Indianapolis councilors warn LEAP water deal threatens Eagle Creek
Twenty-one Indianapolis City-County councilors are warning against a deal that would send up to 25 million gallons of water daily from Indianapolis's Eagle Creek Reservoir to the LEAP industrial park in Boone County, which houses a Meta data center. They cite serious environmental risks to Eagle Creek and its wildlife, as treated industrial wastewater from the LEAP site is planned to be discharged back into the reservoir. Residents and state lawmakers also oppose the plan.
