Prime Data Centers is seeking approval for a large data center campus at Starpointe Business Park in Hanover Township, Pennsylvania, supported by a proposed 450-megawatt natural gas plant.

Residents and their attorneys are challenging the permit process, application completeness, and township authority while raising concerns about emissions, noise, vibration, light, and disclosure. The hearing was continued to August 31, leaving the project's timeline and approval prospects uncertain.
