U.S.-Mexico Border Program

The Border 2025 Program is the latest environmental program implemented under the 1983 La Paz Agreement and serves as a model of cooperation between the United States and Mexico. The Program supports communities along the U.S.-Mexico border region by improving environmental and health conditions through its initiatives towards clean air, land, water and ensuring communities can effectively respond to emergencies. Active participation by key partners in state and local governments, U.S. federally recognized Tribes, and Mexican indigenous communities are essential to the lasting success of these efforts. EPA is committed to continuing this collaboration and serving communities in the border region.
