DO NOT GRANT EMISSION WAIVERS TO DATA CENTERS DURING CRITICAL ENERGY DEMAND
 

Our communities are being  beseiged by data centers operating next to homes and schools.

Allowing continuous use of generators during energy constraints will negativley affect the health of hundreds of thousands of residents in Virginia. This is the WRONG decision by the DEQ. Better to issue State wide restraints on new data center construction than to modify the current regulations.
