4. 11:15–11:25 HANDOUT: Mexico’s Maquiladoras PARTNERS! Read the following article. Underline important information. What presumptionscan you BOTH make 1) with data 2) about Mexico’s situation with the maquiladoras? Environmental policies have not always been enforced.[21] Although the La Paz Agreement signed by Mexico and the United States in 1983 requires hazardous waste created by United States corporations to be transported back to the U.S. for disposal, most companies avoid paying disposal costs by dumping toxins and other waste into Mexico’s rivers or deserts. The United States Environmental Protection Agency reports that only 91 of the 600 maquiladoras located along the Texas-Mexico border have returned hazardous waste to the United States since 1987.[22] In Mexico, some maquiladoras lack proper waste management facilities and the ability to clean up disposal sites, which is why some of the hazardous waste is illegally disposed of.[22] Environmental hazards associated with some maquiladoras include polluted rivers and contaminated drinking water. According to the Southwest Consortium for Environmental Research and Policy (SCERP), all streams and rivers in the border region have been ecologically devastated as a consequence of the maquila industry.[23]Employment in the maquiladora industry in Mexico, however, is down 20 percent from its peak in October 2000, when 1.3 million workers were employed.
