  4. #Massachusetts #datacenters need approval before getting a permit following new executive order

    by Amal Elhelw, Tue, September 8, 2026

    "Gov. #MauraHealey is now putting Massachusetts among a growing number of states taking a closer look at how data centers are built and who gets a say in where they go.

    "For years, Massachusetts has promoted itself as a place for the technology industry to grow, including data centers powering the #AIBoom.

    "As those projects have gotten bigger, so have the concerns about their impact on #electricity costs, the #environment, and local communities.

    "Back in February, Gov. Healey said data centers need to power themselves, pay for it, 'and do it in a way that doesn't harm residents.'

    "More than six months later, Healey said she's putting local communities in control.

    "On Tuesday, she signed an executive order requiring local approval for new data center infrastructure.

    " 'Unless a community says yes to a data center, we're saying no,' Healey said.

    "The move comes after the Governor first paused new applications for the state's data center sales tax exemption in June, saying stronger protections were needed.

    "That tax break was created by a law Healey signed in 2024, giving qualified data centers a potential 20-year sales tax exemption.

    "On Tuesday, Healey addressed that, saying she signed that package but did not include the tax exemption herself.

    " 'As I've seen things, I just didn't think that it was right for that sales tax exemption to apply in the midst of what we're dealing with right now, which is a lot of concern across communities in Massachusetts and this country about the impact data centers are having or could have,' Gov. Healey said.

    "Tuesday's executive order also requires developers to prove that they're not going to harm the environments or communities where they want to build. They also have to provide their own clean energy on day one, and if they can't, they have to pay ratepayers for the energy they consume until their own supply is in place.

    "Republican candidate for Governor, Mike Minogue agrees that Massachusetts is in an energy crisis.

    " 'I would always let a local community have input, but in reality, today, we're seeing more override votes than ever before just for operations,' Minogue said. "What I want to do is give more money back to the towns and cities if they will reduce the stretch codes, which destroys the opportunities for many builders and developers.'

    "A proposed data center in #WestfieldMA has yet to seek permits from state agencies. Should the project come to the state, the developer would need to present a Community Benefits Agreement and its plans to meet the state's water and energy expectations.

    "The state currently has about 50 data centers, meaning Tuesday's announcement could help determine how many more Massachusetts is willing to take on."

  7. Sunrise

    I kicked off my Labor Day early this morning by driving out to the ocean and taking some sunrise pics. I went to Salisbury Beach on the Massachusetts side of the MA/NH state line and caught the actual sunrise. After that I drove over to Plum Island. I usually turn left when I cross the bridge onto the island and go to the lighthouse. This time I turned right and went to the Parker River Wildlife Refuge. There is a beach on the ocean there and hiking trails through the salt marshes just inland from the Atlantic. 

    There were a lot of people at Salisbury watching the sun. More than I’ve ever come across on one of these little trips. It was probably because the sun came up at 6:14am or so. The last time I did a sun rise visit I think the sun came up just after 5:00. Big difference. The only people on the Plum Island beach were a middle aged couple who were clearly on a date. I tried very hard not to draw attention to myself and thus distract them from what I’m sure was a lovely morning. The trails I walked on had a bunch of people too but they were all using binoculars while I was using cameras. They were bird watching. 

    I took some digital pics with my Z5, I took some 35mm with my N90, and I took some 120 with my Lubitell. I shipped the film out for developing today along with three rolls I shot in August. Will I get the scans back before we leave for California next weekend? Not likely, but I’ll chose optimism and say I hope so.

    For now… digital pics.

    We start with Salisbury Beach and the start of Labor Day 2026.

    And there we have it. My morning pics. The highlights of the digital pics at least. The full album is here on Flickr. When I get the scans back I’ll add them to the album. Hopefully I’ll have them by the end of the week so I don’t have to rely on a hotel’s wifi to upload them. Fingers crossed.
