Proposed hyperscale data center may be near Indigenous burial sites, former tribal chairman believes

A former chairman of the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation has voiced concerns that a proposed hyperscale data center in Box Elder County, Utah, may be located near sacred Indigenous burial sites. Darren Parry, speaking on his own behalf, expressed worry that these potential sites could be disturbed or destroyed by the development. The proposed project's proximity to cultural heritage sites is raising environmental and opposition issues.
