The Zapotillo region is associated with a controversial water infrastructure project in Mexico known as the Zapotillo Dam. Located in the state of Jalisco, it is intended to supply water to León (in Guanajuato), Los Altos de Jalisco, and the Guadalajara metropolitan area. The project has been controversial due to its potential environmental and social impacts. Critics argue that the dam could flood surrounding areas, particularly the town of Temacapulín, which has resisted relocation for years. Concerns also exist over water allocation fairness and whether the project will benefit local communities as much as promised.[ citation needed ]
