Pahrump Valley data center ban (Nye County Bill No. 2026-11) moratorium Adopted 18 August 2026; developer petition for judicial review filed September 2026 (reported 24 and 25 September 2026) |
n.a. | Nye County | County commissioners voted 5-0 on 18 August 2026 to adopt Bill No. 2026-11, amending Nye County Code Title 17 to prohibit data center development in the Pahrump Valley and Hydrographic Basin 162, an over-appropriated basin.

Townsite Data Center court halt BLM right-of-way amendment approved 26 June 2026; IBLA stay issued 1 September 2026; BLM motion to set aside and remand filed 21 September 2026; Boulder City response due 5 October 2026 |
Townsite Solar 2 LLC | Boulder City area, Clark County | The Interior Board of Land Appeals stayed construction of the Townsite Data Center on 1 September 2026, an 88.5-acre facility the Bureau of Land Management approved on public land roughly 25 miles southeast of Las Vegas near Boulder City, and reported as the first AI data center approved on federal public land. The board found BLM likely acted unlawfully when it amended an existing right-of-way grant in June 2026 to permit a data center without a project-specific environmental review. Opponents cited projected electricity and water demand, soil disruption, light pollution and habitat loss for the Mojave desert tortoise. BLM had until 21 September 2026 to respond. This is an interim stay, not a final decision, and no capital figure has been disclosed. In a filing on Monday 21 September 2026, BLM asked Interior Board of Land Appeals Administrative Judge David Gunter, who granted the stay, to set aside its approval of the right-of-way amendment so the agency can conduct additional review of the application. Townsite Solar 2 LLC supports the motion, the Center for Biological Diversity and the Sierra Club are neutral, and Boulder City opposes it, with its response due 5 October 2026; the city said the motion does not commit BLM to an environmental assessment or public involvement and its approval would lift the stay. |

Every state, one page each
Figures beside each state are named sites and blocked, delayed or restricted projects.
Seven references, one system
Capital, delay, policy, water, grid, permits and scarcity are one system seen from seven sides. Each reference is primary-sourced, refreshed on a schedule, and links into the others, so a project can be followed from the money committed to the docket that stopped it.
