Site Layer 1 LLC

In Silver City, rapid community response to local data center proposal

Residents of Grant County, New Mexico, are mobilizing a grassroots campaign against a proposed data center after learning about it through a public notice. The project, identified as Site Layer 1 LLC, would be powered by natural gas and is projected to emit significant greenhouse gases and particulate matter, raising environmental and health concerns. In response to community outcry, a Grant County Commissioner plans to propose a one-year moratorium on data center development.
