Hello Neighbors,
For your informaiton
🚨 The DEQ (Dept. of Environmental Quality) is considering a permit to allow for the construction of a large scale data centers campus in an environmentally sensitive wetland (shown in graphic below in the yellow box).
🚨This data campus will be DIRECTLY nextdoor to Piney Branch Elementary School and residential communities along Linton Hall Road.
“The proposed activity would affect 4.11 acre(s) of wetlands, and 3,770 linear feet of stream channel. The proposed activity would affect unnamed tributaries of Broad Run in the Rocky Branch-Broad Run watershed.”
✅ We are asking all concerned residents to email DEQ:
1. requesting a public hearing for this permit as the surrounding community has not been adequately informed of the permit, and
2. expressing opposition to the permit as it would allow heavy industrial development to impact an environmentally sensitive wetland in our community, and
3. why this is relevant to you (ie, you live in the Broad Run Watershed; your children attend the adjacent school; you live in close proximity to this development, etc).
⚠️ EMAILS ARE DUE BY TOMORROW 10/8. Please direct all emails to [email protected]
Link to more information is in the comments.
Note: this data center campus was approved by the Prince William BOCS in 2021. The developer (Chuck Kuhn with JK Real Estate) is now seeking additional permits needed to build out the site.
