Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of September 10, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Berkeley/Jefferson County Data Center Campus (QTS Kearneysville) in Kearneysville, Berkeley County, West Virginia 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

300-acre site split between Berkeley County (a 90-acre parcel for two data center buildings, an electrical switching station, a water tank, stormwater retention ponds, plus a narrow access parcel to Charles Town Road/Route 115) and an adjacent 191-acre Jefferson County parcel already zoned industrial for future expansion, which as of the source date the Jefferson County Planning office had not yet received formal plans for. Properties were sold July 2024 by F.O. Day Company to IB10 Martinsburg LLC; the Berkeley County Planning Commission approved the concept plan for the Berkeley parcels in March 2024. QTS Data Centers (Overland Park, KS; owned by funds managed by Blackstone) is the developer named in reporting. As of April 2025 QTS told reporters it was 'in the initial stages of planning.' No capacity, investment, or job figures have been publicly disclosed as of 2026-09-10. Coordinates are a Kearneysville-area approximation, not a confirmed parcel location.

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
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.
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.
