Texas v. New Mexico · ¶278

When determining whether New Mexico is in violation of the Accrued Negative Departure Limit, or whether the additional Index Adjustments for exceedances of the Accrued Negative Departure Limit (see Section 5.4.2) apply, the impact of the Texas District's Project Carryover Water will be added to the current Accrued Negative Departure, thus reducing the apparent Accrued Negative Departure for that year. This apparent Accrued Negative Departure will then be used to determine only whether New Mexico is in violation of the Accrued Negative Departure Limit for that year and whether Index Adjustments should apply. The current value of the Accrued Negative Departure will remain unchanged. 5.5 End of 5th Year Adjustment to Accrued Index Departures
