A Proposal for Developing Desired Future Conditions for the Big Bend Reach of the Rio Grande

Description

The aim of this report is to provide background information and a proposed operating framework that US and Mexican state and federal land and natural resource management agencies can use in making collaborative decisions relating to that portion of the Rio Grande that extends from its confluence with the Río Conchos, at Presidio, Texas, to the Amistad Reservoir, on such topics as: engaging additional stakeholders to develop and refine the shared vision for the river; developing operational guidelines and a set of desired future conditions for this reach of the river; and identifying rehabilitation, monitoring, and research priorities. The Big Bend-Río Bravo Steering Committee associated with this project reviewed this document.
