Moses Lake’s KEEL Data Center Water Demand Could Reach 1.1 Million Gallons Annually
Moses Lake city officials are implementing water conservation measures to manage increasing demand and protect the existing water supply. The KEEL Data Center's water demand could reach 1.1 million gallons annually, contributing to the city's overall water management challenges.
Moses Lake, Washington, is confronting growing water demand, prompting city officials to bolster water conservation efforts. The city has required water conservation measures since 2018, expanding the program to year-round requirements in 2023. These restrictions prohibit residents from irrigating during certain hours and days, with specific watering days designated for odd and even addresses.
The municipal efforts are aimed at reducing strain on the water system, particularly as well levels decline. A significant factor in this increased demand is the KEEL Data Center, which is projected to consume up to 1.1 million gallons of water annually, as reported by Source ONE News.
