Executive Order 62 (July 14, 2026) tells DEC to hold all incomplete discretionary permit applications for building or expanding data centers that use, or can use, 50 MW or more until the Department of Public Service finishes a statewide environmental impact statement; local permits are not covered, and the order sets no end date.
