Mexicali Resiste Activist VS. Constellation Brands
MEDIA ADVISORY CONTACT: Tsux [email protected] for events occurring July 8, 2021 Genesis,[email protected] _______________________________________________________________Mayra Jimenez, 323-683-4687 Mexicali Resiste Activist VS. Constellation Brands: Activists demand WATER RIGHTS and FREEDOM Water rights activists threatened with false legal accusations for protesting U.S. based multinational Alcohol Corporation, Constellation Brands MEXICALI, BAJA CALIFORNIA (July 8, 2021) Mexicali Resiste, Water Rights Activists, will attend a court hearing for charges of “deprivation of liberty” of police and “dispossession” of the state building in connection with their involvement in protests against Constellation Brands in 2017. In 2017 the office of the State Attorney of Baja California determined that the current accusations did not deem criminal proceedings. However, the current congress of the state of Baja California has suddenly decided to reopen the case file and has scheduled a court hearing for July 8th, rescinding the previous resolution and once again presenting accusations against the water rights activists for protesting against corporate corruption and injustice. This comes as no surprise after Leon Fierro, one of the activists was wrongfully accused in 2018 of “attempted murder” against police, for participating in a protest and 20 days later freed after it as determined that there was no proof. Constellation Brands continues to threaten with privatizing local water in Baja California, Mexico, Mexicali Resiste fights back! What: Court Hearing When: Thursday, July 8th, 2021, at 1 p.m. Where: Unidad Judicial Calle Sur, Sala Fisica #7, colonia Bellavista in the city of Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico Who: Mexicali Resiste Why: Since January 2017, Mexicali Resiste has opposed the plans by Constellation Brands, a U.S. -
LOCAL SPOTLIGHT San Juan Watershed, Monterrey, Mexico—Adapting to Extreme Hydro-Meteorological Events
LOCAL SPOTLIGHT San Juan Watershed, Monterrey, Mexico—Adapting to extreme hydro-meteorological events Photo: © Juan Ángel Sánchez de Llanos The challenge NorthMONCL AmericOVa A Monterrey, Mexico, one of Latin America’s industrial capitals with a population of over 4 million, is an important economic center for residents and Mexico alike. Unfortunately, the city is positioned in an area that is naturally prone to intense hydro-meteorological events (floods and droughts). Because most (approximately 60 percent) of Monterrey’s drinking water supply comes from upstream areas that have been degraded on a recurring basis from land-use change and phenomena such as forest fires and invasive species, Monterrey is one of the top 25 Latin American cities for water risk. Climate events can be devastating. In 2010, Hurricane Alex cost the state of Nuevo León US$1.35 billion. Poor land management cannot be solely blamed for these losses, but it plays a role. Deforestation and erosion in the San Juan watershed, alongside rampant Rio Pesquería Rio San Juan and poorly planned expansion of urban areas, can reduce infiltration in recharge zones that, in turn, exacerbates runoff and can MONTERREY contribute to flooding. Future flood events are projected to intensify in the watershed, potentially exceeding the retention capacity of Rio Santa Catarina the existing dam that protects the city from high flows. SALTILLO Rio Ramos The year following Hurricane Alex, Monterrey was hit again, this time by a severe drought. The effects of the drought were made worse by the weakened storage and regulation capacity of upstream areas. The scarcity of water ultimately damaged over 50,000 hectares of crops and killed more than 10,000 livestock. -

Institutional Capacity and Performance in Water Utilities in the North of Mexico
Institutional capacity and performance in water utilities in the North of Mexico Alejandro Salazar Adams (El Colegio de Sonora) Edmundo Loera Burnes (Sonora state government) Noemi Haro Velarde (El Colegio de Sonora) Abstract The purpose of this study is to show the link between institutional capacity and performance in three water utilities in the north of Mexico (Hermosillo, Mexicali, and Saltillo). These utilities have similar weather, population, and economic development level, but they also have different outcome performance. These utilities also have different institutional frameworks: Hermosillo is a municipality owned utility, Mexicali is a state owned utility, and Saltillo is a public private partnership (PPP). The influence of these configurations on the institutional capacity is addressed by analyzing the political and institutional context of these utilities; their legal, technological and financial resources; and their human resources management. Introduction Urban water in Mexico has reached coverage levels higher than 90% in the last decades (Salazar and Lutz, 2016). However, water utilities in Mexico still have problems of high water loss levels, low cost recovery and lack of financial sustainability, which renders the operation of these utilities unsustainable in the long run. And despite of having a high percentage of urban dwellings connected to the water network, many cities cannot still provide a constant supply of water. Millions of pesos have been poured into new water infrastructure and programs directed towards improving the efficiency of water utilities, however, the average Mexican utility has a unaccounted for water of nearly 50%. These problems pose a threat to cities in the north of the country, where the arid climate constraints the supply of water and boosts the demand for it. -

Avocado Studies in Mexico in 1938
California Avocado Association 1938 Yearbook 23: 67-85 Avocado Studies in Mexico in 1938 A. D. SHAMEL Principal Physiologist, Division of Fruit and Vegetable Crops and Diseases United States Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Plant Industry The Fuerte is the most important commercial avocado variety grown in California, since more than seventy-five per cent of the acreage and production is of that variety. This relatively high proportion is increasing because the Fuerte trees in southern California have survived low winter temperatures more successfully than most other commercial varieties. The Fuerte variety originated as a bud propagation of the parent Fuerte tree (fig. 1) that is located in the Le Blanc garden at Atlixco, state of Puebla, Mexico. The next most important commercial variety, Puebla, has been propagated in southern California from buds of a tree in the Vicente Pineda garden (fig. 2) that is located near the Le Blanc garden. The buds from the parent trees of both the Fuerte and Puebla were obtained at the same time, 1911, by Carl B. Schmidt of Mexico City, and sent to the West India Gardens at Altadena, California. The recent visit of about fifty members of the California Avocado Association and friends to Atlixco on April 17, 1938, was for the purpose of unveiling a memorial tablet at the site of the Fuerte tree and presenting medals to Alejandro Le Blanc, son of the man who planted the parent Fuerte tree, and to Carl B. Schmidt, who sent the buds to California. Appropriate congratulatory speeches were made by the Governor of the state of Puebla, the Secretary of the Mexican Department of Agriculture representatives of the U. -
U.S. Railroad Retirement Board
FOM1 315 315.1 Supplemental Annuity Background 315.1.1 General In 1966 the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) began paying supplemental annuities, in addition to regular age and service annuities, to railroad employees who met certain criteria. At that time, eligibility for the supplemental annuity was limited to those employees who were age 65 or older with 25 or more years of railroad service and who were first awarded regular retirement annuities after June 30, 1966. The Railroad Retirement Act of 1974 (RRA) extended supplemental annuity eligibility to those employees who were age 60 or older with 30 or more years of service and who were first awarded regular age and service annuities after June 30, 1974. The 1981 Amendments to the RRA began phasing out the supplemental annuity by adding the requirement that the employee must have at least one month of creditable railroad service before October 1, 1981 to be eligible for the supplemental annuity. Therefore, a supplemental annuity is not payable to an employee who does not have at least one month of service before October 1, 1981, even if they meet all other age and service requirements. 315.1.2 Earliest Supplemental Annuity Eligibility Dates Under 1937 and 1974 Acts A. Earliest Eligibility Dates The date an age and service annuity or disability annuity is awarded is the voucher date of the award, i.e., the date the award is processed for payment. Beginning in 1966, the employee’s age and service annuity had to be vouchered after June 1966 for them to be eligible for a supplemental annuity at age 65 with at least 25 years of service. -
