Alabama's Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) has approved a permit for APLD BHM-01 LLC, a company connected to Applied Digital, to build a 2-million-square-foot hyperscale data center in Brookwood, Alabama. The permit addresses stormwater discharge during construction, with work potentially beginning soon and completing by late 2028. However, Applied Digital states that a final decision to proceed with the project at this location has not yet been made, and local city council and planning commission votes are still pending.
