The record, newest first

  1. When adopting a new data center ordinance, city officials said it did not apply to the QTS project, whose zoning predated the moratorium and whose site plan was already approved. (WRDW/WAGT, Sept. 15, 2026)

  2. At a second community meeting, QTS said it had applied for an Army Corps of Engineers permit for impacts to aquatic resources and that steps after its purchase included a height variance. (WRDW/WAGT, June 24, 2026; QTS Data Centers, Oct. 30, 2026)

  3. QTS presented the project to the Augusta Commission, citing about $2 billion in investment and 160 to 220 permanent jobs. (The Augusta Press, Feb. 4, 2026)

  4. Richmond County approved the expanded six-building plan for Eagle South LLC after a second regional-impact review. (The Augusta Press, Dec. 28, 2025)

  5. The land was rezoned from agricultural and manufactured-home residential to general business for the original T5 project of four two-story buildings. (The Augusta Press, Dec. 28, 2025)

Conflicts and open questions

  • The 2022 rezoning date is given as a year only (2022-01-01 placeholder) and the 2024 approval as a month (June 2024, 2024-06-01 placeholder).
  • QTS does not disclose MW for security reasons; no MW is recorded here.
  • Floor area is reported as almost 2.2 million sq ft (Augusta Press, Feb. 2026) and as more than 1.4 million sq ft (Augusta Press, Dec. 2025); the larger figure is the more recent.
  • The Augusta Press gives the tract as '163' without a unit; acreage is left blank.
  • QTS's page says the first building is expected in spring 2028; the QTS page is undated and is cited with the access date 2026-10-30.
  • WRDW called the site 'under construction' in Sept. 2026, while the QTS page says further approvals are still required; status reflects the city staff account.
  • QTS's page says zoning approvals came in 2022, 2024 and 2025.
