From the meeting
The proposed data center rules would require a decommissioning plan and financial assurance equal to 125% of estimated removal costs. The plan would cover equipment removal, slab and foundation removal, hazardous material remediation, and site revegetation. This is still a draft requirement, but it signals future surety, bonding, and site-restoration needs for any data center developer.
