      <title>News report: Grant County</title>
      <link>https://datacentersatlas.com/concerns/#concern:wa-grant-quincy-area-reported-concerns-2026</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The Spokesman-Review reported residents&amp;#x27; concerns about backup-generator emissions, water and land affected by transmission expansion associated with Quincy-area data-center growth. The article also describes claimed community benefits and company operating practices. This is area-level reporting, not an independently inspected violation, court disposition, measured exposure or an allegation assigned to every facility.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Record status: unknown. The later disposition of these area-level concerns is unknown in this bounded original-report review. Reported historic litigation, one changing air-monitor reading, company practices and agency process descriptions are not independently inspected current violations, procedural outcomes or evidence resolving all concerns.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Event date: Not established&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Source publication date: &lt;time datetime="2026-07-26"&gt;July 26, 2026&lt;/time&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Disposition date: Not established&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Concern sources checked: &lt;time datetime="2026-10-18"&gt;October 18, 2026&lt;/time&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The article combines several interviews and prior events without one independently verified exact filing or hearing day. The event date remains unknown; article publication is not substituted. The original article displays July 26, 2026 publication and July 27 update/editorial clarification. Publication is retained separately from all event and source-check dates.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Raised or recorded by The Spokesman-Review.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Company statement reported by an outlet&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p&gt;H5 Data Centers stated, according to The Spokesman-Review, that its Quincy facilities use outdoor air when conditions allow and generally run backup generators for testing or outages, coordinating testing locally. These are outlet-reported company practices, not independent measurements or a response for other operators.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The original report attributes these comments to H5 representatives discussing its Quincy facilities. They are linked as that bounded area-level company perspective, not an express answer to every resident concern, an exact-building statement or a county-wide operating role. July 26 is the outlet publication, not an independently verified company-original statement date.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Response publication date: &lt;time datetime="2026-07-26"&gt;July 26, 2026&lt;/time&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Response sources checked: &lt;time datetime="2026-10-18"&gt;October 18, 2026&lt;/time&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2026/jul/26/where-agriculture-meets-technology-inside-the-smal/"&gt;The Spokesman-Review&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Counts describe attributed documentation, not harm or severity. Allegations, procedural outcomes and published replies retain their separate scope.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
