Data center battles are brewing across Kentucky. Help us report on them

From Cave City to Carter County, fights over where to put data centers—or whether they should exist at all—are cropping up across Kentucky.

Hellbender Newsroom is reporting on data centers in Kentucky, and we need your help. 

Yes, you. 

Fill out our data center survey and let us know what is going on in your Kentucky community regarding data centers, and how you feel about it. 

Kentucky has 120 counties, and we can’t be everywhere at once. Whether your community is weighing possible data center regulations, or fighting back against a center coming to town, let us know. Even if nothing is happening in your area, we still want to hear your thoughts, so fill out the survey

Don’t worry: We’ll ask for your name in the survey, but we won’t post anything you say without your consent.
