As \u003cem>The California Report's\u003c/em> Central Valley Bureau Chief based in Fresno for nearly a dozen years, Sasha brought the lives and concerns of rural Californians to listeners around the state. Her reporting helped expose the hidden price immigrant women janitors and farmworkers may pay to keep their jobs: sexual assault at work. It inspired two new California laws to protect them from sexual harassment. She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R.

However, if you control for the number of people doing these activities, abalone divers are most at risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Abalone divers are most at risk with a 1 in 1.44 million chance of being attacked. Surfers have a 1 in 17 million chance of a shark attack. People going to the beach, just swimming, have a one in 700 million chance to have a shark bite,” says Ferretti.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Humans are not the preferred prey of sharks. Our stringy bodies are far less appetizing than a fat-packed seal, the chubby dumpling of the ocean. This might explain why sharks occasionally bite surfers, because from below, they kind of look like seals.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignleft\">\n\u003ch5>To mitigate shark attacks, the Hawaiian government culled over 4,500 sharks between 1959 and 1976. But according to the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology, the program was ineffective in reducing the number of shark attacks. Now some experts believe that governments can make the ocean safer by protecting the shark’s food source and ecosystem.\u003c/h5>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“Sharks explore potential prey by biting it,” Ferretti says. “They bite otters as well. As they grow and learn about potential food sources, sometimes they make a mistake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To reduce your risk, you could surf outside the hot spots or avoid the water at certain times of year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To help remember riskier months, some use the term “Sharktober.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s when white sharks are around the Bay Area,” says Jorgensen. “October, November is pretty much the peak, then that tapers off in January when the sharks are moving offshore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they aren’t in the Red Triangle, our great white sharks swim in the waters around Hawaii, or in an area halfway between here and Hawaii called the White Shark Cafe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The White Shark Cafe is a really desolate part of the ocean. There’s not a lot going on when you look at it from space,” says Jorgensen.“In fact it was called the Desert of the Pacific by many oceanographers. I always think about it a little bit like Burning Man. We have got these Bay Area sharks out here in Central California and once a year they head off into the desert. God knows what they’re doing out there. But we’re trying to find out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11657625\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-11657625\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\"The face of a great white shark.\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059370-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The face of a great white shark. \u003ccite>(Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Declining Risk\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Between 1950 and 2013, there was an average of 1.37 white shark attacks per year, with an increasing trend from .9 attacks per year in the 1950s to 1.5 attacks per year in the last decade of the study. In that time there were 13 recorded shark fatalities in California and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sharkattackfile.net/spreadsheets/pdf_directory/1959.05.07-Kogler_Collier.pdf\">only one near the San Francisco Bay\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the number of shark encounters in California has gone up, the risk has dropped about 90 percent between 1950 and 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have an increasing population all around the world. If you put more people in the water you would expect more encounters with sharks,” says Jorgensen. “But what we’ve seen in California is that encounters and injuries inflicted by sharks have increased a little bit over the past 50 years but the number of people in the water has increased immensely, so that ratio has decreased.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reduced risk could be a sign of a declining shark population.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignleft\">\n\u003ch5>A number of “shark repellents” are now on the market. One wristband sends out electromagnetic signals meant to upset a shark’s electromagnetic sense. Another repellent uses “extract of dead shark” to freak out sharks with the smell of their own dead. Jorgensen says it’s hard to run scientific studies on these repellents’ efficacy. “It’s not super convincing, and in one case there was a controversy of whether that actually attracted the shark more or repelled it more,” he says.\u003c/h5>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“There are on average about 10 human fatalities per year worldwide. If you compare that to the number of sharks that have died at humans hands, that is more on the order of 50 to 100 million sharks per year,” says Jorgensen. “The equation is it’s very one-sided there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Ferretti, most sharks are killed through industrial fishing and the fin trade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are dying on the high seas, and many are targeted for their fins,” Ferretti says, adding that sometimes a shark’s death is unintentional, “Blue sharks, silky sharks, hammerheads and thresher sharks, those are the species that can be caught as bycatch in large quantities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Hopkins Marine Station, Ferretti works in a lab where researchers are developing innovative tools to combat illegal fishing in the high seas. They’re looking into creating tags that would detect illegal fishing, and drones that could patrol the waters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lab also studies movement patterns and the distribution of sharks throughout the ocean. They’ve been researching what shark populations looked like before industrial fishing killed millions. Lately they’ve also been looking at the importance of sharks in protected and thriving ecosystems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11657628\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-11657628 size-large\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059365-1020x608.jpg\" alt=\"Cage Diving With Great White Sharks\" width=\"640\" height=\"381\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cage-diving with great white sharks \u003ccite>(Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“As apex predators, they help stabilize entire ecosystems. When sharks are thinned out at the top, animals further down the food chain can become overhunted,” says Ferretti. “For example, a scallop fishery in North Carolina was decimated due to a declining shark population.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriousquestion]\u003c/p>\n\n",

Surfers have a 1 in 17 million chance of a shark attack. People going to the beach, just swimming, have a one in 700 million chance to have a shark bite,” says Ferretti.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Humans are not the preferred prey of sharks. Our stringy bodies are far less appetizing than a fat-packed seal, the chubby dumpling of the ocean. This might explain why sharks occasionally bite surfers, because from below, they kind of look like seals.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignleft\">\n\u003ch5>To mitigate shark attacks, the Hawaiian government culled over 4,500 sharks between 1959 and 1976. But according to the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology, the program was ineffective in reducing the number of shark attacks. Now some experts believe that governments can make the ocean safer by protecting the shark’s food source and ecosystem.\u003c/h5>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“Sharks explore potential prey by biting it,” Ferretti says. “They bite otters as well. As they grow and learn about potential food sources, sometimes they make a mistake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To reduce your risk, you could surf outside the hot spots or avoid the water at certain times of year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To help remember riskier months, some use the term “Sharktober.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s when white sharks are around the Bay Area,” says Jorgensen. “October, November is pretty much the peak, then that tapers off in January when the sharks are moving offshore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they aren’t in the Red Triangle, our great white sharks swim in the waters around Hawaii, or in an area halfway between here and Hawaii called the White Shark Cafe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The White Shark Cafe is a really desolate part of the ocean. There’s not a lot going on when you look at it from space,” says Jorgensen.“In fact it was called the Desert of the Pacific by many oceanographers. I always think about it a little bit like Burning Man. We have got these Bay Area sharks out here in Central California and once a year they head off into the desert. God knows what they’re doing out there.

In that time there were 13 recorded shark fatalities in California and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sharkattackfile.net/spreadsheets/pdf_directory/1959.05.07-Kogler_Collier.pdf\">only one near the San Francisco Bay\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the number of shark encounters in California has gone up, the risk has dropped about 90 percent between 1950 and 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have an increasing population all around the world. If you put more people in the water you would expect more encounters with sharks,” says Jorgensen. “But what we’ve seen in California is that encounters and injuries inflicted by sharks have increased a little bit over the past 50 years but the number of people in the water has increased immensely, so that ratio has decreased.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reduced risk could be a sign of a declining shark population.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignleft\">\n\u003ch5>A number of “shark repellents” are now on the market. One wristband sends out electromagnetic signals meant to upset a shark’s electromagnetic sense. Another repellent uses “extract of dead shark” to freak out sharks with the smell of their own dead. Jorgensen says it’s hard to run scientific studies on these repellents’ efficacy. “It’s not super convincing, and in one case there was a controversy of whether that actually attracted the shark more or repelled it more,” he says.\u003c/h5>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“There are on average about 10 human fatalities per year worldwide. If you compare that to the number of sharks that have died at humans hands, that is more on the order of 50 to 100 million sharks per year,” says Jorgensen. “The equation is it’s very one-sided there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Ferretti, most sharks are killed through industrial fishing and the fin trade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are dying on the high seas, and many are targeted for their fins,” Ferretti says, adding that sometimes a shark’s death is unintentional, “Blue sharks, silky sharks, hammerheads and thresher sharks, those are the species that can be caught as bycatch in large quantities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Hopkins Marine Station, Ferretti works in a lab where researchers are developing innovative tools to combat illegal fishing in the high seas. They’re looking into creating tags that would detect illegal fishing, and drones that could patrol the waters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lab also studies movement patterns and the distribution of sharks throughout the ocean. They’ve been researching what shark populations looked like before industrial fishing killed millions. Lately they’ve also been looking at the importance of sharks in protected and thriving ecosystems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11657628\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-11657628 size-large\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/03/GettyImages-92059365-1020x608.jpg\" alt=\"Cage Diving With Great White Sharks\" width=\"640\" height=\"381\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cage-diving with great white sharks \u003ccite>(Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“As apex predators, they help stabilize entire ecosystems.

"content": "\u003cp>It's a blustery day in the border town of Mexicali in Baja California, Mexico, and five men are huddled inside a makeshift encampment covered with protest signs outside the city's government offices. The intense wind makes the tarps serving as walls flap loudly, like Batman's cape as he propels down a building. And just like Batman, they say they're there for justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jesus Galaz Duarte, Mauricio Villa, Alberto Salcido, Francisco Javier Trujillo and Jorge Benitez all form part of Mexicali Resiste, an activist group fighting the opening of a new brewery by the Fortune 500 company Constellation Brands. Constellation makes wines, spirits and beer, including Corona, Modelo and Pacifico, as well as beers from craft brewer Ballast Point. The company has set up offices in the city, and is working with the local government to build a $1.5 billion brewery that will use local water to make beer for American consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brewery is \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbrands.com/news/articles/constellation-brands-to-build-new-10-million-hectoliter-brewery-in-mexicali-mexico-and-further-expand-its-nava-brewery-to-fuel-the-continued-industry-leading-growth-of-its-beer-business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">slated to open in about five years\u003c/a>, and plans to invest another $500 million for infrastructure, land and water rights to double production over time. It will initially make 10 million hectoliters of beer (roughly 264 million gallons), according to the company press release. Constellation Brands says it will use 3.5 liters of water from local wells to produce one liter of beer, amounting to 1.8 billion gallons of water a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While not a drop of the beer would go to the Mexican market, Constellation Brands says the brewery will create 750 permanent jobs in Mexicali.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But members of Mexicali Resiste say the negative impacts far outweigh the possible benefits and are hoping to stop Goliath in his tracks. They've set up encampments, held marches and led protests that have in some cases erupted in violence. Videos showing members \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/ajplusespanol/videos/1770264503025891/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">throwing rocks and being bloodied by police batons \u003c/a>have gone viral. Members also claim to have been harassed and threatened, beaten and had their offices burglarized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a model of exploitation and capitalism where they basically come for the natural resources to exploit them and take them away to wherever the market is,\" says Galaz Duarte. \"When the market grows and has to satisfy consumers, they're going to deplete the water here. So what's going to happen? They're going to go to another place where there's more water to satisfy the same market and deplete their water. They're going to leave this region without the resources to live a dignified life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A strained water system\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Water is a precious commodity, especially in Mexicali and many neighboring cities where it isn't uncommon to wake up in the morning to find there's no running water. About four hours southeast of Los Angeles, Mexicali's temperatures are the highest in all of Mexico, reaching up to 125 degrees. Local agriculture heavily relies on municipal water sources and the Colorado River, as there's virtually no rainfall throughout the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 300,000 people in Baja California live without regular access to water, and nearly 6 percent of households lack running water. Tijuana and Mexicali are hit hardest, \u003ca href=\"https://www.gob.mx/cms/uploads/attachment/file/288978/Baja_California.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mexico's government reports.\u003c/a> However, the count includes only water for bathing, washing, gardening, etc. Mexico's tap water is unsafe to drink, so drinking water has to be purchased from outside companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The National Water Commission (Conagua) has reported that 37.5 percent of Mexico's aquifers are overexploited, with Mexicali's suffering most. This has led local farmers to stop producing on large sections of land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Activists, local farmers and many others are demanding answers as to why, with such a scarcity of water, the government is giving Constellation Brands millions of gallons of it to make beer for American consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The situation with Constellation Brands is born out of a circuit of corruption,\" says Salcido. \"All that corruption was seen reflected with the welcoming of a beer company from the United States that has demonstrated will be a straw that is going to consume millions of liters of water, knowing that water is needed by farmers and, more than anything, the city.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Standards and influence\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jorge Burgos, brewery director at Constellation Brands' Mexicali offices, assures there are no laws being broken or ethics being violated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A company like Constellation Brands is managed with international standards in terms of high ethics and values,\" he says. \"Constellation Brands has been in the U.S. for more than 70 years, and for a company to have that kind of permanence, it has to be managed with high national and international standards of ethics and values, and the care of the environment and natural resources. It's implicit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But activists point out the cozy relationship Constellation has with the government. The legal representative for Constellation Brands, Sergio Eduardo Montes Montoya, \u003ca href=\"https://www.eldiario.es/desalambre/multinacional-cervecera-quiere-desierto-mexicano_0_710779434.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">also works in the mayor's office as the director of Urban Administration\u003c/a>. Senator Victor Hermosillo Celada's company, Hermosillo and Associates, is \u003ca href=\"http://hermosillo.com/projects/constellation-brands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">leading the construction of the multibillion-dollar brewery\u003c/a> and speaks openly about his political and business dealings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Constellation Brands denies the suggestion of corruption. It issued a statement in response to NPR's questions:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No government officials or authorities in office have been hired by Constellation Brands. We continue to work with local authorities to ensure all aspects of our brewery construction project are in full compliance with all applicable rules, regulations and laws. This has been validated by Mexico's Ministry of the Interior,\" it says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Members of the Mexican government contacted about the same allegations have yet to respond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Constellation Brands already operates one of the largest breweries in the world out of the city of Nava in Coahuila, which opened in 2010. The company is in the process of expanding it. Constellation also operates a brewery in the city of Sonora in Obregon, which it also plans to expand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Burgos explains, the company chose Mexicali for its third Mexican brewery because of its proximity to the border and intended market. The city also offers a glass bottle plant, a cardboard plant and potential for an aluminum can plant, all of which represent 70 percent of Constellation Brands' supply costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burgos says the brewery will use water that is designated for agriculture but isn't being used by farmers, so it's not taking any extra from the city's water sources. \"The water isn't going to run out,\" he says. \"We come with the directive to take care of the natural resources.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A pattern of privatization\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Activist Galaz Duarte says the brewery's influence is part of a larger problem. He worries that a lack of transparency and public involvement may lead to the privatization of water that will benefit big corporations, including Constellation Brands, the government and politicians at the expense of the people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, Baja California governor Francisco \"Kiko\" Vega introduced a controversial \u003ca href=\"https://www.thebajapost.com/2017/01/04/social-rejection-against-baja-california-water-law-grows-stronger/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ley del Agua (Waters Law) Bill\u003c/a> that would allow private entities to access the state's treated water and build services around it. But it was recently rescinded after \u003ca href=\"https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/baja-governor-bows-to-huge-water-law-protest/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mass protests\u003c/a>. Projects like the Constellation Brands brewery raise questions about continued efforts to privatize water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Basically this government has based its business model around selling the public's water,\" says Galaz Duarte. \"In this model, anything can be bought. Everything has a price.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Alex Zaragoza is a freelance culture writer based in Los Angeles. She was raised on the U.S.-Mexico border.

The intense wind makes the tarps serving as walls flap loudly, like Batman's cape as he propels down a building. And just like Batman, they say they're there for justice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jesus Galaz Duarte, Mauricio Villa, Alberto Salcido, Francisco Javier Trujillo and Jorge Benitez all form part of Mexicali Resiste, an activist group fighting the opening of a new brewery by the Fortune 500 company Constellation Brands. Constellation makes wines, spirits and beer, including Corona, Modelo and Pacifico, as well as beers from craft brewer Ballast Point. The company has set up offices in the city, and is working with the local government to build a $1.5 billion brewery that will use local water to make beer for American consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brewery is \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbrands.com/news/articles/constellation-brands-to-build-new-10-million-hectoliter-brewery-in-mexicali-mexico-and-further-expand-its-nava-brewery-to-fuel-the-continued-industry-leading-growth-of-its-beer-business\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">slated to open in about five years\u003c/a>, and plans to invest another $500 million for infrastructure, land and water rights to double production over time. It will initially make 10 million hectoliters of beer (roughly 264 million gallons), according to the company press release. Constellation Brands says it will use 3.5 liters of water from local wells to produce one liter of beer, amounting to 1.8 billion gallons of water a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While not a drop of the beer would go to the Mexican market, Constellation Brands says the brewery will create 750 permanent jobs in Mexicali.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But members of Mexicali Resiste say the negative impacts far outweigh the possible benefits and are hoping to stop Goliath in his tracks. They've set up encampments, held marches and led protests that have in some cases erupted in violence. Videos showing members \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/ajplusespanol/videos/1770264503025891/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">throwing rocks and being bloodied by police batons \u003c/a>have gone viral. Members also claim to have been harassed and threatened, beaten and had their offices burglarized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

So what's going to happen? They're going to go to another place where there's more water to satisfy the same market and deplete their water. They're going to leave this region without the resources to live a dignified life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A strained water system\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Water is a precious commodity, especially in Mexicali and many neighboring cities where it isn't uncommon to wake up in the morning to find there's no running water. About four hours southeast of Los Angeles, Mexicali's temperatures are the highest in all of Mexico, reaching up to 125 degrees. Local agriculture heavily relies on municipal water sources and the Colorado River, as there's virtually no rainfall throughout the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 300,000 people in Baja California live without regular access to water, and nearly 6 percent of households lack running water. Tijuana and Mexicali are hit hardest, \u003ca href=\"https://www.gob.mx/cms/uploads/attachment/file/288978/Baja_California.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mexico's government reports.\u003c/a> However, the count includes only water for bathing, washing, gardening, etc. Mexico's tap water is unsafe to drink, so drinking water has to be purchased from outside companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The National Water Commission (Conagua) has reported that 37.5 percent of Mexico's aquifers are overexploited, with Mexicali's suffering most. This has led local farmers to stop producing on large sections of land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Activists, local farmers and many others are demanding answers as to why, with such a scarcity of water, the government is giving Constellation Brands millions of gallons of it to make beer for American consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The situation with Constellation Brands is born out of a circuit of corruption,\" says Salcido. \"All that corruption was seen reflected with the welcoming of a beer company from the United States that has demonstrated will be a straw that is going to consume millions of liters of water, knowing that water is needed by farmers and, more than anything, the city.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Standards and influence\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jorge Burgos, brewery director at Constellation Brands' Mexicali offices, assures there are no laws being broken or ethics being violated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A company like Constellation Brands is managed with international standards in terms of high ethics and values,\" he says. \"Constellation Brands has been in the U.S. for more than 70 years, and for a company to have that kind of permanence, it has to be managed with high national and international standards of ethics and values, and the care of the environment and natural resources. It's implicit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But activists point out the cozy relationship Constellation has with the government. The legal representative for Constellation Brands, Sergio Eduardo Montes Montoya, \u003ca href=\"https://www.eldiario.es/desalambre/multinacional-cervecera-quiere-desierto-mexicano_0_710779434.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">also works in the mayor's office as the director of Urban Administration\u003c/a>. Senator Victor Hermosillo Celada's company, Hermosillo and Associates, is \u003ca href=\"http://hermosillo.com/projects/constellation-brands/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">leading the construction of the multibillion-dollar brewery\u003c/a> and speaks openly about his political and business dealings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Constellation Brands denies the suggestion of corruption. It issued a statement in response to NPR's questions:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No government officials or authorities in office have been hired by Constellation Brands. We continue to work with local authorities to ensure all aspects of our brewery construction project are in full compliance with all applicable rules, regulations and laws. This has been validated by Mexico's Ministry of the Interior,\" it says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Members of the Mexican government contacted about the same allegations have yet to respond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Constellation Brands already operates one of the largest breweries in the world out of the city of Nava in Coahuila, which opened in 2010. The company is in the process of expanding it. Constellation also operates a brewery in the city of Sonora in Obregon, which it also plans to expand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Burgos explains, the company chose Mexicali for its third Mexican brewery because of its proximity to the border and intended market. The city also offers a glass bottle plant, a cardboard plant and potential for an aluminum can plant, all of which represent 70 percent of Constellation Brands' supply costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burgos says the brewery will use water that is designated for agriculture but isn't being used by farmers, so it's not taking any extra from the city's water sources. \"The water isn't going to run out,\" he says. \"We come with the directive to take care of the natural resources.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A pattern of privatization\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Activist Galaz Duarte says the brewery's influence is part of a larger problem. He worries that a lack of transparency and public involvement may lead to the privatization of water that will benefit big corporations, including Constellation Brands, the government and politicians at the expense of the people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, Baja California governor Francisco \"Kiko\" Vega introduced a controversial \u003ca href=\"https://www.thebajapost.com/2017/01/04/social-rejection-against-baja-california-water-law-grows-stronger/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ley del Agua (Waters Law) Bill\u003c/a> that would allow private entities to access the state's treated water and build services around it. But it was recently rescinded after \u003ca href=\"https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/baja-governor-bows-to-huge-water-law-protest/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mass protests\u003c/a>. Projects like the Constellation Brands brewery raise questions about continued efforts to privatize water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Basically this government has based its business model around selling the public's water,\" says Galaz Duarte. \"In this model, anything can be bought. Everything has a price.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Alex Zaragoza is a freelance culture writer based in Los Angeles. She was raised on the U.S.-Mexico border.
