<br />000492 <br />Summary of Water Resources in Northern Mexico . <br /> <br />NIB <br />. Mexico diverts u.s. deliveries at the NIB into the Alamo canal to irrigate approximately <br />448,000 acres in the Mexicali Valley (depending upon the hydrology), and supply municipal <br />and industrial uses in the cities of Mexicali, Tecate, and Tijuana-Rosarito. <br /> <br />Figure 4.

The sources of u.S. deliveries at the SIB are the Yuma Main Drain, East Main Canal <br />Wasteway, West Main Canal Wasteway, and the U.S. 242 Wellfield. <br /> <br />. Mexico routes a fraction of the Colorado River water delivered at the NIB to the south, beneath <br />the Colorado River, to San Luis, Sonora where it is mixed in the Sanchez Mejorada Canal with <br />water delivered at the SIB. By routing a fraction of its water delivered at the NIB, Mexico <br />provides additional water to the San Luis Valley and reduces the salinity of water delivered at <br />the SIB. <br /> <br />. Approximately 66,000 acres in the San Luis Valley are irrigated by water supplies from the <br />Sanchez Mejorada Canal, groundwater production from the San Luis Mesa Arenosa wellfield, <br />and wells located in the valley. <br /> <br />Page 6 of 10 <br /> <br />Seven Basin States June 1,2002 <br />
