<br />
<br />Net losses by evaporation, as defined above, shall be
<br />used in correcting Index Supplies for the operation of
<br />reservoirs upstream from Index Gaging Stations as required
<br />by the provisions of Article III and Article IV of the
<br />Compact.
<br />
<br />In the application of the provisions of the last
<br />unnumbered paragraph of Article VI of the Compact:
<br />
<br />(a) Evaporation losses for which accrued credits
<br />shall be reduced shall be taken as the difference between
<br />the gross evaporation from the water surface of Elephant
<br />Butte Reservoir and rainfall on the same surface.
<br />
<br />(b) Evaporation losses for which accrued debits shall
<br />be reduced shall be taken as the net loss by evaporation as
<br />defined in the first paragraph.
<br />
<br />ADJUSTMENT OF RECORDS
<br />
<br />The Commission shall keep a record of the location,
<br />and description of each gaging station and evaporation
<br />station, and, in the event of change in location of any
<br />stream gaging station for any reason, it shall ascertain
<br />the increment in flow or decrease in flow between such
<br />locations for all stages. Wherever practicable, concurrent
<br />records shall be obtained for one year before abandonment
<br />of the previous station.
<br />
<br />NEW OR INCREASED DEPLETIONS
<br />
<br />In the event any works are constructed which alter or
<br />may be expected to alter the flow at any of the Index Gaging
<br />Stations mentioned in the Compact, or which may otherwise
<br />necessitate adjustments in the application of the schedules
<br />set forth in the Compact, it shall be the duty of the
<br />Commissioner specifically concerned to file with the
<br />Commission all available information pertaining thereto,
<br />and appropriate adjustments shall be made in accordance
<br />with the terms of the Compact; provided, however, that any
<br />such adjustments shall in no way increase the burden
<br />imposed upon Colorado or New Mexico under the schedules of
<br />deliveries established by the Compact.
<br />
<br />TRANS MOUNTAIN DIVERSIONS
<br />
<br />In the evenL,an,y works are constructed for the delivery
<br />of waters into the drainage basin of the Rio Grande from
<br />any stream system outside of the Rio Grande Basin, such
<br />waters shall be measured at the point of delivery into the
<br />Rio Grande Basin and proper allowances shall be made for
<br />losses in transit from such points to the Index Gaging
<br />Station on the stream with which the imported waters are
