The record, newest first

  1. Marcellus Drilling News reported the plan at 1.1 million sq ft, naming Sippel Development and TriEnergy as developers. (Marcellus Drilling News, Oct. 14, 2026)

  2. Supervisors adopted a data center ordinance amid strong resident opposition. (TribLive, Oct. 13, 2026)

  3. TriEnergy applied to the township for a land use permit for a $25 million data center. (TribLive, Oct. 13, 2026)

  4. Chapter 105 water obstruction and encroachment permit application (E6505225-014) submitted to DEP; DEP also lists an issued PAG-02 construction stormwater permit. (Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, Oct. 31, 2026; Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, Oct. 31, 2026)

Conflicts and open questions

  • Building size 1 million sq ft (TribLive) or 1.1 million (Marcellus Drilling News).
  • Tenaska plant capacity reported as 950 MW (TribLive) and 940 MW (MDN).
  • TribLive says the Westmoreland Conservation District approved a permit for a warehouse in January 2025 that does not mention a data center; DEP's tracker lists an issued PAG-02 (PAC650364), possibly the same permit (not confirmed).
  • Coordinates from DEP tracker.
  • TribLive names Douglas Sippel as a governor of Stanton Farm LLC; only Marcellus Drilling News names Sippel Development Co. as a developer.

The full record

Status note
Land use permit application filed in May 2026; township review waits on DEP sewage approval.
Power note
No load published; the 940-950 MW Tenaska Westmoreland gas plant is about a mile away, and the developer would not say whether it would buy power from it.
