ST. MARYS — A data center developer said Wednesday before a large crowd that a proposed facility will not use local aquifers as its main source of water.

Beltline Energy representative Ryan Sanders told the crowd of more than 200 people at Perry Memorial Armory that because of regulations the company would not use local aquifers for their main source of water. Beltline is a developer from Atlanta trying to secure land and gain local government approval in Pottawatomie County for a large-scale data center that Sanders has said would represent a $15 billion investment for the region.

One of the options for water use Beltline is exploring is the use of trucks to both truck water into the facility and take water waste out.
