Environmental Concerns
Several water offtakes have been progressively placed at lake Musters for drinking water supply, as well as many diversions of Senguerr river to feed oil extraction facilities in the nearby region. This complicated the already resented hydro balance of the whole system to the extend of almost collapse at Colhué Huapi whose peripheral surface continuously retracts and dries. The hydrological equilibrium of the whole basin has been negative in the past seventy years. Currently these lakes situation could be defined as compromised.

Famous quotes containing the word concerns:
“Universal empire is the prerogative of a writer. His concerns are with all mankind, and though he cannot command their obedience, he can assign them their duty. The Republic of Letters is more ancient than monarchy, and of far higher character in the world than the vassal court of Britain.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
