Oregon Govenor Tina Kotek asks state environmental regulator to pause permits, introducing de facto data center moratorium

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek has instructed the state's environmental authority to suspend the issuing of permits, creating a de facto freeze on data centre construction. This intervention follows an existing restriction that barred projects from occupying state-owned land. Consequently, upcoming developments in the state will face regulatory interruptions while permitting frameworks are re-evaluated.
