How a nine-month data center moratorium in SC impacts projects under construction
York County Council in South Carolina voted for a nine-month moratorium on new data centers to study their impact on resources and infrastructure. The moratorium's effect on the QTS Data Center project under construction, including nine buildings at Lake Wylie, remains unclear, as legal advisors determine if existing approvals or 'vested rights' exempt it. Community members and officials seek clarity ahead of council meetings on June 29 and July 13.
