Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of October 22, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Poolside Project Horizon AI Campus in Pecos County, Texas 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

Designed in eight 250-MW phases powered primarily by on-site aeroderivative gas turbines fueled by Permian Basin natural gas; site adjacent to a major gas-processing hub.

Notes on the record

2 GW AI training campus on a 568-acre parcel of the Mitchell family's Longfellow Ranch in Pecos County, near Fort Stockton. Coordinate anchored on Fort Stockton (nearest named town in coverage); exact parcel not publicly disclosed. CoreWeave was original anchor tenant (15-year, 250 MW lease, 40,000 Nvidia GB300 GPUs) but terminated the lease by early April 2026 after Poolside's Series C funding round failed to close; site reported idle as of mid-2026. CoreWeave (the announced anchor tenant) mutually terminated its agreement for Project Horizon after Poolside failed to stand up its first GPU cluster on schedule, and Poolside's associated ~$2B Nvidia-led funding round also fell through. As of late July 2026 Poolside was seeking a replacement partner (reportedly including Google) for up to 400MW, with no anchor tenant signed as of that reporting. As of October 2026, the status remains proposed and the planned capacity is the 2 GW announced in October 2025, not a figure from the replacement-partner talks; the originally announced 2GW/CoreWeave deal no longer stands as described.

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.

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.
