• JoAnn Lykes

  My mom lives off of 571. You will be ruining her peace and right to live the remainder of her life quietly and free of worries as to what this data center will be doing to her quality of life. The construction will create duress, as well the extra energy costs that these centers generate and put on the back of the taxpayers.

• Karin Dubowick

  No more data centers in NJ! We must protect the Pinelands National Reserve, one of our state’s natural assets, our limited water resources, our electrical grid, which is already weak, our quality of life by reducing, not increasing noise, light and air pollution and prevent our electricity costs from skyrocketing out of control.

• Lynn Hundertpfund

  The Pinelands are a precious resource. Housing encroachment and data centers must be stopped! Data centers will also be used as a Big Brother tool to invade our privacy! There needs to be a moratorium on retirement communities as well. They are cash cows for developers and if we turn our backs they will further destroy our quality of life. People are terrified about Muslims taking over our towns and promoting Shiria Law. We need to be more vigilant about Brooklyn natives who don’t speak to non cult members and have expanded their grasp throughout Lakewood, Brick, and Tom’s River, so far! Our infrastructure was never intended to support this expanded population. The very qualities of Middle Jersey that brought us here are being destroyed as our quality of life is being trampled. Traffic, noise, encroachment into the Pine Barrens, more shopping centers, more forest fires, too many people!

• Michele szabo

  A large-scale data center should only be considered after a review that has shown proven maximum benefits for the community as a whole before approval when the project is planned. This should be done with transparency, engaging the community, relieving the burden to the community by investing in shared infrastructure and mitigating the impact on our local environment.

  I am concerned about this issue for everyone in NJ, the most densely populated state in the U.S., but I am particularly concerned as there is a developer trying to put a 65megwatt data center in Nutley where I live. Nutley is only 3 square miles. The property for this data center directly abuts residential property and a park, and is very close to an elementary school. We need to find a way to stop it!

  Data centers are harmful yo people and the environment. I am a Navy vet living in a retirement community that may suffer because of a proposed data center, literally yards away from our community. Help us, not the billionaires!!

• Christina Bilinski

  Data centers benefit the billionaires and the developers. Life was fine and information robust before AI. Data centers will be obsolete in 2-3 years after they ate built because technology will change. They will rape our open land in “the garden state”, use excessive water resources, overburden our electrical infrastructure, increase prices, and impact the environment with noise and vibration. Just say NO!!

• Joseph Papaycik

• Michael Horowitz

  A data center is proposed less than 1 mile from where I live. I am concerned about utilities, effects on infrastructure, health and safety, and resource usage, and sound and toxic contaminants.

• Joni Smith

  I urge Governor Sherrill to enact statewide moratoriums on large‑scale data centers in the state of New Jersey, but in particular within our Pinelands in Ocean County. These facilities consume enormous amounts of electricity and water, threaten local aquifers, and generate constant noise and heat. Manchester’s fragile ecosystem and residential water supply cannot sustain industrial‑level cooling demands. Protecting the Pinelands means protecting our forests, our groundwater, and our residents from skyrocketing utility costs and irreversible environmental damage. Just say, "NO TO DATA CENTERS IN NJ>"

• Gabriele Hessmann

  Our residence, schools, and parks are too close to the proposed site. These data centers create devastation that is an atrocity to the environment and to the preservation of humanity and nature.

  Because data centers have NO RIGHT OR PLACE in the state of NJ. They DO NOT create jobs, they DO NOT support the local economy, they DO NOT provide any intrinsic value to this Earth. All data centers should be destroyed because they are pock mark on this society. Keep data centers out of NJ and out of this country. Anyone who supports data centers makes me sick and should be put on trial.

  We do not have enough water, especially in the southern half of the state to supply the citizens, the environment AND data centers. I also think the people in this state should not have to pay the electric bill for AI companies.

• Lynnée LoCicero

  I intentionally moved to the Pinelands and farmlands of Hammonton to avoid industrial impacts on communities. Data Centers need state-coordinated planning esp with regard to electricity and hidden community-borne expenses we can’t afford

• Tina Cooper

  Data centers are an environmental nightmare that harm the land and wildlife, and they steal our water resources. They also put our sensitive information at great risk. Trump’s push for AI is terrifying and highly suspicious. He is spying on Americans and using AI as an instrument of hate and revenge. I voted for Mikie Sherrill because she promised to push back on Trump’s atrocious agendas and policies. Now is your chance, Governor, and this is a big one! KEEP DATA CENTERS OUT OF NJ! ENACT THE MORATORIUM!

• Barbara Haug-Kobell

  I'm deeply concerned about our environment. New Jersey has a long history of companies exploiting our residents and our environment. How many Super Funds do we have? New Jersey has intelligent citizens. New Jersey has creative and innovative citizens. We can do better! Talk to and LISTEN to your citizens! Protect our Pinelands, protect Jersey.

• Chris Dionisio

  The last thing we need are new data centers.

• Mary Grove

  Data centers bad for environment, our health, and palentir is involved so what are they doing with the data. The data center at the old steel mill in Fairless Hills, Pa NDA’s non disclosures. Why? What are they hiding ? Amazon plans on only using a fraction of the facility and then rent to others like ICE federal government. There is a bigger issue and it is control and surveillance and of citizens. I believe data centers need to be stopped because they have a bigger plan of digital money, ID and surveillance. Loss of our privacy and freedom.

  AI is an overhyped technology and we should not be investing as much as we are into it when doing so poisons the water in our communities, drives up energy demand and thus emissions fueling climate change, and ultimately uses money and resources that should be taxed to fund public infrastructure that actually serves people instead of oligarchs.

• Mary Paulson

  Data centers are costly to your constituents and they destroy the environment!

• Mari-Anne Mahlau

  Data centers have been wreaking havoc on communities across the country and depleting precious water supplies as climate change increases drought conditions. They create noise, do not create jobs, and have been using eminent domain to remove people from their lifelong homes. We need guardrails and common sense. There should be a moratorium on allowing tech companies to destroy our rural communities.

• Joan M Haas

  Not enough research has been done on these centers. Building needs to halt now because it will impact the people and water resources forever.

• Katharine Armstrong

  New Jersey already has a bad reputation for past mistakes of putting corporations over people and wildlife. New Jersey needs to show the country that you can turn things around. New Jersey truly is a beautiful state with amazing wilderness and parks. Once these data centers are in place there is no turning back and the damage could be devastating for the people and wildlife.

• colleen kleinow

  more study needed on impact to the public and environment

• Susan Eiseman-Hays

  I can very concerned about data centers depleting the aquifer and overtaxing the electric grid. Additionally, the noise level is not acceptable for nearby residents. Lastly, data centers do not bring jobs, just deplete resources.

• Pamela Werner

  The long lasting effects of these data centers are not known, but the short term effects in areas where they have been built show that they are quite detrimental and hazardous. The long term will be even worse based on that. Preserve our land and peoples’ health.

  I am a strong supporter of the environment and Nj’s natural resources. I believe in New Jersey’s motto as “The Garden State”. Water is critical to maintaining this motto, and over the last few years, NJ has teetered close to drought conditions. I understand the need for business in supporting NJ. Data centers require an inordinate amount of water due in part to their size in order to keep the computers from overheating and they have had a negative impact on their environment due to sound and light pollution. A moratorium is needed to review the impact and to create a responsive plan.

  I live here the pines are rich in history and nature and need to be protected

• Hugh Goffinet

  Ex NJ resident who still cares to fight the spread of AI data centers over our natural environment

• Deborah Capelli

  The environmental damage, increasing climate heat, releasing toxic chemicals into our air, water and land soil. Massively depleting our water sources, pushing our power grid causing massive power outages nation wide! The Negatives FAR outweigh anything positive these data "destructors" are providing! THEY ALSO DON'T MAKE ENOUGH PROFIT TO EVEN COVER THESE BILLIONS IF NOT MORE OF OUTSTANDING LOANS TO BUILD THEM!

• Tessa Ecker

  Data centers negatively impact the local ecosystem and surrounding residents

• Catherine Bacon

  Would like to move back to area but now reluctant due to threat of AI data centers

• Renee Dillon

  The pine barrens is an essential resource which needs to be protected. The impacts of data centers need to be researched thoroughly to limit impacting this resource.

• Brian Kelly

  Protect our aquifers!

• Michele Pizzutello

  Protect our land, water supply, future, and maintain our integrity in life.

• Teresa Mann

  Data centers are polluting the water and destroying the environment.

• Pamela Tracey

  Data centers are ruining our quality of life between the massive amounts of water as well as the electric which have caused our electric & water bills to skyrocket. My town & neighboring town did not sign anything to prevent data centers from moving in and now they may be giving it a green light at a former Nestle factory.

• Robert Pepper

  Protect our natural resources.

• Alastair Small

  Our neighbors in Lower Mt Bethel Township PA are currently fighting a 1.2 GW, 500 acre data center right on the Delaware River. Pollution, emissions, water use, displaced wildlife, and NOISE know no state boundaries.

• Mark Melvin

  These "ai" hype-bubble datacenters are using precious water resources, driving up the costs of electricity, degrading electric grid power quality, drastically inflating the cost of computer hardware, and often using up valuable real-estate, all to power a billionaire-led theft-machine that is degrading society on every level through misinformation and further concentration of power and wealth. They're gambling obscene amounts of money on this bubble, and you know they're going to try for a bailout to make the public pay when their gamble fails. And all of this is being done against the wishes of so much of the public. They keep forcing this crap on us every way they can, despite increasing dissent. They need to be stopped, ASAP.

• Matthew DeAngelis

  I approve a pause on this type of development until we can better understand the effects on the community and local environment.

• Michael Ferrett

  The people do not want AI, the people do not want data centers. No concessions to billionaires and corporations.

• Melanie Bilbow

  Extensive studies need to be performed on the impact these hyper data centers are having on our environment. It is already well known that citizens and wildlife are suffering the consequences both physically and financially. They are not sustainable at this time.

• Jenson Kercsmar

  There's no reason why we should be replacing Forests with these data centers. The woods have done more for me than AI ever has or will ever do

• Evan DeAngelis

  My love for the pines down Jersey and all the natural world.

• Aidan Bilbow

  AI centers cause massive devastation to the environment and livelihood of people living near them

• DANIEL LASKOWSKI

  Protecting our Garden State

• Donna Hanlon

• Kenneth Mann Jr

  AI and Data Centers are one of the largest threats to our environment, our culture, and the natural beauty of New Jersey. They can not be allowed to continue under their current extremely destructive business plan.

• Michael Hanlon

  The New Jersey pinelands is a staple of New Jersey greenery and a direct refuge for a plethora of wildlife and fauna. We respectfully ask you to enact a three-year moratorium on new data center approvals in New Jersey while the State conducts a comprehensive review of their impacts.

• KEN BEUKELAER

  strain on both energy and water resources in south jersey.

• Mike Hedden

  NO AI DATA CENTERS! THIS IS DYSTOPIAN AND IT IS AGAINST HUMANS RIGHTS! They pollute more than vehicles.

• Michelle Square

  Protection of our environment. Concern over the impact of such facilities on our utilities. Potential health concerns over such plants, I do not think that's has been studied enough at this point. Impact on the community.

• Amelia Maio

  I believe that all projects being considered for data centers must be postponed until all consequences and effects have been properly inspected, and the voices of the people have been heard about the matter.

• Christine Staton

• Cori Bishop

  I only left NJ last year and I still have family there so I'm very concerned with the wellbeing of Jersey. Data centers are bad news and a waste of resources.

• Don Greenberg

• Brad Gibbons

  Cause I care

• Jacob Fryland

  The people do not want this and have not approved of it. It is being done undemocratically.

• Scott Finlay

• Kris Harshman

  Data centers hurt our communities!

• Marianne Evans

• Stephanie Trager

  I live in New Jersey and urge you to pause the proliferation of data centers until there is adequate understanding of the environmental impact and human effects of these massive industrial developments that are destroying water, killing life, and causing undue burden on the electric grid. There is NO undoing these monstrosities once they've destroyed towns, counties, land, forests, water, animals, insects, and human health. STOP Stephanie Trager, ESQ

• Robert McErlean

• Steven Russell

  Data centers do nothing to benefit people, further strain limited resources, and harm the air land and water around them.

• Victoria McErlean

  Data centers will destroy the Pinelands

• Donna Zucker

  Because this is our country and all elected officials work for us and nobody is listening to us the people whose land this is. We do not want data centers. We do not want 5G and we do not want smart meters and we demand that all of them be removed. You have ruined the state the last two administrations and now this one has already begun her reign of terror. You are our employees and you can be fired and we are looking into it so you’d better start doing what the people want and not what the agenda wants. You’re gonna have a revolution on your hands and so is the rest of the country so you better shape up and stuff violating our rights and our land and our lives. Stop dictating what we must do because the constitution says that we get to decide what laws we want or ways of life we want and you are supposed to enforce what we the people want. Not a single person I’ve asked can remember a day when we were asked what we want. Read the constitution then make your decision about the data centers and remember what the people told you they want because you’re gonna get thrown out and impeached.

• Peggy King

  I don't think the giant data centers are good for people or the environment.

• Tyler Crepeau

  NO DATA CENTERS

• Ronay Schaeffer

  Enact a statewide moratorium on data center construction

• Rita Costello

  Please place a halt to AI data centers in our Garden State. Pause allows NJ to further consider public health risks, energy demands, and environmental impacts before knee jerk reactions to move forward despite all the unknowns and unanticipateds before NJ is irreversably damaged. Do you want an AI data centers in your backyard???? NIMBY!!!

• Cynthia Hamblin

  Please no data centers protect our environment. Too much is unknown. We do know it will impact water, air quality, taxes, property values, etc We need farms not data centers

• Alisa Zarra

• Robert Hamilton

  We cannot keep letting the elites force things on us. NO ONE wants these things raising electricity prices, destroying water resources, or fueling an AI push that will destroy entire industries and further concentrate wealth at the top. NO MORE DATA CENTERS

• Hailey Lynch

  ai is unnecessary for our lives and only wanted by the elites, no one wants this.

• Rita Wood

  I am a member of the Pinelands Alliance. Just read the front page article on the data centers.

• John Fraser

  We are in severe droughts almost every year. We cannot afford to allow data centers to deplete our aquifers , which we rely on for our water.

• Jessica Fleming

  I'm concerned because we don't know the full impact of data centers on our environment yet. And if NJ becomes overrun with data centers, we will be left paying a price that not only isn't worth it but is also irreversible.

• Joanne Lindner

  Our Electric and Water infrastructure must be updated. Many people are on well water. Data Centers should Never be near homes with Wells. Study the effects of these centers on the environment before Any Action is taken in the Most Densely populated State in All of USA!

• Susan Kriney

  We need our water. Keep data centers out of NJ!

• Dore Scalzo

  Do not want the water pollution, Increase of electricity which will fall back on us residents causing higher rates for electricity or uncontrollable noise from these data centers.

• Emily Ivy

  I want to protect our health, save our farms and open spaces, and keep our cost of living down. My town is turning into a city and I worry about what is being done to our farmlands and lesser developed areas that I do not see regularly.

• Melissa Strouse

  I care about the environment and making sure we leave it well loved for future generations. I also care about my community in my adopted state of NJ.

• Alison Jones

• justine Myers

  I feel that we have to much development going on in south Jersey we are loosing green space including farms and trees. We are also in a major drought effecting our water usage water supply this could effect our crops and our well being. Please stop

• Susan Zammit

  Preservation of land and water are paramount in maintaining resources for generations to come. Our predecessors must have clean water and open lands for sustenance to ensure life continues long after data centers become obsolete.

• Doug Anderson

  Don't want data centers until they are properly investigated!!

• Louise Sampson

  Vehemently opposed to the impact on our communities without meaningful stidies

• Maureen Reisinger

  Only Thoughtful, well studied and planned industrial expansion including data banks should be considered prior to approvals.

• Julie Rockhill

  Structures that use our water at the rate of millions of gallons PER DAY are detrimental and unacceptable. Also the " noise factor" and other health risks for homes that are in close proximity...including the surrounding wild life and the destruction of our land.Please stop!!!

• Mairead Jensen

  We respectfully ask you to enact a three-year moratorium on new data center approvals in New Jersey while the State conducts a comprehensive review of their impacts. Regards, Mairead Jensen

• Clare and Charles Sapienza-Eck

  Very concerned about drought in NJ and data centers use of water coming out of out aquifers without more research and study.

• Patricia Wallace

  Do not want a Data Center in or near Ocean County.

• Joel Paley

• Jennifer Sammut

• Nancy Paley

  I am passionate about the development of too many data centers.
