The US EPA proposed a rule allowing states to limit public input on air permits for data centers and other minor pollution sources, sparking strong opposition from nearly 200 environmental and state groups concerned about reduced transparency.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Deep Tech: Telecom & Connectivity.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face tighter state control but less public scrutiny for data center expansion permits. Engage local agencies now to influence permit terms before new rules limit your input channels.
