Sites Nationwide

Faced with a United States Environmental Protection Agency Consent Agreement and Final Order, a confidential industrial laundry client engaged Geosyntec to evaluate air emissions at 35 of its facilities in 15 states and bring them into compliance with federal and state requirements governing air emissions and permitting. The client needed help managing the operation as well as engaging in regulatory agency negotiations to obtain the necessary permits.

CyrusOne, LLC (CyrusOne), the owner of numerous data center sites, needed assistance to determine if air permits were required for both new and existing data centers across the United States. The data centers are equipped with diesel-fired emergency generators to provide backup power to the data center in case of power failure. These emergency generators include belly tanks to store diesel fuel. New data center sites were ready to begin construction and obtaining an air permit (if required) was determined to be a critical path item to meet the project schedule. Sites were evaluated for diesel-fired emergency generator air permit requirements in Arizona, California, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia.
