International Boundary and Water Commission: U.S. Operations Need More Financial Oversight

Contributor
Summary
The International Boundary and Water Commission was established in March 1889 by treaty between the governments of the United States and Mexico. Under the treaty and subsequent agreements, the Commission is responsible for resolving boundary problems and maintaining the boundary between the United States and Mexico and managing issues involving the waters of the Rio Grande and Colorado Rivers. The focus of Commission responsibilities has evolved over time to include resolving border water quality problems and, more recently, to designing, constructing, and operating and maintaining wastewater treatment facilities along the border (see fig. 1). Much of this change in responsibilities has occurred in response to the expansion of economic activity and the growth of population along the border. These developments have heightened the need for additional water sources and an enhanced environmental infrastructure
