Project Jupiter hearing officer recuses after groups allege bias
A hearing officer overseeing the air-quality permit for Project Jupiter, a data center development in Las Cruces, New Mexico, has recused himself following allegations of bias from environmental groups. This development comes after the New Mexico Supreme Court separately stayed the air-permit proceeding and a water drilling authorization, while also considering a legal challenge from another environmental group. Separately, litigation continues over $165 billion in industrial revenue bonds authorized by the Doña Ana County Commission for Project Jupiter.
