notes: >
  Capacity (180 MW) and building_sqft (750,000+ sq ft) are full-build-out
  figures; capacity basis unspecified so capacity_mw_basis omitted. Broke
  ground late 2022, tops-out reported; recorded as under-construction.
  Operator is Prime Data Centers, which has no operators.yml entry —
  operator field omitted; needs an operators.yml entry. id operator-component
  derived from the "Prime" name since no operator/developer id exists.
  Single reputable source, medium confidence.
