The Chelan Douglas Port Authority presented plans this week for a nearly $17 million cooling water site that would sit less than a mile from the data centers.
Groundbreaking on the first of three buildings in the 5300 block of Malaga-Alcoa Highway is expected to get underway this fall if all goes well with the permitting process.
The process will require a $25,000 prepayment to the Bonneville Power Administration for design, material and labor so the Administration can make upgrades at its Valhalla Switchyard.
