How the community has taken it

Reception is a sourced signal, not an editorial judgment: in litigation means the facility is or has been the subject of a lawsuit related to its siting, permitting, or operation.

Shut down 2026-03-28 under a 2023 Washington County lawsuit settlement over noise/zoning violations.

Notes on the record

Real, well-documented ex-GRIID site (25 MW per a 2020 BrightRidge/Red Dog LLC contract) that CleanSpark inherited in the Oct 2024 GRIID acquisition, but which PERMANENTLY CEASED OPERATIONS on 2026-03-28 under a 2023 Washington County lawsuit settlement over noise/zoning violations. The schema has no 'decommissioned' status; 'cancelled' is used as the closest fit for a shut-down facility. Illustrative of the community-opposition dimension of crypto mining. Cancelled status re-confirmed 2026-09-09: the closure deadline set by the 2023 settlement passed in March 2026 and no source reports the site reopening. capacityMw left unset - a 25 MW figure circulates in search summaries but could not be quoted from any page fetched in this run.

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.
