U.S.-Mexico Border 2012
Binational Policy Forums
Policy Forums meet annually, concentrating on specific policy issues that require an ongoing dialogue between both countries. These forums identify, prioritize and address and resolve border-wide, binational, federal policy issues and target resources for regionally-based projects that emphasize pollution prevention. Policy Forums are guided by the priorities of their respective nations, the needs identified by Regional and Border-wide Workgroups and, in some cases, address Task Force and project efforts. Each Policy Forum has a federal co-chair located at EPA and SEMARNAT headquarters.
Three Policy Forums address border issues and provide technical assistance to Regional and Border-wide Workgroups in the following areas: Water, Air, and Waste.
