A Lehigh Valley township fights to preserve its farms, rural way of life from data center boom

Residents of Lower Mount Bethel Township are actively opposing a proposed hyperscale data center campus near the Martins Creek Power Plant, citing concerns about farmland preservation, rural lifestyle, and environmental impacts on the Delaware River. The original proposal was withdrawn due to community feedback, and a revised plan is expected soon, focusing on a reduced footprint and incorporation of community priorities.
