Loreto & it's sewer in the streets problem
Heading north from Cabo tomorrow. anything changed in Loreto regarding bacterial threat? Been two weeks, and was awful then. Hopefully, some 'funds'
for clean up has occurred by now. Sure was a surprise when we had gotten there. Local friends are very concerned about their health until this is
resolved.

As of Thursday, samo, samo.
Apparently the government felt it was more important for:
1: Funding a 4 lane highway going South for a few miles
2: An unfinished Malecon.
3: Paved streets and curbs next to the airport that goes to nowhere.
Seriously, do you think that Mexico City really knows about the sewer problem in Loreto? I would like to think that they do not as they sit in their
ivory towers as most politicians in the world do, they would do something about what I perceive a major health problem.

Well, wouldnt it be up to the political representative from Loreto to inform Mexico City of the problem?
Sounds like a good muckraking (literally) opportunity for the local paper to get it more visible.

Maybe Mexico City does know about it and that's why it designated Loreto as a Pueblo Mágico.

Where is the sewer water at. I was in Loreto on the 18 and 19th and there was water on the main drag near the Malecon. I thought it was from the sea
at high tide but was told by the locals in Augie's that it was ground water from the mountains. It didn't smell.

The sewage problem is mostly on the north side of town, on Calle Davis, Madero, and in vacant lots in that area. The water on Jaurez and Hidalgo is
different, clean fresh water from springs that renew when the water table is high, as it is now from the fall rain.
