Provider notes
Water. AWS representatives told the Kline Township planning commission the campus would cool on ambient air about 96% of the year and use water the remaining 4%. Stated permitted draw is 15,000 gallons per day domestic plus up to 100,000 gallons per day of non-contact cooling water, 115,000 gpd in total.
What the source record says
Nine two-story data center buildings plus an administration building, a water building and a security building, totalling about 2.1-2.2 million sq ft, off Lofty Road near Route 309 and Interstate 81, across from van Hoekelen Greenhouses. Buildings stated as 'probably less than 80 feet' tall; first building completion expected 2028. Lofty Road is to be realigned near Route 309 with a new traffic light at Amazon's cost. Stated wages for the ~500 permanent roles are $80,000-$100,000, with about 90% requiring an associate degree or certificate.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.

That does not mean the row is wrong, and it does not mean no reviewed record exists for the same place. A link is added only when an identifier or source establishes the match.
