THE DALLES, Ore. (AP) – The city of The Dalles, Oregon, has filed suit in an effort to keep Google’s water use a secret.
The move Friday comes ahead of a key City Council vote on a $28.5 million water pact between the city and the tech giant.
The Oregonian/OregonLive reports the city is seeking to overturn a ruling earlier from Wasco County’s district attorney, who found Google’s water use is a public record.
Google is contemplating two new server farms on the site of a former aluminum smelter in The Dalles, where it already has an enormous campus of data centers on its property along the Columbia River.
