Nothing on record as of September 2, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Aligned Salt Lake City Campus (SLC-01/02/03) in West Jordan, Salt Lake County, Utah appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.

Power and water
Data Center Frontier reports SLC-02 as 'The 240,000 square foot facility offers 48 megawatts of capacity, and can be expanded to 60 MW' and describes regional power available at 5.8 cents per kilowatt hour with free-air cooling viable 75-80 percent of the year. No campus-wide MW total was found on a source that was actually read, so capacityMw is omitted rather than assembled from third-party aggregator figures.

Notes on the record
West Jordan Redevelopment Agency participation agreements identified for the Pepper River site (former Fairchild Semiconductor plant, 3333 W 9000 South): a ~2018 agreement rebating Aligned Energy's municipal energy tax, capped at $5,000,000 over 10 years, and a 2018/2019 agreement rebating PayPal (the building's anchor tenant) 60% of the personal-property tax increment on its data-center servers, capped at $6,820,303 over 10 years, with no increment requested on real property. The primary RDA participation-agreement text and the FY2024 RDA budget PDF could not be extracted in this pass (pdftotext/WebFetch failures on both government PDFs); these terms are as reported by three contemporaneous news outlets (Deseret News, KUTV, KSL), not read directly from the agreement itself.
