In August 2011, Judge Valentine approved an agreement between agricultural groups and the State Engineer’s Office that set maximum water deliveries to agricultural land in the Lower Rio Grande Basin. The Farm Delivery Requirement (FDR) for combined surface and groundwater use is 4.5 acre feet per year. Farmers with unique farm conditions can file notice up to December 31, 2011 of their intent to ask for up to 5.5 acre feet based on proof of beneficial use.
