 At present, Argentina has 43 ports (out of which, seven are seaports) and more than 50 airports (Ministry of Transportation, 2016).  The port of Buenos Aires and the Jorge Newbery and Ministro Pistarini Ezeiza airports are the most important of the country, as they are the departure and destination points for most of the international trade. Other significant ports are located in the cities of La Plata, Bahía Blanca, San Antonio Oeste and Madryn as well as those located along Río Paraná (Rosario, San Lorenzo, Santa Fe, Barranqueras, San Nicolás and Campana). The airports of Mar del Plata, Córdoba and Rosario are also quite busy.  The Customs General Administration is the Government agency in charge of the regulatory framework of the Argentine port system. The Aviation Administration is in charge of issuing and enforcing regulations applicable to the airport network.  The table below presents the detail of the current port and airport projects in Argentina.

 Argentina faces five important challenges in the drinking  The Hydric Resources Office, through the Public Works water supply and sanitation sector: (i) limited coverage and Bureau, submits the policies of the sector for the large supply of services compared to earnings; (ii) poor consideration of the Department of Planning, Public quality, which requires increased investments; and (iii) Investment and Utilities in charge of approving them. high levels of contamination in sources and recipients. The Within this political framework, the National Entity of drinking water supply service covers 96% of population. Sanitation Hydric Works (ENOHSA), a decentralized Together, Argentina and Uruguay are the region leaders entity reporting to the Hydric Resources Office, provides (considering Latin America and the Caribbean) in providing financing and technical assistance to the service providers. access to drinking water to 91% of their population on average.  No national law of water and sanitation has been issued yet, though some provinces already have one. This situation  According to the National Census of year 2010, 83.9% of hinders the progress towards a national and consistent the Argentinians use the public water system as the main law involving issues such as financing, subsidies, rates source of water for drinking and cooking, 14.8% use water and service standards.

 Regarding sanitation, the sewage drainage is insufficient  Fourteen out of the 23 provinces have regulatory authorities to manage the increasing flow as long as more and more that have limited capacity and institutional responsibilities residential dwellings are connected to the system, which that are not well defined. causes frequent overflows.  In the metropolitan areas of Buenos Aires, there are two  Sewage treatment varies greatly from province to province agencies: one in charge of planning and the other in charge in the country. According to the Pan American Health of service control. Organization (PHO), at a national level, 10% of sewage was treated in 1999. In the capital cities of some provinces,  The regulatory authorities are all met in AFERAS, the such as Mendoza, Córdoba, Tucumán, Neuquén, Jujuy, Association of Regulators of Water Supply and Sanitation of Salta and San Juan, most of sewage was treated, whereas the Republic of Argentina. in the two biggest urban areas, Buenos Aires and Rosario, the treatment is lower than the country’s average, which poses serious environmental hazards.

In this scenario, the new investments to be made in the  The Argentine Government has adopted different policies oil and gas sector are essential as well as in other projects and entered into agreements with foreign companies in destined to the production of energy (hydropower plants, order to create an environment suitable for the growth such as Chihuidos I or Cepernic-Kirchner). of the oil and gas industry as well as other sources of  Argentine energy matrix heavily relies on hydrocarbons renewable energy. Accordingly, we can mention the (about 86% thereof). Hydraulic energy accounts for less Hydrocarbons Law (No. 27.007) aimed at fostering the than 5%, and nuclear power accounts for 2%. However, production of unconventional hydrocarbons and the the heavy dependence on hydrocarbons for generating offshore exploitation, or the referred Renewable Energy energy is not a recent condition. From 1990 to 2013, the Law (No. 27.191). Additionally, it is worth mentioning that, contribution of hydrocarbons resources to the energy recently, measures have been adopted to put an end to matrix increased from 86% to 87%, according to the the anachronistic rate freeze in the energy market (for the statistical information provided by the Energy Department residential consumption of both electricity and gas), which and CAMMESA. Therefore, the projects aimed at the will enable a progressive adjustment by the generation, generation of renewable resources have increased in transportation and distribution companies, while importance over the last years, not only in connection encouraging production and investment.
