Political Scenario

2006 Elections:The political parties are in the process of selecting their candidates; there is no glimpse yet of a candidate with a high popular support.

•The PRI’s adversary will be the search for credibility from the population, as well as the conciliation of the internal conflicts.

•The PAN’s adversary will be the voters themselves, who did not perceive the party as the real change.

•PRD’s adversaries will be abstention from voting, the expenditure in promotion and image and the emergence of new leftist options.

•For the first time, the 4.3 million Mexicans in the United States will be able to vote, which may be important for the presidential elections, since they represent 6.3% of the electoral census in Mexico (68.4 million).

RULING LAWS AND REGULATIONS

FOR TOURISM DEVELOPMENTS

•In terms of environmental regulations, basic terms are defined in the Constitution of Mexico in it’s 4th article: “Every person has the right for an appropiate environment in order to find prosperity.”

• Articlr 27 underlines that “The property of land and water inside the national territory belongs to the nation, having by that the right to regulate the use of the natural resources, assure it’s conservation, preserve and restore the ecological equilibrium, in order to achieve an equilibrate development of the country.”

• There is also the General Law of Ecological Equilibrium and the Protection of the Environment (LGEEPA) as well as the Official Mexican Rulings (NOM’S). Their goal si to preserve and restore the ecological equilibrium.

Page 47: 1 2005 NACF Meeting AGC – CCA - CMIC September, 2005

47

•In order to obtain authorization to develop a tourism resort, an evaluation of the environmental impact needs to be done, as it is defined in article 28 of the General Law of Ecological Equilibrium and Environment Protection :

“The Environmental Impact Evaluation is the procedure through wich the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) establishes the conditions for construction and activities that might cause unstable ecosystems or avoid the limits and conditions establish in the appropiate laws to protect the environment and preserve the ecosystems, in order to reduce to the minimum the negative effects on the environment....”

Project should be developed according to local urban plans and the federal ecological ruling, declarations of indangered species and other laws that might apply.

Page 48: 1 2005 NACF Meeting AGC – CCA - CMIC September, 2005

48

The official laws that have more impact on Tourism developments are:

NOM-022-SEMARNAT-2003, Establishes the specifications to preserve and watch the ustaintability of the coast zones with mangrove.

NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2001, Protects the native mexican species of silvester flora and fauna at risk.

PROY-NOM-140-SEMARNAT-2005, Establishes the general environmental requirements to develop golf courses and resorts that include them.

Page 49: 1 2005 NACF Meeting AGC – CCA - CMIC September, 2005

49

Tourism is an activity that can increase the value of local ecosystems, and integrates the people to the town, city or municipality development, wich is more important during the transition from rural municipalities to urban developments.

It’s an economic activity that might sustain the environmental conditions and who’s responsability belongs to the nation.

Environmental legislation in a major component in any tourism develpment in Mexico, essencial to prevent future damages, and to prepare how to deal with problems.

Parametric costs of different types of buildingsParametric costs of different types of buildings

Costs are per square feet and at direct cost, and therefore, they do not include indirect costs, utility, project costs or the value of land.

The type of materials, such as construction materials, are different in each country, and costs may vary depending on the particular features of each project.

Research and Innovation

Page 63: 1 2005 NACF Meeting AGC – CCA - CMIC September, 2005

The Mexican Construction Industry has made important contributions in areas such as:

The research by the UNAM Engineering Institute, regarding the solution of maritime, pluvial and seismic problems, through mathematical and physics models.

Maritime Engineering. In the construction of ports, where the advancement in physical models for the construction of rock fills and breakwaters stands out.

Hydraulic Engineering. In the construction of dams, such as “El Cajon” dam, which is currently under construction in Nayarit.

Seismic Engineering. The mathematical models that allow to revise the structures and design them according to the different earthquake intensities.

Application of construction processes, as in the construction of “Puente Chiapas” bridge, where marine platforms’ engineering procedures were adapted for the first time to the construction of bridges.

E l C a j o n DamE l C a j o n Dam(Example of innovations)(Example of innovations)Work Information

The construction of “El Cajon” dam represents one of the greatest achievements of the Mexican engineering.

It is located in the state of Nayarit, at a distance of 47 kilometers from the city of Tepic.

It will have a core wall with a height of 186 meters, making it the most important in the Country. The core wall is rock filled with concrete face, and is one of the highest core walls of its type world-wide. 10.9 million m3 of rock will be used.

Work duration: 54 months, it will be completed in 2007

Cost: $810 Million USD

Generation capacity: 750MW

The contributions of “El Cajon” dam to dam engineering and hydraulic works are the following relevant aspects:

E l C a j o n D a m(Example of innovations)

Access was provided through the 43 kilometer road in 9 months. Diversion tunnels with built up rugosity were built, which duplicate reliability in only 9 months.

The enginehouse was excavated in 9 months. The world practice in the design of this type of dams was innovated, with the inclusion of transition zones.

Materials are being placed in the core wall with an average of 500,000 m3, and it is estimated that 800,000 m3 will be achieved monthly.

Work Information

Located in the reservoir of the Netzahualcoyotl dam, in the state of Chiapas.

This work is part of the Mexico-Tuxtla Gutierrez highway.

Work duration: 60 months.

Cost: $ 1,684 Million pesos.

The bridge is solved by means of a metallic structure, both in its substructure and superstructure, and its length is 1,208 m, with a roadway width of 10 m.

The substructure consists of an abutment of reinforced concrete and seven “Jacket”-type bearings, which are built with tubes with an external diameter of 2.78 m.

In this work, innovative procedures were used, such as:

The superstructure pushing, which allowed to free 168 m spans five times, which meant a new world record for pushed bridges.

Use of procedures that had never been used before in Mexico and the world, which are a combination of off shore engineering for marine platforms adapted to the construction of bridges.
