New York Officials Discuss Data Center Moratorium and Regulation at Fishkill Farms

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Pat Ryan discussed data center regulation at Fishkill Farms amid opposition to a proposed 1,000-megawatt project in East Fishkill. The town enacted a three-year moratorium, while the state’s one-year moratorium pauses new environmental permits and allows officials to study impacts on land, water, energy costs and the electric grid.
