Environmental Regulations and Standards in Mexico are based on the LGEEPA (Federal General Law of Ecological Equilibrium and the Protection of the Environment.)  The LGEEPA establishes the framework and authority for all environmental regulation in Mexico.

The LGEEPA is a very important document for understanding how the environmental regulatory system functions in Mexico. The LGEEPA is the context for understanding the relationship between the regulations that are based on it, and the NOMs that detail the specifications for compliance with Law and Regulations.

The Environmental Law is defined and responsibilities, and formats are established by the Regulations of LGEEPA and the NOM's.
