Except for rare and temporary periods. the middle of the river will be the boundary wherever it separates the two countries. When there is more than one channel the boundary will run in the center of the wider or widest channel regardless of its depth. No farmer. border patrol officer. smuggler or illegal entrant will ever have reason to doubt where that boundary is. Similarly. off the coasts we share with Mexico the maritime boundaries will be forever fixed to a distance of 12 miles. Determined on the equitable principle of equidistance. well marked and easily ascertainable. these boundaries will serve those who fish the waters or explore the seabed.
