CFE Confirms dam

An official of the Federal Electricity Commission has confirmed a plan to build a dam on the Usumacinta, according to Tabasco Hoy. The article gives figures for area affected and number of archaeological sites, and points out that neither Mexico or Guatemala have submitted plans to the Comisión Internacional de Límites y Aguas entre México y Guatemala (CILAMyG), a binational commission established in 1961 to review and approve any river projects.
