  1. I’d demand air cooled system over water cooled without question! If Citizens is to supply water, that water comes from not only White River and adjacent wells from the White River aquifer, but Morse, Geist, and Eagle Creek reservoirs, the very water that keeps us alive in central Indiana. We’ve experience the prolonged summer droughts that lowers those reservoirs without this new 4M gallons per day load.
    Humans can only live for about 3 days without water, not to mention the sanitary issues.
    Without new massive electric generation plants, the 4 gigawatts is just stealing power from other regions.

  2. The amount of resources that these data centers consume, all without a commensurate amount of new employment for local citizens, is galling. Between the LEAP District in Lebanon and now this, exactly where do we think we have a spare 7-10 million gallons of H2O a day?
