How to read this page. Every fact links to the source it rests on; a number in brackets is its place in the source list. A figure no source gives reads Not disclosed, and nothing is estimated. Where sources give different figures, each is shown with who gave it, and another source's figure never stands in for the record's own. Entries are added and never overwritten; corrections are listed under What happened.

Jobs once it runs, also reported: 12,000 jobs, 2026 (Courier & Press: Posey County has over 12000 jobs currently, with nearly a quarter in manufacturing and less than four percent in farming.); 900 jobs, 2026 (Courier & Press: Data center data centers created approximately 900 jobs in Quincy, Washington for engineers, pipefitters and electricians.) .

The developer's figure is what the company said; what a permit allows is the ceiling a permit sets; measured means observed. Water is in gallons a day or a year, whichever the source stated; a tax claim given as a range shows both ends, each linked to the source that gave it.

Still not public, and where it would show up
