In plain language

The bill restricts financial incentives for data centers and requires environmental reviews for large projects.

This legislation prohibits economic development assistance to data centers and sets job maintenance conditions. It also mandates environmental reviews for projects consuming significant power and near certain territories.

What this means for you
  • Families: Families may see increased scrutiny on projects that could affect their communities and local environments.
  • Environment: This means more environmental oversight for large projects that may impact local ecosystems.
  • Small Business: This may limit economic development opportunities provided to data center projects that could benefit local economies.

Summary

Prohibits allocation of economic development power to data centers; provides for certain caps on amounts and eligibility for industrial development agency financial assistance; provides for the return of industrial development agency-awarded financial assistance if certain job levels are not maintained within 5 years of project completion; designates the department of environmental conservation as the mandatory lead agency for environmental quality review of any action consuming over 20 megawatts; requires environmental quality review for any action within 10 miles of a federally recognized Indian nation's territory.
