Usumacinta report - CSF

I met some of the authors of this report in 2006, and I was concerned that they were too narrowly focussed on energy benefits while minimizing the environmental and cultural impacts. The final report shows that they considered all issues, and concluded that by almost any measure it was not feasible.

The report analyzed the project with four criteria in mind: financial feasibility; economic efficiency; the distribution of costs and benefits; and environmental sustainability.
