By Local Princeton news desk

Princeton officials are concerned about the potential emissions impact of a proposed data center in neighboring South Brunswick.

The planned backup diesel generators will run during power outages, routine testing, and periods of peak demand, affecting air quality and public health in Princeton.

The Mayor and Council of Princeton urge the DEP to deny the air permit application in its present form and consider alternative backup power sources, such as solar or wind energy.
