Overview

• The government formally installed the Agencia de Gestión Integral de Residuos (AGIR), chaired by Jefa de Gobierno Clara Brugada with environment chief Julia Álvarez Icaza as technical secretary.
• The program adopts three categories—organic, recyclable inorganics, and non‑recyclable inorganics—with a fixed weekly pickup calendar to avoid on‑route mixing.
• Collection is scheduled as organics on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays; recyclable inorganics on Mondays and Wednesdays; and non‑recyclables on Fridays and Sundays.
• The city will co‑invest 250 million pesos in collection vehicles, matching alcaldías’ purchases; 34 units have been bought by boroughs and the city will add 34 more this year.
• Officials target transforming 50% of waste through new or upgraded plants, including modernization at Bordo Poniente, alongside a mass communications and education push, while sanctions for noncompliance were not specified.
