“The hearing represents a fundamental step for transparency and dialogue around one of the Province’s strategic sustainable mining projects. Citizens who wish to attend may travel to the venue, and those who prefer to participate from home will be able to do so via Zoom. In addition, the meeting will be broadcast live on YouTube,” clarified the Mining Environmental Authority.
Free transportation to guarantee access to the venue and connectivity
To facilitate access to the designated site for the hearing, the Government of Mendoza, the Municipality of Las Heras, and the Secretariat of Transportation have coordinated the provision of free transportation for those who wish to attend. This measure aims to ensure that no citizen is excluded due to transportation issues.
Connectivity will be guaranteed through the Starlink satellite service, which was already tested during the public hearing for the Don Ernesto project. At the same time, the entire hearing will be broadcast live and free of charge on the official YouTube channel of the Ministry of Energy and Environment, allowing the event to be followed from anywhere in the territory. This tool ensures unrestricted access to the content, deliberations, and presentations, regardless of location.
Shelter areas with heating, sanitary services, and security
