The Santa Cruz County Advisory Panel on the South32 Hermosa Project works to ensure that the local community voices are being represented as part of project development nearly six miles southeast of Patagonia. From local workforce development and economic benefits to environmental sustainability and health and safety, we aim to work together to make certain that community questions are being heard and addressed.   

The Hermosa Project brings with it a number of varied interests and opportunities to the community, and it is our goal to help align the desires of our neighbors with the decisions being made regarding the future of the project.
