Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of August 26, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Cipher Digital Ulysses in Morgan 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.
If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.
Power and water
Secured power capacity from AEP Ohio with direct PJM interconnection; all required utility agreements reported in place.
Notes on the record
Site publicly confirmed by Cipher (200MW, 195 acres, AEP Ohio, PJM, Q4 2027 energization) without a stated county; local reporting on a June 2026 public meeting in Center Township, Morgan County ties Cipher Digital to a proposed data center there, matching the same MW/timeline facts. Distinct from a separate Cipher-linked land assembly in Waterford Township, Washington County (see cipher-digital-hashworks-waterford-washington-oh).
What the record does not establish, and the document that would
In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.
- Cooling method and water use
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- Permanent jobs promised
- How the community has received it
Which document closes each gap
- Cooling method and water use
- The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
- 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.
Have one of these documents? Send it to us and we will add it to the record with attribution.

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.
