Hi there. I know about the ley de transparencia but how to find out about a particular study? I dunno where to start. I looked at the INEGI site the above poster mentioned and another on ron or something but this was all land issues. Perhaps there's an issue with the land over the san juan londo aquifer? who knows?

hurricane Lisa? no thanks don't want a category 3 within 100 miles of here but a nice cat 1 hitting about 8 miles south of town would significantly aid in increasing the level of the aquifers south of town.

John was tropical storm and stayed with us for 36 hours and gave us over a foot of rainfall. It all ran off, or maybe 99.9999% ran off the rest stagnated throughout town creating mosquito breeding area. One storm will not significantly increase the level of the water table here. The aquifers are here because of tens of thousands of years worth of "storms of the century". Another thing, when rains do come here they tend to be very localized so building dams to divert into specific areas may be all for naught.

finally on Sandra Dibble, I did write her when she was mentioned in posts several weeks ago, but whatever I said, maybe it was the "I challenge you to write an investigative article on...." part that scared her off, I never received a response.
:no:

Debris along with 80 Tons of Gravel was washed out 7 miles from the Beach of Loreto. Traffic could not get across the Arroyo to Saragosa for Days. Donkeys and Coral Snakes were washed into a Pile of Debris 3 Feet Tall in front of the Hotel Oasis.
Can you imagine what would happen to the Arroyo at San Bruno as Well? And since they Bulldosed the two Arroyos together at Miramar, it is an Accident waiting to Happen.

Good Luck to All if when it happens.

Skeet I am working on photo documentaries on the contrasts of living here. Miramar as it is today is a large part of that since I live in Miramar. It is a major disaster waiting to happen. The town cannot process all the land requests of the people in need of housing so they are squating wherever they possibly can. In the report that Hippie posted on another thread, Loreto Bay says they plan to aquire 15 hectares west of Miramar. Then where will all the people go? Miramar is the final frontier because it is close enough to walk into town and there are services fairly nearby. Filling, excavating and major changing of arroyos has and continues to take place. John hit us and we got off easy but Loreto has the potential of becoming a disaster in several areas including the town center. So glad I am pretty high up and not in or near an arroyo or on the beach. The shoreline is the most dangerous place one can be in a hurricane.

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT


Sorry Flyfishingpam!

Did not look back at this thread . . all that is required is a letter requesting the information - there are restrictions - criminal findings, defence etc. but for ordinary civil matters, a government deprtment MUST respond within (I think) 40 working days.

You don't need an attorney to do this, but if you would like to speak to mine (he does not speak English) or need the address of the fed department, U2U me.
