Nye County Commissioners Discuss Data Center Ban in Pahrump

Residents in Pahrump, Nevada, are strongly opposing a proposed 900-acre data center due to concerns about its massive water and electricity consumption, particularly during a 'mega drought'. Nye County Commissioners are discussing a potential data center ban and proposing a special election referendum for residents to decide on the project's future. The article highlights a separate lawsuit in California's Imperial Valley over data center water rights as a cautionary tale.
