Step up for residents
 

It is time to step up for residents near planned and existing Data Centers.  The noise from the generators affect people’s enjoyment of life and more importantly can adversely affect their health.  Noise is stressful and has been shown to affect health. 

It is not always best to make things easier for corporations and utility providers.  The American people should count for more than the desires of these entities.

profits are a part of our market but should not be at the expense of the environment or American citizens.
