In particular, it reviews the Watershed Management and Ordering Plans, administrative permits for water use and pollution, as well as water use and water pollution charges. It analyzes how they could interact and be implemented in order to undertake comprehensive and integrated water management by the regional environmental authorities. The paper then reviews how these instruments are currently being implemented by the regional environmental authorities, concluding that IWRM goals are not being achieved. Introduction There is no consensus on what the concept of Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) means. The Global Water Partnership (2005) considers IWRM as a means to achieve three strategic goals: (1) Efficiency to make water resources extend as far as possible; (2) Equity, in the allocation of water across different social and economic groups; and (3) Environmental sustainability, to protect the water resources base and associated eco-systems. Traditional approaches have typically overstated one of the above goals without considering the others. For example, the ecosystem approach is directed at managing water resources, focusing on the natural ecosystems conservation and restoration (Andrade Navarrete, 2004), but it has little regard for the allocation of water among users or the of its consumption. Engineering approaches have focused on the storage and distribution of water without considering ecosystems or land uses in the watershed. There is no simple solution for implementing the concept of IWRM; it depends on the particular framework and institutions related to the water resources in a country. One approach that has been promoted for the implementation of IWRM in Latin America is the creation of
