While data centers boom in Texas, their plans stay shrouded in secrecy
· KRGV (NBC 5)
Residents in Texas are increasingly frustrated by the lack of transparency surrounding proposed data center projects in their communities. Individuals like Mason McCallister have taken it upon themselves to investigate these developments, often finding little information from local officials. Many counties, including Grayson, have called for more disclosure from data center companies, which are often shielded by non-disclosure agreements and shell companies. Governor Greg Abbott has urged for stricter regulations, including halting approvals for new data centers until they provide detailed information on water and power usage. With over 248 data center projects planned, the push for transparency continues to grow.
