Protecting Okmulgee County's Future
A community coalition for Okmulgee families.
We are an Okmulgee-based, community-driven coalition dedicated to protecting:
The health of our neighbors and their children,
Our existing businesses,
Our property values,
And our children's futures.
We will also be working to join forces with Dewar, Shulter, Morris, Haskell, and Boynton, as all these towns will be affected by low water pressure.
We will also be offering to help Henryetta, Grayson, Hoffman, Eufaula, the U.S. Corps of Engineers (USACE), Deep Fork National Wildlife Refuge, and the Okmulgee State Game Management Area. Soon the Deep Fork River Basin, Wolf Creek, and Okmulgee Creek will be contaminated by industrial chemicals in the form of water and air pollution that will work its way south toward toward Henryetta, Grayson, Hoffman, and Lake Eufaula.
Okmulgee County is home to eight federally endangered or threatened species living at the Deep Fork National Wildlife Refuge and the Okmulgee State Game Management Area. These areas are in both the Illness Zone and the Hum Zone, which will drive the animals away from their federally and state-protected habitat.
We Must Stop This Now!
The proposed data center project will pose a serious health risk to the City of Okmulgee, Henryetta, Grayson, Hoffman, and Lake Eufaula.
Recent peer-reviewed medical studies suggest that toxic chemical pollution from the data center's diesel engines, cooling system chillers, and toxic evaporation ponds will directly impact 611 households and 27 businesses across the Primary and Secondary Illness Zones.
Peer-reviewed medical research is proving that low-frequency noise pollution from data centers will affect residents and businesses up to 2.5 miles from the facility. Low-frequency noise causes learning disabilities and cognitive decline.
Water is Life. The data facility will be one of the first customers tied into the supply line, and the Okmulgee Municipal Authority (OMA) will be contractually obligated to sell a set amount of water daily before county citizens' needs. Yes, contracts override city water services for taxpayers and paying citizens.
Lake Okmulgee and Dripping Springs were never designed for, and are not large enough to supply the water needed daily for a closed- or open-loop data center, let alone a potential hyperscaler center.
