(WSAZ) - Residents along University Lane in Mason County have been impacted by severe flooding over the weekend, stemming from the construction of a nearby data center in the area.
On Saturday, reports of extensive flooding in the area began to circulate on social media, with some residents stating the flooding had damaged parts of their homes.
“And now that this has happened to my house and my property, I’m worried about my children’s safety and my safety,” said Brandy Michael. “Because now our house has been exposed to all this water underneath of it. I’m worried about mold. I’m worried about our health and safety.”
The Data Center is part of the Monarch Compute Campus, launched in partnership with Nscale, a project announced by Fidelis New Energy earlier this year.
Monarch Site Manager Jason Bechtle released a statement to WSAZ on Sunday, stating plans to cover cleanup and repair costs for residents.
“This weekend’s storm dropped about a month’s worth of rain on us in 48 hours and put the whole area under a Flash Flood Warning. We were on site within an hour of the first call and we haven’t left. We’ve got restoration crews at each affected resident’s garage, hotel rooms for anyone who needs one, meals for anyone impacted, and we’re covering all cleanup and repair costs.”
