Trying to understand water use projected for Global AI data center.

I have seen multiple reports of 100,000

gallons for the closed loop system.

KUNC reports Weld Planning Director David Eisenbraun said “their intent is to use some 100 odd thousand gallons”. Over what time period and at what operating level?

It seems like this could be a daily amount if they get bigger and run an evaporate assist cooling system.

It’s hard to know for sure as there seem to be two playbooks out there.

To the County Commissioners: They are using the 35 MW / Closed-Loop application to bypass heavy environmental restrictions, claiming they will only use a "household's worth of water."

To Investors & Clients: They are selling a 200 MW to 1 GW powerhouse that uses that much water per day. 36.5million gallons annually. Sheesh that’s a lot.

Another Front Range pause…

Trying all the angles.

Will try box office tomorrow and lot too.

Welcome any ideas or thoughts.

Thanks people, for all the good vibes.

Can trade some cool stuff too maybe, baked goods, Greek olive oil etc…

I don't care about mayor Pro Tem confusion or whatever, I care about the mayor selling off our water without our say so. We don't really have any extra to spare these days.

1. What is in the pre-annexation agreement?

Worry that all the terms of the development are being negotiated secretly, without residents voices being heard.

2. “Captive” regulator?

Once a city annexes a project to gain the tax revenue, they become financially invested in the project's success. It becomes significantly harder for a city to enforce strict regulations against a project that is now their primary source of new revenue

3. Water use?

Water is the primary leverage point. If Windsor needs to use its municipal water rights to sweeten the deal for the developer, they are prioritizing the data center’s consumption over the existing constraints on residential water usage.

We need an independent regulator. We need transparency. We need a community benefit agreement.

Good update from the Sun, but we need more press on what’s happening in Weld…

Trying to learn more, checking with the county, does anybody here have any information?
