Summary
This dataset contains annual Rio Grande Project surface-water allotments and diversion allocations from 1940 through 2014 to lands within New Mexico, Texas, and Mexico. Allotment and allocation values were extracted from the Allocation spreadsheet (Ferguson, I., Bureau of Reclamation, written commun., 2016). Allotment values are presented in units of acre-feet per acre. Allocation values are presented in units of acre-feet.
