Search places, companies, projects, addresses, stable IDs, and public claims. DataCenterData records show their evidence status. Licensed and operator listings stay in separate discovery layers: each lead is a source listing to investigate, not necessarily one distinct data center.

What the evidence shows

Selected cases showing what public records establish, what companies report, and what remains unknown.

Quincy, Washington · Water · EPA case study

What do the water-reuse figures measure?

EPA estimates 138 million gallons/year of potable-water savings from a city-owned reuse system that began operating on 30 June 2021. That estimate is not total campus consumption or a current meter audit.

Record checked: 10 September 2026

Sources and limits

EPA documents the city-owned reuse utility and a 30-year agreement financed by Microsoft. The 138 million gallons/year figure estimates potable water avoided. Current campus withdrawals and meter readings are not established here.

New Albany, Ohio · Local finance · City of New Albany

Is “payroll equivalent” actual payroll?

The city reports about $10 million in 2024 community-development charges (collected 2025) and a $178 million payroll-equivalent comparison for one hyperscaler at a 2% income-tax rate—not wages paid or headcount.

Record checked: 12 September 2026

Sources and limits

The city's finance explainer reports these charges and the payroll comparison. It describes annual review of active tax abatements. Receipts and compliance findings for each operator still need to be reconciled.

Hammond, Indiana · Project status · City outcome notice

What happened to the proposed expansion?

After two extensions, Hammond says the proposed 450,000 ft² / 180 MW CoreWeave expansion agreement expired on 30 June 2026 because required milestones were not met. Existing DX-1 remains a separate operating facility.

Record checked: 11 September 2026

Sources and limits

The city's expiration notice and council minutes document the proposed expansion. It depended on a power agreement and lease. The exact unmet milestones, signed agreements and any payments or incentives remain unresolved here.
