Investivoq AI Summary
Lawmakers ask for permit pause: Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman and State Sen. Andrew Zwicker said they sent a letter to New Jersey DEP Commissioner Ed Potosnak asking for a pause on permitting for the Sentinel Data Center project in South Brunswick. They said the application should not be approved “in its current form.”
Concerns cited in letter: The lawmakers said the project may have gaps in its environmental review and could affect nearby communities’ health and environment. They asked DEP to recalculate the facility’s emissions, disclose health-risk assessment details, add limits on non-emergency use, and allow more public review and comment.
Related proposals mentioned: The release said Watson Coleman has introduced federal legislation to study data center impacts, while Zwicker is sponsoring a state bill that would require a study of data center development in New Jersey and temporarily block new data centers until that study is complete.
