Años Demanda total Población By the year 2025, the State of Mexico will have a population of 19 million inhabitants, 70% concentrated in metropolitan areas, which will demand 108 m3/s. of water, 17 m3/s more compared to /06/2005 Free Template from 11
12 The Integral Hydraulic Program of the State of Mexico, unique in the country, was elaborated based at the previous diagnosis, as a governing instrument in the entity hydraulic policy and as a basis for ordering and orienting current and future actions, to attend the population demand and achieve hydraulic resource sustainability. Among the principles attended by this program, we find: equitable allotment and integral management of water resources, recognition of its social, economic and ecological value, establishment of tariffs that reflect the real cost of running water supply, inclusion of all entity sectors into the preservation of water and the solution of its problematic. 23/06/2005 Free Template from 12
