Notes

Proposal at Block 28 Section 23 Hume. On the date checked, the ACT Conservator's published decision rejects the Environmental Significance Opinion application, finding likely significant environmental impact (including proposed clearance of the site and mature native trees) and indicating that an Environmental Impact Statement process, and possibly a Commonwealth EPBC referral, would be required. This is not a final refusal of a data centre on the site. W.Media reports CDC saying planning and assessment work is ongoing.
