ICYMI: NH Leaders Demand Immediate Action From Ayotte as Data Center Concerns Grow

Read excerpts from the press conference below.

State Representative Kris Schultz: “Just days after the Bow proposal came to light, Concord has seen a data center proposal of its own — a project being described as a “micro” data center. There’s nothing micro about the amount of water this project would use or the amount of electricity it would suck up…Governor Ayotte: stop waiting for the next town to sound the alarm. Issue the executive order, put an immediate moratorium in place, and give communities across New Hampshire a chance to establish responsible rules before another massive project lands in their backyard.”

Mariana Beer, candidate for State Representative in Pembroke: “…This will not just affect Bow; it will affect us here in Pembroke and the surrounding areas…If Governor Ayotte truly believes projects like this pose a threat to New Hampshire communities, she should act before another shovel hits the ground, not wait until 2027 to do something about it.”
