limit nuisances caused by data centers.

Summary

The bill would prevent any facility housing a data center from being built within a mile of a residential area and would limit its noise to 45 decibels at the nearest property line. It defines a data center broadly, covering cloud services, cryptocurrency mining and similar digital operations. Residents or the state attorney could bring a lawsuit to halt a center that breaks these rules.
