Notes on the record

Redevelopment of the former Remington Arms firearms plant, which ceased production in 2024. WKTV: "Turin Hoefler Avenue LLC submitted a revised application" to the NYSDEC "Brownfield Cleanup Program" in January 2026 for "Site C," a "7.837-acre parcel," with a "250,000-square-foot AI data center" as the intended post-remediation use, at "14 Hoefler Ave., Ilion, NY"; the site has "widespread contamination in the soil, especially with heavy metals like arsenic, lead, and copper at levels above state cleanup standards for commercial use" and "15 vacant industrial buildings dating to the early 1900s," and the developer describes it as a "fossil-fuel-free, 100% electric site." The planned capacity of 200 MW comes from the Rockefeller Institute of Government's tracker entry for the project ("200 MW"), not from WKTV, which states no MW figure. County discrepancy: WKTV's article says Oneida County; the Rockefeller Institute says "Village of Ilion, Herkimer County." Ilion is in Herkimer County, so Herkimer is recorded and the WKTV attribution is treated as an error. The 7.837-acre figure is the Brownfield Site C parcel only; trade press describes a larger ~32-acre overall plant site and two 250,000 sq ft buildings, neither of which had been verified against a cited source as of September 2026, so neither is recorded. No permanent-jobs figure is recorded: the source says only that the project "aims to exceed the 274 positions lost when Remington closed," which is an aspiration, not a count. As of 2026-09-09, neither cited source states an investment figure, water/cooling detail, utility, or IDA or PILOT agreement. Because the site is fossil-fuel-free and 100% electric per the developer, no on-site generation is recorded.

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
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.
Which utility serves it: The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.
