<br />" <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Assistance to Mexico in Rehabilitation Program <br /> <br />Point 7 of Minute No. 242 provides that: <br /> <br />"The United states will support efforts of Mexico to <br />obtain appropriate financing on favorable terms for <br />the improvement and rehabilitation of the Mexicali <br />Valley. The united states will also provide non-re- <br />imbursable assistance on the basis mutually accept- <br />able to both countries, exclusively for those as- <br />pects of the Mexican rehabilitation program of the <br />Mexicali Valley relating to the salinity problem, <br />inClUding tile drainage." <br /> <br />The Government of Mexico has not asked the United states for assis- <br />tance in obtaining financing for the improvement and rehabilitation <br />of the Mexicali Valley. Mexico has not proposed non-reimbursable <br />assistance for those aspects of the Mexican rehabilitation program <br />relating to the salinity problems. The Mexicali Valley rehabilita- <br />tion program was essentially complete at the end of calendar year <br />1977. <br /> <br />Acknowledgement <br /> <br />The full cooperation of the U.s. Department of the Interior and the <br />Bureau of Reclamation, which enabled compliance with the 1944 <br />Treaty and the salinity agreement with Mexico, as reported herein, <br />is acknowledged with appreciation. <br /> <br />Narendra N. Gunaji <br />Commissioner <br />
