RELEASES

26

At the annual meeting of the Compact Commission on March 26, 1992, the records of deUverles and releases and
computations of debits and credits for calendar year 1991 were reported. The records and computations as approved by the
Commission are reproduced on the next three pages. . .

The delivery of water in the Rio Grande at the Colorado-New Mexico State line was obtained from the record of streamflow
near Lobatos, Colorado; the scheduled delivery was computed as prescribed in Article Ill.

The delivery of water by New M;exico to Elephant Butte was computed from the record of streamflow below Elephant Butte
Dam and the record of operation of Elephant Butte Reservoir; the scheduled delivery was computed as prescribed in the Resolution
01 the Commission adopted at the Ninth Annual Meeting held February 22-24, 1948, and published in this report.

The actual release Irom Project Storage during the year was measured at gaging stations below Caballo Dam. The balance
for items P2 through P7 will not be computed until needed. As long as actual release was less than cumulative nonnal release, item
P'7 has no application in the accounting.
