Summary

On October 16, 2026, SEA's Valparaíso regional office resolved relevance consultation PERTI-2026-9361 for "Data Center La Pólvora" by declaring that the project is not required to enter Chile's environmental impact assessment system before execution. The resolution restates the proposal (a data-centre building on a 5.2 ha lot in La Pólvora, an on-site 110/23 kV substation fed from SE La Pólvora by a 583.6 m line, an 18-month construction phase and up to 54 emergency generators totalling 151.2 MW of backup) and the proponent's statement that no works had been executed or were under way. It expressly leaves the sectoral authorisations required for execution outstanding, so the project remains announced: no building permit, physical works or operation are established. evidence

Location details

Coordinates: -33.08482, -71.61994
Geometry licence: all-rights-reserved
Use scope: Project locator
Scope class: centroid_of_proponent_fenced_site_polygon_in_regulatory_filing
Authority: Compiled location reference
Source entity: Campus
Method: planar_centroid_of_proponent_kmz_cerco_polygon_verified_inside
Derivation: direct_geometry
Precision scope: Centroid of the 4.42 ha "Cerco" fence polygon in the proponent's KMZ, verified inside it and about 6 m from the edge of the planned data-centre building polygon. The form's ten declared points are boundary vertices (principal V01 is a corner), so no single declared centre point exists. It is not a surveyed footprint.
Horizontal uncertainty: 187 m
Geometry evidence: 06669aff

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
