Nov 25 (Reuters) - The State Department said on Tuesday that U.S. officials met with Mexican counterparts to discuss steps Mexico would take to reduce shortfalls in water deliveries and "ensure compliance with the 1944 Water Treaty."

A State Department statement added that Washington continued "to evaluate all available options to ensure Mexico complies with its water delivery obligations."

"The officials examined available water resources and the United States pressed for the maximum possible deliveries to Texas users," the State Department said.
