Peter Hubbard, a candidate for the Georgia Public Service Commission representing District 3, criticized OpenAI’s plan to build a $20 billion data center in Effingham County, Georgia. The project is facing scrutiny over its potential impact on water, infrastructure and the environment. While the county says the facility will undergo extensive reviews covering traffic, power, water use, wetlands and stormwater, residents remain concerned about how the massive development could affect the community and its resources.
