These data centers can put out 96 to 105 decibels, and that goes on 24/7. As a former first grade teacher for thirteen years… I cannot imagine what that would be like to be in the classroom and have this constant hum. That noise has also been known to create anxiety and sleep trouble and hypertension.

I speak for over 700 children and their families at these two schools, Pauline South and Pauline Central., that will be impacted within a 2 mile radius of the proposed data center.
