A lawsuit challenges Hermantown’s environmental review of a 200-acre data center, citing withheld details and inadequate impact assessments.
A lawsuit has been filed against Hermantown, Minnesota, over the environmental review of a proposed 200-acre data center, with the Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy and local residents alleging the city failed to disclose the project's true nature, used inadequate impact assessments, and withheld key details despite knowing about the proposal since September 2024.
Critics say the review ignored major concerns like water use, energy demands, and emissions, and relied on outdated industrial estimates.
A petition from over 100 residents prompted a delay in permitting, with public review expected in November.
This marks the fifth similar legal challenge in Minnesota in recent months, highlighting growing public pushback against data center projects due to transparency and environmental concerns.
