Complying with Conagua and Protecting Water Concessions: Navigating Turbulent Waters

25/04/2025
Published in LexLatin

In this article published in LexLatin, Enrique Muñoz Guízar, counsel, and Georgina J. Zavala González, associate at Pérez-Llorca, examine the implications of the 2024–2030 National Water Plan and the actions of Mexico's National Water Commission (Conagua) on water concessions.

The authors point out that, although Conagua’s requests for the voluntary cession of water use rights are optional, refusal could lead to administrative or fiscal proceedings if non-compliance is detected. In this context, they emphasize the importance for concessionaires to conduct internal audits to ensure compliance with legal obligations and avoid potential sanctions. This analysis is crucial for companies and entities managing water concessions in Mexico.
