President Claudia Sheinbaum has activated the DN-III-E emergency plan and coordinated with federal agencies to address infrastructure damages.[^2]

Operational brigades from the Federal Electricity Commission, Infrastructure, Communications and Transport Secretariat, National Water Commission and Pemex are prepared to respond to potential harm to the electrical grid, road sections and water infrastructure.[^1]

The annual budget of the National Water Commission is equivalent to what Pemex spends in one week. The budget is a fraction of its 2017 levels.[^3]
