Environmental advocates acknowledge there is political will between Mexico and the United States to address the beach pollution crisis, but they also recognize funding is lacking to build sewage-mitigation projects. “If having meetings and signing agreements resolved the problem, there wouldn’t be any problem,” said Fay Crevoshay, director of communications and public policy for WILDCOAST, an environmental group in San Diego. … Crevoshay says Mexico has committed $59 million in state and federal funds to launch seven projects, including the rehabilitation of various collectors and two sewage-pumping stations, money yet to be delivered.
