Considerations - Post-2025. A position has not been formally expressed regarding implementation of an Upper Basin Demand Management Program after 2025. The Parties acknowledge and expect that operation and implementation of an Upper Basin Demand Management Program following the Term of this Demand Management Storage Agreement will be informed by and considered as part of the Secretary’s formal review to evaluate the effectiveness of the 2007 Interim Guidelines in consultation with the seven Colorado River Basin States, which is scheduled to begin no later than December 31, 2020. (See Section XI.G.7.D of 2007 Interim Guidelines). The Upper Division States and the Commission also acknowledge and expect that, at a minimum, any Upper Basin Demand Management Program implemented after 2025 would include the terms for feasibility and program development set forth in Section III.B.1 and III.B.2.a of this Demand Management Storage Agreement as well as the findings and approval provisions set forth herein.
