Data center proposals in Utah are controversial. What about in neighboring states?

Data center development is seeing varied responses across the Mountain West, with several localities in Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Michigan, and Oklahoma enacting moratoriums due to opposition. Conversely, Wyoming is actively encouraging development, with Governor Mark Gordon signing an executive order to create a framework for responsible growth. In Uinta County, Wyoming, a specific AI data center project from Prometheus Hypescale has been recommended for approval by the Planning Commission, despite local resident concerns, and awaits a final vote from county commissioners.
