Regulators allege environmental violations at Google data center site
Original: State regulators allege environmental violations at Google data center site in Chesterfield
Virginia state regulators have accused Google of environmental violations at its data center site in Chesterfield. The allegations mark a new obstacle for the company's data center expansion in the region, where large-scale facilities have already drawn scrutiny over land, water and power use. Details of the specific violations and any penalties have not yet been made public.
Why now: Google's rapid data center expansion is under fresh regulatory scrutiny over its environmental impact.
