Provident Chesterton data center

Status: cancelled · Confidence: low

Facts

Signal notes

Proposed data center cancelled in June 2024 after community resistance over air quality, water, and property values — recorded as a cancelled (dead-proposal) record per the negatives-are-data doctrine. Support is thin: a single low-confidence source (Data Center Watch), hence aggregate confidence low. The project's apparent operator/backer "Provident" has no entry in operators.yml, so the operator field is omitted; "Provident" needs an operators.yml entry before it can be linked. No capacity, land, or announced/operational dates were sourced, so those fields are blank.
