There you go, Utah. The fix was baked into the process long before the details of the project became known. They are too corrupt to care.

New filing stirs #GreatSaltLake fears as giant #Utah #DataCenter comes into view, eyes water needs
by Jennifer Green
Thu, May 21, 2026"A new #WaterRights filing tied to a proposed #MegaDatacenter in northern Utah is renewing fears about the future of the Great Salt Lake, just as new renderings offer the clearest look yet at what the massive development could become.
"What's happening?
"A proposal connected to the #BoxElderCounty data center project seeks to transfer 11 acre-feet of water from an unnamed spring in #HanselValley, KSL reported.
"That marks a steep drop from a previous 1,900-acre-foot application that was withdrawn May 7 after prompting around 3,800 protests.
[...]
"The proposal is facing intense scrutiny because the Great Salt Lake is already under strain from long-term water shortages, and data centers can consume huge amounts of both electricity and water.
"Critics worry that even relatively small individual filings could add up over time if the development expands toward its full vision, which includes 7.5 to 9 gigawatts of power-producing capacity."

Yep. They cannot stand that diluting rural votes by cracking #SaltLakeCity into all four US House districts frustrated rural GOP voters enough to vote for an independent redistricting commission.This is just their latest action in the war to wrestling power back from the people.
This plus the recent #BoxElderCounty #AI humongous data center.
Eventually #Utahns are going to clue in and stop voting GOP.
