determined using Equation 1, but the value for QCaballo will be set to 790,000 acre-feet.

Furthermore, the Index Obligation will be adjusted to account for any estimated change, since the D2 Period, in open water evaporation and riparian evapotranspiration between the Rio Grande Below Caballo Dam stream gage and the El Paso Gage using the following equation (Equation 2): Equation 2 A [y] = 47,137 · (1.0 – (ETo [y] / ETo [D2])) · (67/155) Where, • 47,137 is the average open water evaporation and riparian evapotranspiration during the D2 Period, in acre- feet. • A [y] is the calculated Aridity Adjustment to the Index Obligation for each calendar year in acre-feet. • ETo [y] is the five-year running average of…Read in context ›
