New Mexico Environment Department to hold hearing for Project Jupiter data center air quality permit

The New Mexico Environment Department is set to review the air quality permit for Project Jupiter, a contentious data center joint venture by Oracle and OpenAI in Doña Ana County. Public interest is high, and there's significant backlash over unauthorized use of residents' and lawmakers' names in supportive comments. This hearing is crucial as it determines the environmental impact of the project, with implications for local air quality and broader data center regulations.
