Project Springbank concept plans DRI

BARTOW COUNTY, Ga. — Atlas Development, LLC, the company behind a $17 billion data center proposed for development in Coweta County, filed plans for another multibillion-dollar data center, this time in Bartow County.

While Project Sail is planned for development by Atlas in Coweta for $17 billion, the newly proposed Project Springbank will be $4.5 billion.

According to planning documents submitted to the Georgia Department of Community Affairs’ Regional Planning office show the scope of the project is about half the size of the one in Coweta County.

The Project Springbank development proposal says the facility would be made up of six buildings over a total of 2.27 million square feet and will use closed-loop technology to reduce its water and sewer demands.
