Company statement reported by an outlet. Oracle stated, according to KANW, that construction uses non-potable water from an existing water-rights holder for activities such as dust control, with State Engineer oversight. It also described conservation efforts. These are outlet-reported company statements, not independent measurements or a response resolving every water concern.
KANW explicitly presents the Oracle spokesperson statement in its account of the same construction-water dispute. It addresses construction-water use, not every operational water or unrelated county-procedure issue. September 23 is the outlet publication; the original company statement day is unknown.
Response publication: September 23, 2026. Response sources checked: October 18, 2026.
