What the source record says
A ~$100 million expansion (dubbed 'Grey Wolf') consolidating IT operations for the FBI, U.S. Marshals Service, a U.S. Attorney's Office, the Bureau of Prisons, and the Treasury Department, as part of a nationwide DOJ consolidation from roughly 110 data centers down to three (Pocatello, ID; Clarksburg, WV; Sterling, VA) -- reported to have generated over $135 million in savings. 140,000 sq ft total: 100,000 sq ft of secure data-center space plus 40,000 sq ft of office space. Broke ground October 2017; ribbon-cutting held 2019-11-18, with 300 staff at opening and stated room to grow by roughly 250 more over two to five years. Coordinates corrected 2026-09-12 from a Pocatello city-centroid placeholder to the OpenStreetMap POI for the FBI facility on Duckett Byrnes Street (cited below); the pin is building-level, not parcel-surveyed, hence precision remains approximate. Neither press source fetched stated a street address or MW capacity. aiClassification omitted: this is general-purpose government IT/records infrastructure, not an AI-oriented facility.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.

Compute Atlas 1.34.1 with retained prior rows and publication holds. This is a DataCenterData composite, not an unmodified publisher edition. This row uses the captured source from 1.34.1, source as of 2026-10-14T20:40:52.293Z.
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.
