according to its initials in Spanish) capable of territorially differentiating
grabbers, considering the use they give to water, the volumes they
accumulate, as well as water status in each basin and aquifer. Grabbing
pattern is established by identifying concessionaires and water uses when
the volumes granted concentrate at least 80% of the municipality surface
and/or groundwater. The IRAA integrates Water Stress Index to
determine risk and makes it possible to link water management and land
use management, since water grabbing activities are identified in each
municipality. The index was applied in the state of Puebla where, from
174 municipalities that met methodological requirements, 45.4% were at
Very High risk, 41.4% were at High risk, 10.9% were at Medium risk and 2.3% were at Low risk. None entered the Very Low risk category, showing
a strong tendency towards water grabbing risk in the state, which is
confirmed by the presence of inter-municipal grabbers, also identified in
this study. Through the IRAA it is possible to identify priority areas in the
transformation of water management that transcends basin organizations
and integrates municipal territories. In turn, it proposes arguments for
environmental justice. The methods and techniques used are in the field
of data science.
