Residents of San Jerónimo de El Verde, located 13 km (8.1 mi) from Concordia, protested against water shortages in February 2021. Felipe Garzón López, mayor of Concordia, (
PRI) blamed population increases and the drying of artisanal wells in El Palmito, Pastoría, Malpica, Amboscada, Huajote, Agua Caliente de Garate, Guásima and El Verde for water shortages. He said the solution is connection to the Picachos Dam and reservoir, as promised by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador in December 2020.[1]
