Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of September 12, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over ColoSpace Bedford Data Center in Bedford, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire 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.
Notes on the record
OSM matches a building at this address named 'Commerce Park West' (way/265358816), used in preference to the nearby US Census interpolation (~400m offset on this business-park road). FirstLight Fiber's own directory (via Baxtel) also lists a 'FirstLight Bedford' facility at this SAME address, 8 Commerce Drive. Rather than ship a second record carrying an identical pin (this wave's one-pin-per-parcel rule), that is recorded here as a note instead: it is most likely the same building or business park -- possibly a shared carrier-neutral building housing both ColoSpace's product and a FirstLight point of presence -- and is not independently confirmed as a physically distinct site. colospace.com's own site could not be fetched in this run (expired TLS certificate), so this record rests on two independently fetched third-party directory listings (DataCenterCatalog, Baxtel) plus the address-to-building geocode match, hence 'reported' rather than 'confirmed' confidence.
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.
- Power capacity in megawatts
- Cooling method and water use
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- Permanent jobs promised
- Land area
- 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.
- 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.
- Land area
- The rezoning application, the plat, or the deed recorded with the county.
- 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.
