The Washtenaw County Conservation District and students from Eastern Michigan University (EMU) will be testing well water samples on Saturday, October 4th from 9am to 3pm at Room 2304, 705 N. Zeeb Rd. Some of the tests that will be run include nitrate/nitrite, pH, turbidity and more. This event is for those who are interested in getting their private wells tested (city’s regularly test their drinking water). We suggest that samples be at least 8oz and less than 48hrs old. For further questions, please contact Paul Buzzard, Paul@washtenawcd.org

Seems it may be a good time for local townships and cities to band together, pool resources, and start lobbying Lansing for legislation to prevent this type of threat of lawsuit to continue to transform our landscape. As understood, this land was zoned in a fashion that would prohibit this data center.
This. Going forward, communities in Michigan will be especially susceptible because of our abundant fresh water. As farmers lose crops and federal support, there will also be a push from big tech to swoop in and buy up land. We're already seeing these fights against data centers in Howell, Ypsi, and further north.
Feel bad for the people around there. Wells will run dry and future problems that are unseen will occur. I am sorry for you nearby that we couldn’t have stopped this mess.
Sunny, with a high of 79 and low of 46 degrees. Sunny for the morning, clear in the afternoon and evening,
