Amazon Wallula Data Center Faces Review

Amazon Web Services is proposing a three-building, approximately 660,000-square-foot data center complex on 134 acres in the Port of Walla Walla's business park near Burbank, Washington.

Residents and an organized opposition group are seeking a one-year pause and more complete environmental review, while Walla Walla County awaits a traffic analysis before advancing the incomplete review. The dispute centers on water use, generator emissions, traffic, electrical infrastructure, and the limited public information available about the project's full resource requirements.
