There are several environmental processes occurring under aquifer overexploitation conditions. These processes include groundwater table decline, subsidence, attenuation and drying of springs, decrease of river flow, and increased pollution vulnerability, among others processes. Some of these effects have been observed on the Upper Basin of the Lerma River. The Lerma River begins in the SE of the Valley of Toluca at 2,600 m asl, in the wetland known as Lagoons of Almoloya del Río. This wetland is made up of a group of lagoons, which are an important aquatic system from an environmental point of view. The water inflow of this wetland is a discharge of springs, which occur between the fractured volcanic material of the mountain range and granular volcanic–continental deposits of the Valley of Toluca aquifer. The intensive exploitation of the Valley of Toluca aquifer to supply urban and industrial water to Mexico City and Toluca began in 1950 and is responsible for a steady decline of piezometric levels of 1–3.5 m/yr. Other effects of this exploitation—the drying of the wetland, the decrease of river flow and the land subsidence—caused serious ecological and social impacts. The authorities declared this aquifer as overexploited in order to reduce the exploitation and preserve the availability of water resources in this important region.

La seguridad hídrica debe ser el objetivo estratégico de la política del agua en México. Es respecto de este principio normativo que debe evaluarse la situación actual de los recursos hídricos, en calidad y cantidad, así como de la gestión del agua en práctica. En este texto se elabora un diagnóstico general de la seguridad hídrica en México, así como de los retos que enfrenta ahora y en el futuro cercano. Se analiza la disponibilidad y escasez con un enfoque territorial, así como la condición de los acuíferos, la calidad del agua superficial y subterránea y los usos del agua. Se abordan los principales desafíos para la seguridad hídrica y las tendencias en las fuerzas modeladoras más relevantes. Para atender la problemática descrita, se proponen acciones específicas y, como conclusión general, la necesidad de una reforma del agua en México.
