The report of a 30-month study, with recommendations for scientists and policy makers. It reviews the hydrogeological characteristics of the Basin of Mexico; discusses the history and consequences of groundwater exploitation; describes the various sources of water supplying Mexico City (as well as the operation of distribution systems, water treatment, wastewater treatment, and water reuse programs); explores the vulnerability of the aquifer to contamination; considers approaches to achieve more equitable water service and fiscal stability; and examines recent changes in water policy and some of the institutional challenges for better water quality.
