[1] The government of Panama under Martín Torrijos Espino approved numerous hydroelectric projects on the Río Viejo Chiriquí.
Up to 90% of the water in the watershed can be used for electrical generation, which can be used domestically or sold to other countries.
[2] According to an environmental impact study performed for the Pando and Monte Lirio hydroelectric projects there might have been some environmental impacts: changes habitat due to less erosion, changes in hydrology and disruption of the river, potentially more water use due to increased ecotourism and rafting activities.
