THE PUBLIC REGULATION COMMISSION APPROVES PNM’S APPLICATION TO PROVIDE POWER FOR FACEBOOK, SHOULD IT CHOOSE TO MOVE A DATA CENTER TO LOS LUNAS. THE APPROVAL CAME WEDNESDAY. PRC ASSOCIATE GENERAL COUNCIL JUDITH AMER TELLS US IT’S A COMPLEX TRANSACTION. SHE SAYS PART OF THE APPLICATION INCLUDES A SOLAR FACILITY.
LOS LUNAS NOW HAS A BETTER CHANCE AT WINNING THE DATA CENTER BECAUSE UTAH … THE OTHER STATE COMPETING FOR IT … HIT A SNAG WHEN SALT LAKE COUNTY COUNCILORS SAID THEY’D REJECT THE 240 MILLION DOLLAR TAX BREAK BEING PROPOSED FOR FACEBOOK.
