Looking towards the future, we want to:

• Promote a new water and ecological culture.

• Strengthen our drinking water utilities.

• Fair payment for drinking water and wastewater collection and treatment services.

• Efficient water use.

• Reduction of water losses in public urban and agricultural uses (40%).

• Foster social participation. • through the River Basin Commission.• by creating a public-private fund.

• Respect urban development and ecological land-use programs.

• To preserve and restore protected natural areas in the Apatlaco River Basin.

• To reverse environmental deterioration in the basin and promote and guide sustainable development of productive activities.

Conclusions

• The Government of the State of Morelos is developing and implementing a policy that establishes clear criteria for sustainable utilization of water resources in the Apatlaco River Basin that are in harmony with the protected natural areas located in the northern part of the basin and also with the areas in the southern part of the basin where water is used for urban and agricultural purposes.

• There are plans to reverse infrastructure lags in the river basin, making it possible to collect and treat 75% of the wastewater generated by the basin’s 850 thousand inhabitants by the year 2012.

• The scope of this project includes promoting actions to strengthen drinking water utilities in this river basin so that they may be self-financing by means of the application of fees for users to pay for drinking water distribution services in the basin, as well as for services related to wastewater collection and treatment.

• We need to promote participation by society in river basin and water management so that people take part in decision-making and also in actions that are taken in the future.
