Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of August 8, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over AWS New Albany (Beech/Miller Road Campus) in New Albany, Licking County, Ohio 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.

Notes on the record
AWS's Licking-side New Albany expansion: a $3.5B, five-building, ~1.25M sq ft campus (announced Sept 2023, targeted through 2030) on the Amazon Data Services Beech Rd NW / Miller Rd NW parcel cluster (~458 ac). Two buildings were completed and staffed as of Aug 2025; the remainder are under construction. Adjacent to (but distinct from) AWS's pre-existing 2570 Beech Rd "Ridge Two" campus (operational since ~2017, a separate parcel not in this record). No site-specific IT-load MW is disclosed (a widely-repeated 500 MW figure is an AWS us-east-2 regional aggregate, not this campus). Amazon's 2023 Ohio Job Creation Tax Credit is a multi-site umbrella (17 facilities across Franklin/Licking/Union counties), not specific to this parcel. Distinct from tracked aws-cosgray-hilliard-oh and aws-scioto-darby-hilliard-oh (Hilliard, Franklin County, west of Columbus). Status refresh 2026-08-08: the completion target has PASSED without confirmation. As of the city's 2025-08-07 update, two campus buildings were finished and staffed (tracked separately as the 2550 and 3180 Beech Road records) with the remainder "expected to be operational by the end of the year", i.e. end-2025. No fetched source confirms that happened, so this record stays under_construction rather than being promoted on an expectation. Worth re-checking with a Licking County occupancy or AWS regional announcement.

- Power capacity in megawatts
- Cooling method and water use
- Permanent jobs promised
- How the community has received it
- Which utility serves it
Which document closes each gap
- Power capacity in megawatts
- The utility's large load service agreement, the interconnection request in the grid operator's queue, or the electrical site plan in the permit file.
- Cooling method and water use
- The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
- Permanent jobs promised
- The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
- How the community has received it
- Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
- Which utility serves it
- The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.

Distances are between recorded coordinates, many of which are a city or county centroid, so treat them as approximate. Cumulative load on one utility and one aquifer is the question a planning commission rarely asks.
