The interview topic is data center water readiness. The angle is that communities are being asked to approve massive data center projects before they fully understand their water supply, groundwater potential, drought risk, and long-term water availability. A July 31 Congressional Research Service report gives this new weight, finding that no one can actually say how much water US data centers use, since there is no national assessment and facility-level usage is often bundled into a utility's general customer data and never made public. The story isn't anti-data center. It is about helping communities know what water they actually have before the vote, not after problems show up.
