Claudia Sheinbaum cancels La Parota dam, launches water projects and delivers Women Bienestar pensions in Acapulco
President Claudia Sheinbaum handed out Women Bienestar pension cards to beneficiaries in Acapulco, a program that reaches about 3 million women nationwide and roughly 70 000 in Guerrero, including 17 955 in Acapulco, with a bimonthly payment of 3 100 pesos. She announced the permanent cancellation of the La Parota hydroelectric dam project, citing its adverse impact on local communities. As an alternative, the federal government is investing 8 billion pesos in water‑infrastructure works: construction of radial wells, elevated storage tanks, pumping stations, renewal of water‑network lines, five new water‑treatment plants, modernization of nine sewage‑treatment facilities (2 400 L/s capacity), 30 km of collectors and flood‑protection measures such as river desilting and canal cleaning. The measures aim to restore and improve water supply after the damage caused by Hurricanes Otis and John. She also noted that Acapulco’s hotel occupancy has risen to 78 percent as tourism rebounds following the hurricanes.
