Residents of Elm Mott, Texas, voiced strong opposition to a proposed $10 billion AI data center during a recent meeting, citing concerns over the facility's projected daily water demand of 15 million gallons, which far exceeds the area's current supply. They fear that this could deplete local resources, lower water pressure, and potentially contaminate the water supply, while also impacting wildlife and public health. Opponents plan to further express their concerns at an upcoming city council meeting.
