@njdotcom: 👀 New Jersey’s largest planned AI data center, DataOne, has stirred controversy since day one, but it wasn’t until the state fined the company more than $1 million last month over its fleet of unpermitted gas-powered generators that DataOne became international news. A new short documentary from @Floodlight shows how a thermal drone investigation in August first brought these generators to light, and how the Vineland community reacted to learning what was spewing into their air. “What am I breathing in? What am I being exposed to?” said Tiffany Leone-Vespa, who lives about a mile from the generator fleet. “It's terrifying for me.” Following New Jersey’s record fine against DataOne, Floodlight obtained public records showing the unpermitted generator fleet was capable of emitting staggering amounts of air pollution and had been operating for nearly a year before state regulators intervened. #datacenter #dronetiktok #datacenters @Floodlight

Looks like some inspectors dropped the ball ? 💵 ? But seriously a small government , that they have there probably doesn’t have the infrastructure to send multiple inspectors out to see what’s going on specially in a huge project like this.

The town government allowed it, the town government has been doing their code enforcement inspection inspections, somebody’s pockets were lined, the company is so big. They’ll pay the fines and keep using the generators like the fines are just pocket change…….

I was thinking of moving to Vineland, not anymore. The local politicians sold out the whole town and their property values.

Good on him for keeping us informed and what these damn companies are doing, just because they think they can. I hope they make them pay that and more.
