This IMI presents an overview of what are expected to be the environmental priorities for Mexico's new administration. The new administration in Mexico has mentioned the following as priority areas for development over the next six years. -Review the present environmental standards (NOM's). Make changes to increase the compliance of micro, small and mid-sized companies. -Study ways the private sector can participate in the development of infrastructure to treat and dispose of industrial waste. Implement programs to facilitate this. -Launch special programs for large private consumers of potable water to encourage the use of recycled water. -Increase federal expenditures on environmental infrastructure along the Mexico -U.S. border. 2.
