DEQ: PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW BACKUP GENERATORS AT VA DATA CENTERS
 

Strongly oppose allowing backup diesel generators at data centers. Do not make VA residents bear the environmental , health, and other costs of these; those who profit should incorporate the costs of remediation the problems they cause into their financial calculations.
