Seek public accounting of Project Jupiter’s water use

Stansbury is requesting that New Mexico state agencies disclose Project Jupiter’s estimated and reported daily and annual water use during construction and future operations. She wants the accounting to cover intended uses such as cooling and power generation, as well as consumptive use and return flows, so the public can understand how the data center’s water needs will be met.

Context: This is a request for information about one data center project, not a general water-use rule.

In their own words

Every new major water use deserves a transparent accounting of where its water is coming from
