Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of September 24, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Kyndryl Research Triangle Park Data Center in Durham, Durham County County, North Carolina 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
Kyndryl 'Design Level 3' facility in Research Triangle Park with FedRAMP, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II authorisations. Cooling is not recorded: the source describes three 1,300-ton water-cooled chillers but does not say whether heat is ultimately rejected evaporatively, and the coolingType tie-breaker cannot be applied without that. The source page labels the city 'Raleigh, Wake County'; the address is in Durham County.

Which document closes each gap

- Land area
- The rezoning application, the plat, or the deed recorded with the county.
