Lima residents voice concerns on proposed data center

Residents of Lima, Ohio voiced concerns at a public hearing held by the Ohio EPA regarding a draft air permit-to-install for a new data center. The permit would allow for the installation of 115 diesel-fuel generators, 4 emergency fire pumps and electrical generators, 36 cooling towers, and 116 fuel storage tanks. Residents expressed issues with the lack of transparency in the permit application, which they say is heavily redacted.
