Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of September 12, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Iron Mountain Data Centers NJE-1 in Edison, Middlesex County, New Jersey 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

Operator states 100% renewable energy matching plus on-site solar via '18,000+ rooftop solar panels' (7.2 MW on-site solar generation capacity), described as the largest such installation of any North American data center, per Iron Mountain's own site.

Notes on the record

TIA-942-certified, 830,000 sq ft on a 43-acre campus, 30 MW with 2N redundancy, N+1 cooling/UPS, ISO 50001/14001 certified, PUE as low as 1.2. Acquired by Iron Mountain in January 2018 as part of a $1.34B acquisition of IO Data Centers' US portfolio (which also included sites in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Columbus, OH), per the operator's own site. Hosts 180+ customers including 20+ carriers and two IXPs. Coordinate provenance (resolved 2026-09-12): Iron Mountain's own location page embeds a Google Maps link containing TWO coordinate pairs from two different Place IDs. This record uses 40.5210834,-74.3473835, the pair the link anchors directly to the literal address string "3003 Woodbridge Ave, Edison, NJ 08837, USA", which sits ~29 m from the independently-mapped OpenStreetMap building tagged "IO Datacenter" at the same address. The other page-stated pair (40.5216986,-74.3461546) carries no address string and lands ~145 m away; a naive extraction returns it, since the page labels neither. Both page-stated pairs are ~1.8-1.9 km from the US Census geocoder's point for this address, which interpolates along the street centre line and is wrong here.

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 utility serves 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.
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.
