Residents appeal Throop’s data center zoning, argue it benefits private interests

Residents in Throop, Pennsylvania, have appealed a newly adopted data center zoning ordinance, arguing it benefits private interests over the public and violates environmental rights. The group, known as "Protectors of Water, Wildlife, Environment and Resources" (POWER), filed appeals with both the Throop Zoning Hearing Board and the Lackawanna County Court of Common Pleas. They contend the ordinance, which allows data centers on 351 acres of conservation land, fails to protect the community's resources.

Meanwhile, Archbald and Dickson City are holding hearings on proposals from Essential Energy LLC and Dickson City Power, associated with Kriger Construction Inc., to build multiple power plants and data centers. Dickson City zoners have already rejected appeals for four data centers.
