Permit and comment Air and generators
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation issued a Title V renewal denial for Greenidge Station, citing greenhouse-gas limits under state climate law. The later November 2025 disposition describes withdrawal of that denial under a signed settlement and remands the application for final processing. This historical permitting record does not establish a current violation, closure or a subsequently issued final permit.
Record status: Withdrawn. New York State Department of Environmental Conservation recorded withdrawal of the historical denial and administrative hearing request in the November 18, 2025 disposition, confirmed November 19. It does not establish completion of later public/EPA review, actual final permit issuance, achieved emissions reductions, all-party agreement or present compliance. The order records that the public-group petitioners did not concur.

Disposition date November 18, 2025
Concern sources checked October 18, 2026 June 30, 2022 is the original denial letter date. The separate November 18, 2025 ALJ disposition is the date used for withdrawal, confirmed by the regional decision dated November 19. The source documents have dated actions and signatures, but exact first public posting days are not established. They stay separate from this source check date.

Company statement published by an agency or court. Greenidge Generation LLC signed a settlement agreeing to seek modified permit conditions, emissions limits and reporting through the agency's public process. The agency-published agreement contains no admission of fact or liability. Signing is not proof that later conditions were completed or a final permit issued.
The signed November 7, 2025 stipulation directly addresses this same denial and hearing dispute. It is a company-executed document published by the agency, not an independently accessible company press release; its exact first public posting date is unknown.
Response publication: Not established. Response sources checked: October 18, 2026.

Public concern on the record Land use and zoning · Other
Town of Massena Planning Board discussed the intended ultimate use of the ZeroC and Petawatt site while reviewing its proposed substation on February 20, 2025. The minutes record questions about use classification and potentially wasteful cryptocurrency activity, alongside the proponent account of intended computing use and willingness to make a conditional commitment concerning cryptocurrency. The Board approved the substation site plan. These are attributed planning questions and proponent accounts, without a verified executed use restriction, measured harm or proof that concerns were resolved.
Record status: Unknown. The original minutes record questions about the ultimate use and a separate substation approval. That limited infrastructure approval does not independently resolve the planning concerns, establish a binding prohibition of cryptocurrency, or verify current computing stage.
