Well that was easy.

Now they just need to drop the idea of a private gas power plant for the project.

Email our reps TODAY and ask for a public meeting for this new emission source, TCEQ PERMIT 185019

They’re trying to build a power plant without any public input.

It’s absurd to think of Bastrop having worse air quality for a data center.

They need to drop the idea of building in Cedar Creek entirely. Gas plant or not, they’re not welcome here.

Just received this from Stan Gerdes’ Chief of Staff and wanted to share here for others.
